The Artist Previously known as Double OP!!!!!!!
I've been in love with the dance music scene as a clubber and dj since the late eighties - from old school hip hop to acid house, hardcore, jungle, techno, drum and bass, garage and house. Basically anything with beats, bleeps, breaks and bass!!
Previously known as DJ OOP, I packed my record cases in 99 to and ended up spending 6 summers in Kavos, Corfu as resident DJ in the infamous but legendary London Bar - playin uk garage, house and drum and bass.
I decided to temporarily hang up the headphones in 2006 and swap blazing hot summers in Greece for moderately warm Julys in London to start producing my own tunes. I try not to sample stuff or use other peoples stuff. All melodies, vocals and basslines are mine. I really love all kinds of music so i produce all kinds of music. I just wanna make tunes that make you wanna bounce of the walls and throw your hands up!! Im workin on it!! Anyway, have a listen and see what you think!Some of My favourite dance tunes are
Cafe Del Mar (Energy 52),
Valley of The Shadows (Origin Unknown),
Renegade Snares (Omni Trio).
We I E (Lenny D Ice),
Cada Vez (Don't know who it's by!!),
Children (Robert Miles),
Papua New Guinea (Future Sound of London),
Reminisce (Pete Rock/ CL Smooth),
Strong Island (Strong Island),
Piano Tune (Peshay)
Outer Space (Prodigy)
