About Me

Kelvin is motivated to spread his love of House music far and wide. He was born in England and grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area. He now lives in Brighton, England. Kelvin's DJ career started with humble beginnings.
Early on, he had the opportunity to cultivate his skills spinning alongside some of San Francisco biggest DJ's of that time at some of the cities' historic events. Shortly thereafter, he moved to Philadelphia and had the good fortune to become acquainted with DJ's Josh Wink and King Britt - an exposure that led him to be inspired creatively and continue to hone his skills as a DJ. He then set his sights for the South-East Coast of the United States where he was to open the only dance music specialty shop for the entire southern region, GrassRoots Records.
His knowledge and work ethic placed him as studio manager of San Francisco's infamous Moulton Studios, known worldwide for its heavy involvement in the careers of some of the hottest producers in House music. He currently works as Label Relations director for Clickgroove.com, one of Europe's premier DJ download sites.
Over 15 years behind the decks have seen him play alongside some of the music's most esteemed djs and producers, including Garth, Jeno, Raoul Belmans, Demarkus Lewis, Luke McKeehan, Buck, Chris Lum, Jay-J, Julius Papp, Miguel Migs, Iaian Carey, Mazi, Charles Spencer, King Britt, Olivier Desmet, DIY, To-Ka Project, Asad Risvi, Jay Tripwire, Jake Childs, Joey Youngman, Johnny Fiasco, Pete Moss, Larry Heard, Jovonn, Brett Dancer, David Harness, and Victor Simonelli.
A developing producer, Kelvin has released music on Tango, Spacekat, Soulstar, Multitracked, Nordic Trax, On The House, NY Soul, Kolour, Nightshift and Greenhouse. His releases have received strong acclaim in IDJ and DJ magazine's hype chart.
