About Me


First things first, im not a band as such! Im just dude that plays other peoples music to a crowd on vinyl or cd's - otherwise known as a "DJ". Id say it all started out for me when i was 15/16 years old and my mate alan whitelaw brought round a copy of the best cd ever, Trance Nation Volume 1 (back in the hey day around 1999/2000) and from the first few songs, especially Lost Witness - Happiness Happenin (lange mix) and Age of Love - Age of Love (Watch out for Stella Mix) i knew i was hooked. Got my first set of cd decks with no pitch control and shoddy gemini mixer about a year later and been slowly progressing since. Now 6 years later, gone are the old cd decks and gemini mixer and in comes the industry standard setup and things become getting a bit more serious and is no longer a hobby and have since went on to play from local events in my native town of Bo'ness and around the Falkirk area in clubs like Rosies and Room at the Top and further afield at major events such as Leeds,Reading and Download Festivals! Anyway, to sum things up, i am now getting into producing my own stuff and this site is my way of getting it out there, Cheers
