About me

I love music. It’s my passion. It’s my happy place. It’s what I think about when I daydream.

It feels like being a DJ was always my destiny from when I was boy. From chopping up cassette recordings from the chart rundown with my dad on a Sunday to the life’s work that is my music collection, I always felt this was where I’d end up somehow. And here I am, coming into my 25th year as a DJ.

My fascination with the art began aged around 7 or 8 when I would avidly watch every move of the mobile DJs at our local social club. This addiction to the DJ’s craft developed over the years through being mesmerised by the scratch artistry of DJ Hype to admiring the production brilliance of people like Masters at Work. A common thread in all my heroes has been a combination of their professionalism, attention to detail and most importantly that ability to take people on a journey through their music. It’s these traits that I’ve always tried to incorporate in what I do whether it’s when I go out to play or on my radio show.

I’ve spanned a few genres over the years. I learned to mix in the earlier days of hardcore, modelling myself on people like Slipmatt and Carl Cox, before progressing into house music and the smoother more refined sounds of the likes of David Morales, Erick Morillo and Louie Vega. I’m not a music snob however and I do enjoy also a good blast of some “guilty pleasures” at a party every now and again. This goes right back to my original fascination with the fundamental art of the DJ as an entertainer and all round people-pleaser.
