Pink Bomb formed: July 1996 (Original members: Rob Preston, Darren Bayton).
A UK based producer for 13 years, experiencing most success between 1997-2000 - I then took a 5 year break and now im back for another blast. My style is in no particular box thesedays, but its mostly down-tempo and chillout stuff, with the occasional outburst of pop or trance. I will try to update this page as often as time will allow. Comments or collaboration welcome....
More tracks can be found at my mp3unsigned page HERE - please drop by anytime for a chill.
