This is the year of melting genres

About Me


I was always a big music fan, some of my earlieast memories are of recording tunes off the radio on to cassette. I started to DJ and MC after i first heard Jungle in 93. It was a sound that totally moved me. I was aware of the underground dance scene that gave birth to Jungle. Although i was only 6 in 91 i remember those Acid House inspired anthem. I listened to all different styles of music and still do and even tho i saw the progression it seemed that Jungle was something quite distinct from its roots.After all the 91 Acid stuff, 92 was a year when i heard a lot more Ragga, Jungle was like a fusion between these styles was totally original, a product of fusion within England. I first heard the tunes on pirate radio stations like Fantasy and SCR (now non-existent in Sheff) and eventls like Music in The Sun 1993. After I watched a BBC documentary about Jungle (defending against the multi-national record companies) i was totally hooked.Fast fwd to 2007 and i’m currently working with Junglist Alliance - R8 Records - ATM Worldwide and with the followng promotions
