“Where words fail, music speaks.”

Music has always been a huge part of my life. Being surrounded by commercial music from a very early age (my dad had a mobile disco business), it was only natural that as I grew, so to did my love and appreciation of all different genres of music.

By the time I was 14, id been bought my first set of decks, and this is when I first started to mix. It didn’t just become a hobby to me; it became a way of life. As the years went by, and my confidence grew, I started playing out at friends parties. Hearing all the positive feedback form friends and family, I decided that I would enter a few competitions to see what level I was at. With these competitions resulting in wins, my confidence was at an all time high, and I decided that it was time to show people how serious I was. I did a few sets in various pubs before feeling I was ready to approach Cinnabar with a mix tape I had put together. I was over the moon when this gained me my first resident spot as a working DJ, and Working amongst all of the other great DJ’s working at Cinnabar is only helping me to progress even further. As there is such a variety of music and styles of play, I don’t feel restricted. I like to think outside the box when it comes to music, and am prepared to switch it up at the drop of a hat as I have no preferred genre or rules that I stick to.

“Most people live and die with their music still unplayed. They never dare to try.”

In the past i have never been into recording my mixes as it was mostly a hobby to mix, but as now i feel my DJing is evolving as is the technology used to record is more widely available i thought it was time to share my involvement with music with you.... 

As this recording is a whole new thing to me i have uploaded some past bits that were laying around on my laptop from previous attemps and look forward to continue to add fresh mixes to my cloud on a regular from the Start of 2012....
