I started DJ'ing in late '91 playing hardcore at various illegal parties & beach raves. Got my first residency at Pawlett Manor for Sketch and played regularly alongside Man Like GT, Hedge, Vinyl Junkie, the one and only DJ KAY etc. I remained a resident at Pawlett playing for Sketch, GBH & Revibalize, right through until it finally closed its doors in '98.
I've played for many other promoters over the years including GBH @ Depot (Bristol), Fusion @ Bath Pavillion, AZ-OZ @ Kingstons (Taunton), Kool Waters @ Dellers Wharf (Taunton), Club M (Majorca) and have had the pleasure of playing alongside many of the greats such as: DJ Sy, Slipmatt, Supreme, Hixxy, Ribbz, Vibes & Lively, Vinyl Junkie...
I played Happy Hardcore up until about 2000, when I felt it had all started getting a bit too fast...so I started getting sets at some local clubs playing hard house & old skool.
Soon after I had to step out of the scene & take a few years out though illness, but am now ready to explode back & bring the old skool vibe to any event i'm playing at.
Old Skool is my speciality & I always try to throw something special into every set I play, from acapella mixes to unexpected tunes played at different speeds & as any one who has ever seen me play will know, I always deliver!!!
