GrooveAbuse is an independent producer and musician. 

Main influences - J Dilla / Flying lotus / Madlib / Burial.

At 15 years old his DJ journey had began although his love for dance music was born years before, at the age of 11 he found Hardcore & never looked back. His passion for dance music grew & before  long he saved up himself for a set of Numark decks & a cheap mixer, going on to teach himself how to play & dedicated his time & money to his art, it was clear by age 18 it was a matter of time before a night club came calling.

Trance music was the biggest influence & is still such an important part of his sound - the foundations were laid!! 

After playing a few gigs at a local club in a town outside Aberdeen, The Craigmile hotel was the first venue he played at. At age 21, DJ EGG had now found Hard house & quickly became part of the scene. Meeting influential people who would go on to give him a residency, 

He became a regular at Taste night club then went on to run nights every weekend. Taste was a real learning curve & a baptism of fire. 

Setting out to bring cutting edge music & DJs to Aberdeen has been his mission & still is - he introduced Technikal, Barry Diston, Paul Glazby, Ilogik - & many others. With a mind set that is all about the music, he continues to seek out the sound that will change & evolve Aberdeen's clubbing mantra - not always easy but it is a worthy cause.
 
vinyl collector amassing an arsenal of tunes - old skool to nu skool in each style from trance, techno, hard house, freeform, hard core & loads of sub-genres to bridge those gaps. !!!!!! 

Sticking to a mantra - proudly recording over 60 different mixes with different tracks making sure each is unique to itself  TUNES ARE A DJ'S LIFE BLOOD!!!!

With many tough, heartbreaking & difficult times along side amazing dream come true happy moments, his DJ path has been testing & really defined him as a person in so many ways, a fresh outlook was required to inject new life into those creative attributes, after a year or so away from it, he is ready rock!!!

The dawn of a new era with more cool grooves, nicely formed beats, melodic breakdowns, chunky vibes, cutting edge bass lines, uplifting energy, slamming power mixes, cuts, fx, spin backs & digging into more styles, tring new things but with a different outlook & healthier state of mind, his musical journey is now going down a different path.
