A music enthusiast that has devoted his life and education towards the music industry, he came up through the Crazy Beat Record stables where he worked and learnt the ropes for 4 years and completed a BTEC National Diploma and a Higher National Certificate in Music Technology at college in the meantime.



Through the contacts he made during this time and his hard work and self promotion he - since the age of sixteen- has appeared as a DJ in many London and surrounding area nightclubs and assisted in the Caister and Southport weekenders, Feelsurreal, Wildchild and Art of Loving organisations. Has appeared as a monthly resident for GelloFishPink and weekly for Sound Republic, Buzz Bar (Leciester Square) and Break For The Boarder in the West End and currently is a weekly resident at Elbert Wurlings in Hertford and twice monthly resident at Elbow Room - Islington.



Djing in clubs and involved in the industry for 10 years, his musical tastes have broadened encompassing drum and bass/Jungle (which he started out with), funk and break beats, disco and house influenced disco, soul and rare groove, R&B, UK& US Hip Hop, ragga and reggae and anything with funk and soul!



He continues to make contacts through his residencies and travels round the country and sometimes travel abroad to make contacts and visit clubs.



Having concentrated on his djing after leaving college the acquisition of an MPC has led to him dabbling in beats. With help of his peers (big up Nappa, Mr Thing, Caramac, Last Skeptik) in the industry and focus and determination he is moving forward with this all the time! With a wealth of knowledge and experience behind his 26 years of age he looks forward to many years of fun in the music business!
