About Me

Originally from Sheffield, Nev moved to London as a teenager and it was there where he first got interested in DJ'ing after spending time at Dream FM studio's with a friend who played on the station.
Despite not having any decks Nev started buying the tunes he had come to love and it wasn't until he returned to Sheffield at the age of 21 that he bought his first pair of decks
That was in 1997 at the same time when Speed Garage exploded into the 'National Charts' with tracks like 'Ripgroove' & 'Gunman'. The attraction to this sound was instant, it had the massive basslines of DnB/Jungle where his love for dance music started and it was easier to hear this stuff out because of the chart success.
It was around that time that he discovered 'Niche Allniter' a place House & Garage club that played in the main Speed Garage/Bassline tracks. He spent weekend after weekend in there and then become so hooked on the sound the club produced that he started to buy the tunes he was hearing.
In late 1999 after playing some private parties and putting on his own night Nev got an opportunity to play a warm up set at Niche through submitting a mixtape. It was an opportunity he grabbed and was then asked to play this set on a regular basis, from there he progressed to the early Sunday morning slots before becoming a crowd favourite playing peak time sets
Now an established name within the scene Nev is playing all over the country as well as holding down residencies @ Club Vibe, Sheffield & Twilitle Club Leeds. He also plays on London's award winning Freeze FM alongside Jamie Duggan & Shaun Banger Scott every Tuesday 10pm til Midnight and Nottingham's Kemet Radio every Thursday.
Nev also runs Nocturnal Records and it's sister labels Nocturnal Dubs & Hotplates alongside Jamie Duggan, further information on these can be found at the Nocturnal Records My Space page.
