I started djing in 1985 playing Hip-Hop / Soul and mixed my way in to the UK DMC mixing championships in 1988. I joined a Hip- Hop group also in 88 called "Sylk Kut" and played a mini tour with De La Soul & Sugar Bear. By the end of 88 I started buying House & Acid House. Eventually I was into Techno by 92/93 after going to a "Lost" party in South London, this was a major turning point for me musically.



I co-ran a weekly club night in Leicester Square, London in 94 called "Iconelastic" also in this year I had a weekly radioshow on London's infamous "Chillin' FM 102.9. I have also guested on various other radioshows inc netmix.com / dj-sets.com and Energia 97 in Sao Paulo.



In 1997 I hooked up with DJ Rush after he heard a mix tape of mine then Rush got myself to play Berlin's Love Parade and various other gigs in Germany that year.1997 was also the year I invested in buying my first pieces of studio equipment. By 1998 I had released my first couple of EP's on Rush's "Kne'Deep" & the other on "Off the wall" label. Following on from these releases I also released on Justin Berkovi's "Predicaments" label as a split EP with Rush and other labels such as High Octane / 4 X 4 / Tonewrecker / Audio Textures / Dark House Music / Morpheus / Thrill / Psycho Shoxx / E'pochworx. In the lasy few year I have worked with Jamie Bissmire (Space djz) & DJ Bam Bam on both there "50hz" & "Bass Heavy music" labels.



I started my JACKSTAR label in 2001 because I thought with the loss of UC and Jasper Stone records there was still a need for new edge to that "Chicago hard funk music". As a result I got in touch with DJ Bam Bam and we put together the first release. The label has gone from strength to strength with artists from DJ Rush / Sandy Warez / Switchblade / DJ MH / DJ Bam Bam / Jamie Bissmire / Paul Birken / Boris S. / DJ Nehpets / DJ Urban and of course myself.



My djing has kepted me very busy over the years and taken me all over the world from Belgium / Germany / Slovenia / USA / Brazil / Austria / Sweden / France / Israel / Holland / Japan / Poland / UK and many more. . . .
