About Me

Razorcuts is a name that was created in part at least by Ninja Tunes' Strictly Kev for DJ and producer Peter Darrington, when he misheard what was being said in a conversation about one of Pete's new projects.
Pete began DJ'ing in 1984, busting the motors in his parents' 'music centre' turntable system within weeks...by 1986 feeding his love for Original funk break classics had become a full time occupation.
His professional music career took a turn for the strange, (or so it would seem to some) as he spent 5 years recording and touring with British art guitar trailblazers 'Cable'.
But, like McClaren and Bambaataa before him, Peter as always found punk rock and hip hop are different sides to the same coin and had always believed they could live together in harmony, or at the very least, a healthy suspicion of each other, just like in his record collection.
He began recording alone as Razorcuts in 2004 with his first 12" released on Soundly Beaten of London. He also records with Neil Cooper of Therapy? under the name 'Cut Hustlers'.
