Avalon Brazil tour 2008/09
Welcome to My space:-) It all started, back in the 90's for me. I was heavily into grunge/rock music, I learnt the guitar and joined a band. Did that for a few years, after playing all around the london circuit, decided to move on and ended up in Brighton. I then set off on my travels to India and africa. It wasn't until then I got tuned into trance music whilst travelling Africa at a Solipse party in Zambia 2001. Things changed, the guitar went in the cupboard and out came the decks!
When I got back I met party possible (outdoor party crew on the south coast), together we teamed up and put on some awesome underground parties In forests, warehouses, fire stations, Old casino's, where ever we could get away with it really. This was a magical time, It's also when I first started to dj and play out.
It wasn't until 2004 I decided to start Producing, I rememeber finding it harder and harder to find good tracks to play in my sets. So I decided to write them, the avalon studio was born! I started a music production course, which was strangely enough taught by matt from the green nuns, which helped alot. It was this year also I joined Wildthings Records and teamed up with Alex EVP forming a new project called Reality Grid. We went on to release a few tracks on some comps and an Album called Reality Check which came out on Wildthings Records In 2007.
After touring the globe in over 15 country's and many miles later, I decided to focus on my solo project, Avalon. You can expect a journey with full on Futuristic sounds,funky grooves, with raw hypnotic Synth lines and groovy percussion. For future and current releases check the discography below.
In 2008 Avalon was signed by Nano records, who will be Releasing his forthcoming debut album 'Distant Futures', the album is well underway and will feature Collaborations with Burn In Noise, Cosmosis and Dickster.
