I didnt even start mixing for a few years but instead insisted a good tune selection was enough. Also this allowed me to play literally any style of music I liked, I played a lot of indie music and somehow managed to crowbar in Drum and Bass but after a while I realised I was practically a D.J. anyway so I decided to ditch my bass guitar and amp to invest in some C.D. decks to get started on. By then I was starting to get into Club culture and started getting into house and Trance and then Hard House. This really got me wanting more so after selling my customized V.W. Beetle (That Hurt!) I converted to vinyl and never looked back. I have been D.J.ing At Planet Angel for a fair few years now and have seen many changes but the one thing that never changes is the people. That is what makes this place different from other clubs; its always a joy to play here. I started out as a Big Beat D.J. under the name of Butterfly Pete. This was loads of fun but over time I started getting into house and breaks which didnt really suit the Image and after 3 years of wing wearing I became B-Fly which sums me up much better but still lets me keep a bit of my old identity. My Main influence is Fatboy Slim, his party style and showmanship has never been bettered, I made the decision to become a D.J. after hearing his battle with Armand Van Helden mixing fresh tracks with the classics. My career as a D.J. has been rich with variety from playing outdoor parties to arranging and playing at an event for a National Sign language charity. I have also travelled to New York to do a tour consisting of two gigs in Manhattan and one in Brooklyn. I plan to play more events in the States and maybe Europe in the Future. I’ve also been producing a few tunes and even have some remixes under my belt. It has been great to now take it up another stage and write tunes for myself, which is allowing me to start playing instruments again. Overall I have loved D.J.ing and all the experiences it has given me, it has been a fun ride, long may it continue. Be Fly my friends B-Fly
