About Me

With a music Career kicked off by touring the UK as Skinnymans Dj in 1999 when he was just 16 years old, Odin has gone on to international venues and supported some of the biggest US names in Hip Hop including Mark Ronson, Africa Bambaata and Lord Finesse as well as homegrown talent from the likes of Klashnekoff, Million Dan, Rodney P, Skitz, Mr Thing, Skully, First Rate, The Nextmen, Foreign Beggars, Ty, Blade, Pyrelli, J2K, Flowdan, Virus Syndicate, Plastician, Benga, Rusko and many more…. Playing a mixed bag of Hip Hop, Funk, Soul, Reggae, Dubstep and Electronica with a heavy emphasis on turntable talent he has cemented himself as far more than just a selector. His abilities to rock a crowd caught the attention of UK Streetwear brand King Apparel who in 2007 snapped him up as their official DJ to compile their mix CD’s and organise all future parties. His past 3 mixtapes, “Back Again” (2005), “Hip Hop purist to Dubstep Tourist” (2006) and “Strictly Underground” (2007) have all received rave reviews in the printed press and will be available for FREE download soon – so watch this space. For info/bookings please [email protected]....
