Biography


His name which is synonymous with the UK Hardcore Techno movement since its inception. He’s career started out in the late 80s playing at a small London club run by Danny Rampling. He had a resident radio show playing Jungle on the infamous pirate radio stations Lightning & Rude, he recalls probably his first Techno gig at the ‘UFO Club’ in Berlin at this time.
His first vinyl releases were in 1992 on legendary Oldskool Hardcore label ‘Basement Records’ as Techno Bros (with Jack Smooth aka Ron Wells). Around this time when Breakbeats and Jungle was making an Impact in London clubs, as well as playing this style (his way), found himself drawn to the European Techno sound from Belgium, Italy and Holland.
He also worked in London- based shop ‘Dancefloor Records’ and had access to a wealth of exciting fresh music. He soon found himself making trips to mainland Europe to buy records for the shop direct (and himself) from the big distribution companies and record labels of the time like R&S, Big Time, Music Man, Hithouse and MidTown. On these trips he made friends and contacts with many of the biggest players in the industry.
While he had a unique and creative tune selection and mixing style, with an arsenal of exiting new harder music at his fingertips. The style evolved as did the scene and he quickly found himself not through intention one of the hardest Djs on the circuit. As Hardcore and Techno grew in popularity his sets stood out from his peers earning him a massive following in the UK with regular appearances at every major event.
But that’s all in the past and he’s coming back home to his roots where it all started in the jungle music scene with a vengeance all those years ago..
