About Me

Finishing up a documentary about LA's Skid Row with Pras from the Fugees entitled strangely enough - Skid Row and writing an adaptation of a wonderfully warped cult novel - Dermaphoria by Craig Clevenger (see friends below - Pras Michel and Craig Clevenger for more more details on both)...In London now...and resident DJ and programmer at the wonderful Brazillian menagerie restaurant Favela Chic.....!!And a long time ago...Set up the legendary Feva night with Mark Rae back in Manchester that spawned the mighty Fat City Records and Grand Central label. Set up long runner Off-Centre with Patrick Forge and Neil Boorman at 333 Old Street and then started up Lovebox the club and Festival with Groove Armada. Blah de blah blah....
