BIO
I’ve been playing guitar since I was 10, was in a band from 13-18 and have been producing since the age of 13 when I got my first 4-track tape recorder and traded in my Commodore C64 for my first effects rack unit. Over the years I’ve worked as both a guitarist and producer across genres from drum n bass to rnb, hiphop, reggae, dance hall, grime, bassline and funky house.

To develop my production skills I did a stint at Pure Silk’s (UKG) studio and then worked for Evolve Records producing RnB tracks. Before that I made dnb tracks with Larry Lush (Quietman, Tall Paul). Added to my self-taught production skills, this gave me the experience needed to get straight onto a masters degree in audio production at Westminster Uni where I picked up new techniques. At that time I also produced a remix for Tricky (of Massive Attack etc) – a drum n bass mix of his Antimatter single.

I was the guitarist in the house band at various open mic nights and tournaments, from Vibes (Hackney ‘97) to the national ‘8 Mile’ MC Championships on MTV (promoting Eminem’s DVD launch). I’ve worked as a session guitarist live, in the studio and in TV performances from MTV to Parkinson and GMTV. I’m also the producer for the UK MC championship Battlescars, making hiphop battle beats for heats, to be released on Buff Recordings and mixed by DJ Pogo.

I now have a studio, The Albacore , in London docklands where I’m working on new productions. Recent tracks have been featured on 1xtra.
