Tukka D is originally from South London now lives in  Sydney.

From a young age he has always been into his music, singing at various events, helping to build his confidence performing.

He gradually found himself locked into Pirate radio stations; Ruud Awakening, Flight FM, Shadow FM and of course the great corner stone that is Kool London. 

Instead of sunday sessions down the pub, he would stay in holding onto the wire fm aerial to earth the frequency, burying himself under a swamp of TDK cassettes. 

With a number of his friends becoming DJs, he naturally felt the need to take part.  His passion for the jungle music and scene was strong. 

Being extremely nontechnical he naturally gravitated towards the MIC.  Mainly hosting at parties and local club events.

Throughout the mid-late 90s he regularly attended One Nation, Jungle fever, True Playez@fabric, Atomics,  The End/ Den, Telepathy, Rewind to name a few. 

He was completely taken by the music and the ability that the it had in bringing so many different types of people together. One vibe.

Specifically he was drawn to the MCs and their role adding another dynamic to the atmosphere and helping to add value to the DJs set delivery.

Key inspirations for him at this time; Fearless, Dynamite, Stevie Hyper D, Eksman and of course Mc Fats. Nowadays additions such as Impact MC, Stapleton, SPMC.

Over the years, highlights for Tukka D include supporting acts like Orifice Vulgatron (Foreign Beggars), Micky Finn, Aphrodite, Roni Size, Tango, TC sharing the MIC with MC Mana (Salonella Dub) at a private warehouse party, Dnb stage @full moon party in Thailand, various Dnb and Garage harbour boat parties, performing with a Samba band in Brazil and  putting on the warm up festival event at Exit festival in Serbia with his good friend Shyam (Triple S). Good times brother!

In the last couple of years he has been given re-introduction to the local Sydney scene (thank you Kylie Stead and Koolade). 

Making appearances on Bondi Beach Radio and hosting nights for Afterlife, Elements of Tech and Bass, Bass Drop, Breakneck Entertainment, Renegade, IloveUKG and the Riot Club. 

The scene here is about community and something very unique. It needs be valued and respected as such.  Tukka D aims to continue to build on his style, adapt and work on being more versatile for the Australian crew.

There is also talk of production colabs in the pipeline and would welcome any opportunities or ideas you might have in mind.

Bring on 2016!

__________

Quakes is a DJ deeply rooted in the weighty pulse of UK bass music, drawing inspiration from dubstep, grime, and the sub-heavy sounds of sound system culture. Since first discovering the genres as a 10y/o drummer in 2007, he’s been captivated by its raw energy and meditative low end — a passion that has only deepened over nearly two decades.

With nine years of formal classical percussion training behind him, Quakes brings a refined rhythmic focus to every set — blending syncopated basslines with atmospheric textures and percussive depth. His selections are immersive, grounded in deep dub sensibilities, yet built to move crowds in both bush and club environments.

A dedicated vinyl collector, Quakes also performs all-vinyl sets that draw from rare dubplates, white label grime instrumentals, UKG and classic 140 gems — paying homage to the roots of the culture while showcasing his crate-digging instincts.

Since 2017, Quakes has been a consistent presence in Sydney’s underground scene, performing at (and organising) warehouse raves, outdoor gatherings, and bush doofs. He is a key member of Gennyada crew. Recent highlights include three sets at Twisted Frequency Festival NZ 2025 (2 representing DUNJ crew) and sets at Art Valley Winter 2025 and Dragon Dreaming Festival 2025. He has also shared stages with international heavyweights such as Ago, Biome, Hijinx, Nina, Sherelle, Tubby Isiah, Degs, and Gardna.

Whether under the trees or inside warehouse walls, Quakes delivers sound system-ready sets that balance sonic weight with spatial awareness — crafted to move both body and mind. A true student of bassweight, his performances are composed for deep listening and ground-shaking release.
