About Me

Started in the early 90's into the UK punk scene for 'fear and loathing' who later became 'droogs'. Played with various bands like GBH, English dogs, peter and the test tube babies. Went from that scene in the mid 90's to hard dance at the time that House music in the UK was just taking off and we were there for the 1st Orbital, FSOL and Aphex movements, and part of megadog (when it was just a tent in a festival). The last project in the 90's was live 5 piece doing trip hop to live drum and bass, although that project was too eclectic for the time and not many were ready to accept a band that moved from one style to another in the live performance, Since then, moved to Hong Kong and given up the studio for over 7 years. This new project is the 1st coming out of the new studio. Collaborating with a number of other artists in Asia and UK and looking to finish and release later this year.
