Lifelong music fiend. Started d.j.ing in 2001 after spending many moons playing in different bands. When I have my perfect crew on the dance floor, I drop in everything, Kitchen sink is coming to a town near you!!
I am also a band nerd having played drums and bass since 1992 with a strong background in improvisation. For the last year I have been playing drums with Orangutron and for the last couple months have been playing drums for Lazy Preacher . Word up to Jacki Liebezit from Can and Tony Allen from Fela Kuti for mentoring me, unbeknownst to them.
Aside from my music, I try and keep my eyes open as wide as I can day to day. I am a book devourer and generally a fan of folks that try to do what they like as hard as they can without getting too much in the way of anyone else... ..
