http://www.djshodan.com

Been making tunes for quite a few years now, started making hip hop on an old amiga using trackers like Octamed (super old skool!). Got interested in Jungle about 93/94 and started making jungle tracks about 95. Unfortunately, they were absolutely rubbish and nothing ever came of them. Fell out of drum n bass in the late nineties and got back into it around 2001. Slowly started building a studio and eventually linked with Phantasy in 2003 via a mutual friend, Jay Frenzic ( ATM Magazine owner and damn fine DJ). The rest as they say is history...
