About Me

I've been DJing for over 10 years and along the way I've learnt about how DJing has become an art form in its own right.I would consider my style to be diverse and in tune to the crowd (& Promoters) tastes. I play an experimental sound but keep my roots as close to my influences.I 1st started Djing when I was 15, just messing around with a freind of mines 1210's, Playing Drum & Bass and Old Skool. I was in a Band when I was @ college, but that never really took off. I became more involved in DJing when I was 19. After a holiday in Ibiza (ironically enough), I was inspired to "have a go" at Djing, and my interest developed, I had only 1 draw back, I'm Tone deaf - meaning I can mostly decipher my mixing thru my Right ear, and use my left ear to balence my mid range & Hi sound.Its a weird concept as u all may agree, but its a technique that I've developed, However my development as a DJ took some time. I've managed to play out @ Events quite compitently. So it hasnt been too much of a hinderence to my abilities.As times have changed my taste and sounds have also. For a main bulk of my time playing out, I played Chunky Hard House and Hardstyle.I took 5 years out through family commitments, and recently came back onto the DJing scene Playing Electro House and Progessive Tech Trance.My direction has always been in music, and recently I started developing on my Production abilities.I was Brought up on artistes such as: Dire Straits, Pink Floydd, The Doors, and NE thing that was potentially understood as Trancy Rock (LOL). So my influence has always been in a trance/electro element.As for the future, I wish to develop my sound further, and introduce my music to the world, Im a lifeologist in beleif, and I feel every day is a lesson, and that also is a key understanding in my music.
