Intelligent Bum n' Bass

About Me

I love doing fuck all, going fishing, Danish chairs, Marmite, Sunshine, Indian breakfasts, Spurs, reading the newspapers, chillis (really hot ones!), the sea, buying shit on ebay.....
I also enjoy hunting down vinyl for listening pleasure and for sampling to fuck....
I dabble in playing the keys, blues harmonica and the thumb piano for my own rarely-completed productions and also perform/produce with the beautiful Mette Bille .
I play one record after another from time to time - monthly @ Let's Get Lost and other one-offs @ Doggin', Beats n Treats (Herbal), Market Place and now and again with my friends n' colleagues @ Phonica Records
I also like to play records on one deck on the back of a bike with my antipodean buddy Luke as part of the One Arm Bandits
