Sounds Like: IVE BEEN DJ'ING FOR 16 YEARS NOW,STARTED AT THE CHEEKY AGE OF 14.SAVED ALL MY POCKET MONEY TO GET MY FIRST DEX & MIXER AND USED TO BUY ALL MY HIP HOP VINYL IN BETWEEN.AT THIS TIME ALL THAT MATTERED WAS WATCHING THE D.M.C. VIDEO I HAD.
THEN THE HIP HOP LED INTO THE RAVE SCENE NICLEY ENOUGH FOR ME TOO BE INTO DANCE MUSIC BUT WITHOUT LOOSING THE HIP HOP ELEMENTS I LOVED SO MUCH SUCH AS THE LOOPS,SAMPLES,VOCALS AND SCRATCHES.MUSIC WISE THIS WAS A VERY STIMULATING TIME AND LOOKING BACK A VERY IMPORTANT PIONT IN MY DJ'ING.
LATER ON ENDED UP GETTING A RESIDENCY FOR PANDEMONIUM AT 16 WARMING UP FOR SOME OF MY HEROS AT THE TIME LIKE KENY KEN,FABIO,PILGRIM,NED RYDER,JUMPING JACK FROST.THIS ALSO WAS EXITING,BEING THROWN IN AT THE DEEP-END WITH A MASSIVE SOUND SYSTEM,WEIRD MIXER AND THE FIRST TIME I ACTUALLY BEAT MIXED ON 1210'S,OH AND THE FACT THERE WAS ABOUT 200 RAVERS GOING NUTS!!!!!I WAS SO SCARED,HANDS WERE SHAKING THAT MUCH I COULDNT DROP THE NEEDLE WHERE I WANTED IT,FELT SICK.BUT AT THE SAME TIME WAS LEARNING TO OVERCOME THE BIGGEST OBSTACLE "FEAR".
SINCE THOSE DAYS IVE DONE SOME REALLY COOL STUFF WITH THE CONFIDENCE BEHIND ME THAT I GAINED FROM BACK THEN.
WORKED IN A RECORD SHOP IN BIRMINGHAM FOR A WHILE(AWSOME TIMES),BECAME MONTHLY RESIDENT AT THE STEERING WHEEL (NOW KNOWN AS HIDDEN/BAMBOO),PLAYED AT THE CUE CLUB ON A COUPLE OF OCCASSIONS,WOBBLE AND A RADIO STATION.
CLOSER TO NOW I PLAYED ON A RADIO STATION IN NEW YORK WHICH WAS AN AMAZING EXPERIENCE FOR ME.THE PEOPLE ,THE CLUBS ,THE MUSIC SCENE THE RECORD SHOPS ARE SOMTHING ELSE TOO.
AND RIGHT NOW I HAVE TEAMED UP WITH TWO PROMOTERS HENRY AND IAIN WHO RUN AN EXPLOSIVE
