About Me


My musical journey began in the early 80's when I discovered my Dad's record collection and the likes of Chic, Herbie Hancock, Steely Dan, Average White Band, Marvin Gaye, and Michael Jackson's 'Off the Wall'.

It continued through Soul, Funk, Rare Groove, early Hip Hop and Electro.

In 1988 I was blown away by Acid House and the futuristic sounds
of Chicago and Detroit. In the 90's came Ambient, Drum & Bass, Electronica, Chill, and everything in-between.

The journey continues...
