I began going out to nights like Pure, the Sub-Club, Club 69, Slam etc.. In 1991 I invested in my own set of decks and joined the party scene. My early influences were anything that came out of Detroit ; U.R., 430 West, Axis, M-Plant. Soon I honed my taste to the harder minimal sound.It soon became apparent that I needed to go out and do my own night, so I joined forces with Timb (radar) and started doing free parties at the Sub-Club in 95/96. That's when I really caught the bug, playing almost every weekend.I then went on to become part of E.C.M. in 1998. Becoming a resident every Thursday at the infamous Cross Bar for a couple of years, whilst there I joined forces with Breakin Point to put on nights at G1 and also did nights at Yang. This also led to various nights with other local boys. After the Cross closed, I was in the Techno Wilderness for a while, before being picked up by the Monox Crew.
