About Me

SKINNISTA - I have been into hip-hop and beats since i was at school. I was really into all the early public enemy and dela soul stuff, i saw public ememy play london docklands in 1990 and in brighton in 1989 also saw dela soul in brighton around the same time and was lucky enough to go to the DMC finals in London, i can safely say these 3 / 4 events cemented for life my intrest in hip-hop / beats / djing. When i was about 17 i got into the drum and bass scene and was basically scraping a living from that right up untill 2005 (when i had to try and get a proper job). I worked for quite a few d n bass labels including Renegade hardware, charge, true playaz, and Valve under the names Nu Balance and dj skinny, i was also part of a collective for a while called 'THE MILITIA'. I played a few of the big clubs in my time - Fabric, the end etc, had a weekly show on JUICE FM (with dj Quantum) and played abroad once every couple of months including wicked trips to U.S.A, Canada and most places in europe.So having been into hip hop for years and years and having never made a track i decided to start making a few beats in my spare time for fun instead of having to make drum and bass to make a living.At the moment i am working with 2 local mcs that call themselves 'filthy evenings' they are friends of mine, they too have never really put anything down apart from 1 or 2 things but are starting to get to grips with working in the studio. We have got more tracks coming, some deep, some dark and some piss takes, we like to have a laugh in the studio and get the vibes going that way sometimes.watch this space and let me know what you think if you can.
