About Me

I have always had a strong passion for all things musical with Jungle/DnB being the main style of music I have followed for the past 10 years. I have being mixing Dnb, Hip Hop and recently Dub/Dubstep off and on for the past 7 years now and have travelled the globe in search of all my favourite Djs, producers and bands. This has given me the inspiration and opportunities to participate in events at home and abroad. I have held residencies at clubs and have had opportunities to emcee as well as play at some great gigs, with Rumble in the Jungle being the highlight of 2006. In this national competition I placed third. The highlight for 2007 would have to be playing support for DJ FRICTION! Over the past 4 years or so I have been focusing on production under the guise of SWINDLE and M.A Dub. My main focus is DnB and Dub/Dubstep but I also like to make Hip Hop, Down beat and or anything that sounds interesting to me. I am always keen to work with other producers and do so whenever possible. I also host the NZ DnB show on Kiwi FM alongside Charlie B. We showcase the very best in NZ DnB and Dubstep. Catch us every Friday night from 11-1 around the 102 mark on ya FM dial nationwide, Sky channel 500 and kiwifm.co.nz for all the internattys

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 10/09/2006
Band Members: Swindle. Also collaborate with Tacit.
Influences: As far as DnB or Jungle goes my influences are wide and varied. Full spectrum DnB is what its about for me. Initially Roni Size's 'New Forms' and Goldie's 'Timeless' albums are what really sealed the deal for me, this is when my passion for all things Drum n bass started. Anything on the old school jungle tip is what I really love but Im always down for some fresh sound. Total Science, Calibre, Klute, Benny Page, Hive, Photek, Paradox, Breakage, Remarc, TC, Adam F, Shapeshifter, Heist, Noisia, D-Bridge, Concord Dawn, S.O.M, Keaton and Dillinja are some of my most loved producers but with so much talent out there its hard to name them all. Break, Lomax, Sabre, and Icicle would have to be my favourite at the moment. Aside from all of that Dub and Hip hop is my favourite thing to listen to when I ain't mixing, producing or dancing to DnB, YEYAHH!
