About Me

Initially dj'ing was just a hobby. I bought my first pair of decks seven years ago and started buying and mixing records for my own sake. However, my friend DJ A-Rock, who was playing gigs all over Copenhagen, wanted a companion and convinced me to accompany him.
Eventually I started playing gigs of my own. I now play at Copenhagen bars Darling and Saxon's and from time to time at Hip Hop Kontoret (The Hip Hop Office), a club at home in Ideal Bar, part of renowned Copenhagen venue VEGA .
My most prominent gig was playing warm up for GURU, when he gave a concert at Lille VEGA on the 10th of march 2005: GURU
Although I like a lot of different music, I focus on hip hop when it comes to dj'ing. My musical preferences within the genre are Golden Age and East Coast rap, especially from New York. I however play all different styles of hip hop.
Aside from dj'ing, I help run forementioned weekly hip hop club, Hip Hip Kontoret . I handle planning of events, booking, day-to-day working as well as promotion. If you're a dj and you'd like to play at the club, send me a message via Myspace. By the way, we're always looking for new dj's, photographers, graphic designers, promoters and other creative people. If you are interested don't hesitate to contact me.
In my spare time, I am the editor of danish hip hop website Flavourz.dk , which I helped found back in 2002.
During the day, I work in PR and Communication for music venue and night club VEGA.

Musik der er værd at tjekke

Jeg har netop added to dudes fra Leeds, der laver hiphop. Jeg synes sgu, de er  ret fede, og jeg vil da anbefale, at man tjekker de to tracks, der ligger på deres myspace. Co-Exist, som de hedder...
