About Me

I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4Hey.. Love all kinds of music from the sublime chilled beats through world music to jazz into broken beats and on to the funkiest drum and bass dubplates.. Have played in many a dark and shady dive around the north west usually with partner in crime Tony S ( see his myspace below )..Played all around the North West in my time. Chibuku, The Magnet, Sankeys to name but a few. Highlights have included playing at Fabric in London and NYE at Chibuku but I have also loved the dingy bar gigs where you have to gaffer tape the decks back together before you start playing!These days I am more introspective about it all and making tentative steps into musical production. I will upload my various offerings to the player on here as and when I feel the tunes are ready to be heard. Any feedback, good or bad will be greatly appreciated.Peace and love.. Ali Mac
