I love going out with mates, going to festivals, gigs, radio presenting and DJing. I'll mix just about anything from any genre so long as I like it. My vinyl collection includes indie, electro, rock, hip hop, funk, soul, trip hop, breakbeat, drum and bass, nu skool breaks, reggae, 80's stuff, battle breaks and a whole lot of stuff I probably couldn't even categorise. As long as it's got an even beat, I'll mix it.
Interesting, passionate people
