About Me

Started out in 1997 playing tunes in various clubs, bars and parties in Glasgow, Scotland. Was mainly dropping commercial hip-hop and Rnb back then; in what were some of the leading clubs in Scotland at the time for that genre, such as Archaos, Babaza, Velvet Rooms, Trash and Cube (Planet Peach) and G2. Bars too many to mention and the free parties well that’s a different story all together; from Nightmare on Elm Bank Street that evolved into Sporadic then slightly touched the mainstream with a night in an old club called Alaska.Five years had passed and it wanted to challenge myself a little more. Next stop LDN.Started two nights one in Camden at WKD and another in Earls Court both with a capacity of around 150 peeps – these places were rammed. Hooked up with rappers, singers and turntablists and we hip-hop’d our way to party central. It was always about the music. Then started up a night in Soho at Propaganda that was well wicked; not to forget our night a Shoeless Joe’s on the South Bank next to St. Paul’s. Still liked doing free parties though – just couldn’t get enough and so ventured into the East End of LDN to meet the some serious party peeps. Crazy parties lasting day(s) were order of the chef d’jour. Brick Lane and the surrounding area was the place of choice from around 2002 to 2007 – Electroclash, hip-hop, reggae, rock and disco flavours were hot and still are.Now in Dubai writing music and occasionally going back to LDN for parties; well as often as I can really.Music, Music and deafening music. Rock on! Then Chill Out
