EXPOSE HAS BEEN ON THE SCENE FOR AROUND 10 YEARS NOW... ALWAYS INRTERESTED IN MUSIC SINCE AN EARLY AGE HE GREW UP WITH HIS ELDER BROTHER CUTTING AND SCRATCHING IN THE ROOM NEXT DOOR. MANY A NIGHT WAS SPENT LISTENING THROUGH THE WALL TO THE LATEST HIP HOP, ACID HOUSE AND THE LIKE! WHEN THE CHANCE WAS THERE HE SNEAKED INTO HIS BROTHERS ROOM AND PLAYED ABOUT ON THE 1200S AND REALISTIC MIXER AND IT WENT ON FROM THERE. HE BEGAN MAKING MIX TAPES WHILST AT SCHOOL AND PASSED THEM AROUND TO HIS FRIENDS. MANY A DJ CAME OUT OF THAT SCHOOL, PERHAPS FROM HIS EARLY INFLUENCE, WHO KNOWS? AT THE TIME HE WAS STILL A BIT TOO YOUNG TO GET INTO THE CLUBS BUT NO ONE COULD STOP HIM BUILDING HIS COLLECTION OF EARLY D&B BEATS... AT THE TIME HIS WEEKEND FIX OF SOUNDS WERE GAINED FROM THE PIRATE STATIONS OF THE DAY...
EXPOSE EAGERLY SPENT ANY SPARE TIME OR CASH PURSUING HIS DJ ANGLE UNTIL HE FELT CONFIDENT TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT ALL. IN 1996 HE WAS WORKING AT A RECORD STALL IN THE HULL INDOOR MARKET. HE GOT CHATTING TO A PROMOTER OF A TECHNO NIGHT WHO WAS PUTTING POSTERS UP. AFTER A COUPLE OF MEETINGS HE ASKED IF HE WOULD MIND LISTENING TO A MIX TAPE HE HAD DONE. THE GUY AGREED AND A FEW WEEKS LATER ASKED HIM IF HE WANTED TO PLAY AT THE ROOM NIGHTCLUB WHICH WAS QUITE SIMPLY HULLS MECCA OF CLUB CULTURE. IT WAS ONLY A PRIVATE PARTY ON A TUESDAY, BUT HEY, IT WAS A DREAM COME TRUE. THE NIGHT WAS PREDOMINATLEY HOUSE MUSIC SO A NERVOUS EXPOSE TOOK TO THE DECKS AT 1AM NOT KNOWING WHAT TO EXPECT.! HE NEED'NT HAVE WORRIED, THE FLOOR WAS RAMMED WITHIN 10 MINUTES. HE STARTED WITH A PESHAY TUNE ON MO'WAX WITH A 2 MINUTE INTRO AND NO BEATS! OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF YEARS HE FLIRTED WITH PRODUCTION ON AN AMIGA USING OCTOMED, A 4 TRACK SEQUENCER! AS TIME PASSED HE BAGGED A FEW BOOKINGS AT VARIOUS LITTLE NIGHTS IN THE CITY. IN JANUARY 99 EXPOSE AND A WORK MATE POOLED FUNDS AND BOOKED UPSTAIRS OF THE HAWORTH ARMS AND BEGAN LOST IN BASS. THE DJS ON THE NIGHT WERE EXPOSE AND RESIDENT SLIDER. IT WENT OKAY AND THEY RAN IT MONTHLY. IT HAD A NICE VIBE AND A GOOD LITTLE FOLLOWING AMONGST THE LOCALS AND STUDENTS ALIKE... THE NIGHT ESTABLISHED EXPOSE AS ONE OF HULLS FINEST D&B DJ TALENTS. EARLY ON HE HAD THE NACK OF GOOD TUNE SELECTION AND SMOOTH MIXING ABILITY. MOVING FORWARD A FAIR FEW YEARS HIS DJ SKILLS HAVE SEEN HIM PLAY AT NUMEROUS NIGHTS AND EVENTS AS GUEST AND RESIDENT. FAST FORWARD TO 2009 & THE PRODUCTION SIDE OF THINGS HAS COME TO THE FORE WHERE ALONGSIDE SLIDER THEY HAVE GONE ON TO MAKE A MARK IN THE SCENE. MARCH SAW THE RELEASE OF THE ACCLAIMED HOOKED/COSMIC SKY ON WASHINGTON BASED LABEL - TRANSLATION RECORDINGS. 2009 HAS ALSO SEEN THE LAUNCH OF DUST AUDIO FROM THE DUO WITH FIRST RELEASE ECHO CHAMBER/CAUGHT IN TWO MINDS CATCHING THE EYE OF MANY A DJ WORLDWIDE... THERES A WHOLE LOT MORE TO COME...
