A mix a long time in the making for me. I first started collecting old hardcore + jungle records when I got into dance music at university around 2005. Unfortunately, these sounds were not that popular in clubs at the time, so I've never really had the chance to play them out as much as I would have liked to.

These records mean a lot to me, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did putting it together.

I’ve worked in the Club/Music Events industry since 2009 as a promoter/booker/programmer most notably at the CLF Art Cafe/Bussey Building & Corsica Studios in South London, and as a DJ with appearances at festivals including Glastonbury & Love Supreme and guest radio appearances on NTS & Balamii Radio. 

Between 2012-2016 as well as becoming a General Manager, I programmed and held DJ residencies at a number of in-house club nights at the CLF/Bussey Building alongside the owner of the venue, Mickey Jazzheadchronic Smith including Zonk Disco and the legendary South London Soul Train.

Following my time at the CLF I moved to Lisbon, regularly DJing there and then returned to programming events in South London at Buster Mantis, Deptford & The White Hart, New Cross where we installed a vintage audiophile Tannoy soundsystem between 2017-2019.

Since then, as well as performing solo I started a DJ crew called Svelte (@svelteclub) which celebrates a shared love for 80s sounds, synths, Italo, Soul, R&B, Disco, House, Hip-Hop, Boogie, Electro and beyond.
