Music Profile
i come from a really musical family, my step dad use to run reggae and dub sound systems and sound clashes, Steppa Sound, in moss side and my mum use to run her own roots and culture, reggae and dub show, Monday Munchies on buzz and irie fm from when i was about 3 years old. dub and reggae are in my blood! my two little brothers are now garage emcees and are starting to produce their own tunes ( with help from their big bro ) and my two little sisters sing at local talent shows and work in local musical project groups.
Producing
i started producing in high school when i was 14 replicating old hip hop and dance tunes on cubase 5, i couldn't and still cant read music for the life of me but i was great at playing it by ear, i took up trumpet lessons and ended up teaching myself coz no matter how hard i try i just cant seem to transfer the sheet music data from page to my brain to my hands but play me the music and i'll figure it out in 5 minutes, thus getting an A- in music for all my practical work. i really started getting into the blues then and jive rock, chuck berry, tj hooker, bb king, ray charles were all kings of setting moods and completely submerging you into their music. around the time i started making music was when i fell in love with jungle and drum n bass, alex reese - pulp fiction blew my mind. also i was really into dance music, paul van dyke, oakenfold, sasha were blowing up everywhere with their djing skills and styles, not too keen on present day dance tho, love funky house but not been paying attention for a while now but need to get back into it! now producing takes up nearly all of my time, using Cubase SX ! - 3, Reason 3, Recylce, Wavelab, and various plugins i put every part of my life into what i make. every tune i've made reflects a point in my life may it be good or bad its in there and hopefully you'll hear it and feel it! i've had 3 of my productions signed to 4 of my productions signed to 3 different labels, Witness Records, In Da Jungle Recordings and Black Reign Recordings. all digital labels and hopefully more to come in the future.
MC'ing
It started just as a laugh about 3 years ago just writing bits and bobs with Tokane ( manchester hip hop group Mitch MC and Jay mccurdy ( www.northernkomfort.co.uk , Northern Komfort Promotions ) John Hughes, Will ( dj hesk/ www.hesk.co.uk ) ian Mr P peel, Nic ) and for Abstract Fusion ( a collective that me and DJ Hesk formed and are a growing collective across the uk, www.myspace.com/abstractfusion ), we did a couple of live shows ( M.U.M.S the word @ the font manchester/ Future Savings @ Jamfish Altrncham and Joshua Brooks Manchester ) which were big things coz i'm a dj at heart so it was mad not hiding behind a pair of decks! over time i started to get more into it, creating a strong bond with Mitch MC and forming MBR ( Mitch Bugg Rollin' ) as a MC/DJ tag team and being heavily influenced by UK hip hop, reggae, dub, soul, and old US hip hop as well as Drum n Bass, slowly but surely i started to create my own style and recieve bookings for drum n bass and hip hop events around the northwest!!
