Bounce got into hardcore at the young age of 9 after listening to a Tom Wilson tape which contained alot of the early Evolution records releases. From there on he got into the Bonkers scene, with Bonkers 3 still being his favourite one to date. It wasn't until 2001 that he decided he wanted to be a DJ, in which later that year he got his first set of decks. However at that time he could only get his hands on trance records, so hardcore was pushed aside for a while. It wasn't until HMV started stocking hardcore that he got really back into it, this was around 2003. From there on he started buying more and more hardcore. However it didn't take him long to get bored of this either...
At the beginning of 2004 he got bored of just playing everyone elses tracks and had and wanted to play something he had made. He soon got some producing software and started messing around trying to recreate other tracks. His production was pretty stale and plain until around mid 2005 where he put alot more time and effort into trying to create something worthwhile. His tracks started sounding more and more like something you would hear on the typical album today. His DJing career also took off around this time, and by September he was a resident at Glasgows only weekly hard dance night., in which he continued playing until January 2006, and then made another appearance at the Easter gig in April. He started up Underground United Digital, aswell as the radio station which were highly successful. However the radio had to come to an end due to Mayhem and Bounce no longer having any spare time.
Bounce then continued the digital label under the name of Essential Soundz, which (to date, including the Underground United releases) has clocked up 20 releases. He has remixed for the likes of CLSM (the legendary 'Time Bomb'), K-Complex (the anthem 'Unplugged' and also 'Gloria'), Haze ('I Want Freedom' and 'R.A.W') and many more. Bounce has created quite a catalogue of tracks in his very short time producing, and the plans are to create a hell of a lot more. He recently completed a remix of 'Together' by Dancelordz (the original features on HH4 CD3 track 2) which has been snapped up by Kevin Energy for a vinyl release real soon, so keep an eye out for that one.
Music however isn't the most important thing in his life, believe it or not! That position falls to his girlfriend, and they will be celebrating a year together this December.
