About Me

Grew up in the Ply to the mouth. Got in various forms of trouble there. Cemeted various relationships through the strong hiphop community there. Namely the Flava, Planet Rock and Sureshot communites. Those were the days. Took short hiatus's in London, Australia, Canada (Montreal) and America (San Francisco). All of which I tried to investigate all the facets of the beautiful artform that is hiphop and good music in general. And also tried to educate myself in the various forms of vinyl culture and digging. Now reside in Exeter, Devon where i gained a degree and live with my beautiful girlfriend and try to scratch a living. No pun intended. Trust me the truth ain't that funny. I still continue to educate myself about records, digging and making beats. Also take part in various music workshops in the city helping kids who have all kinds of musical interests, some similar to my own. Respect to Akai, E-MU, Vestax and Technics. All the DJs, MCs, Beatsmiths, Writers and Exciters who understand true school mentality. But remember kids, dark thuggish shit can be fun too, just remember context. FFFFFRESH! to all the innovators. Peace ain't the word to play.If you want to get in contact about music matters get me through this or [email protected]. If you like or don't like what you hear, please leave some feedback. It will be warmly appreciated.

Band Members: Boomruin is just me - also one half of LoFi Epiks with DJ Sharp.
Influences: All the DJs, MCs, bands and artists I 've seen live or heard via different formats over the years. Really too many to mention. Friends, family, lovers and haters. All the places I've been, all the dirty corners and clean amenities. The people who I work closest with and share our overiding interests. All the Plymouth crew. Those that matter know who they are. The city and all you lot are serious influences. Big up the MUFF! The stacks of wax. All the pioneers and architects of the culture. All the people who support me with positive energy. And even some who choose the negative form."... A fond memory, a piece of paper or the walls in a train station"OK, here's a few names to give you a picture - Dan the Automator, Madlib, Pete Rock, Diamond D, EL-P, Mr.Len, The Beatminers, Paul Nice, Paul C, Prince Paul, Primo, Prefuse, Bomb Squad, PE, D-Styles, All ISP, Roc Raida, DJ Noise, RZA, BIG L, Most of the Bristol shit, Shadow, Cut Chemist, and way way way too much other hip hop and alround amazing music to list. But I had a go.Oh and the man like Jack Nind of Farm Ill renown.
Sounds Like: Lofi with Beats, beeps and bass. General B-boy bragging rites. Sometimes minimal, sometimes busy. Sometimes producing, sometimes scratching, always dope! haha.
Type of Label: None
