With well over 30 years of mixing experience; this genre of mix means the most to me as it includes many tracks from my first few crates of vinyl. During the latter half of 1993 in the UK there was a distinctive split in rave scene where many of the top jocks began playing more darker, sinister tracks after a good few years of more uplifting vibes. Included are typically what you could have expected to hear from the likes of Top Buzz, Grooverider and Ratty. Have included some more recent productions.

All mixes released on YouTube one week prior to Soundcloud. 

If you're feelin these mixes with full track lists primarily focused on the 90's U.K dance music scene and anything disco, funk & soul feel free to follow, like, share!

The idea behind my page is to log and showcase the music that has influenced me over the years so that my daughter, Ebony, can listen to ‘olden day’ music and hopefully appreciate how good we had it. 

Having learnt my craft in the late 80’s at the age of 12 and teaching myself how to beat match on 1200’s within a week, I felt I had a knack for this DJ’ing thing way before it became fashionable. I would class myself as quite a versatile DJ able to lend my hand to most genres. Hopefully all those years of bedroom mixing and house parties have paid off…but that’s up to you to decide. 

I attempt to capture a constant energy in my mixes regardless of genre and am always a firm believer that the mix is as important as the track itself. I endeavour to create seamless transitions whilst maintaining the energy. During longer mixes a welcome switch in style is sometimes required. In fact different genres warrant different styles of mixing, in my opinion. And monotonous sets do nothing for me. Up and down, peaks and troughs, it’s all about building the listener up and letting them down gently.

Never one to choose tracks based on their popularity or current chart position, I hand pick the tunes I mix because I think they’ll stand the test of time. The idea being that during any of my sets I can pick a point and know I’ll dig that track or mix. Although digitally digging isn’t as rewarding as finding physical vinyl records for me, it is a whole lot easier. That said there are a lot of below par tunes out there to sift through before finding worthy tracks. Then the set process begins…I just approach it as a musical jigsaw.

Anyway, enough about me. Whether you’re getting ready to go out for the night, cleaning the kitchen or in the car, turn it up, get in the groove and I hope you enjoy the vibes  😎
