I never appreciated music until I was introduced to Dance music aged 16. Early influential tracks include New Order - Confusion, Timo Maas - Ubik, Fridge - Angel, & Kamaya Painters - Far From Over.

Originally I followed Trance, but as an avid clubber became bored by the lengthy breakdowns, vocals, & 'cheese'. I always searched for a more 'underground' sound.

Techno provides for me a more consistent flow, which is deeper, has more energy, & provides the serious element I was looking for that resonates with the mind.
 
Mauro Picotto has been influential throughout this time, where his sound has been more or less consistent with my taste. 

I am always looking for tracks with more energy, extreme sounds, & which will keep the clubber on the dancefloor causing maximum damage.

Trance & Techno DJ.  Been DJing since 1997 - happy hardcore was my first love - then trance came along 😍

I enjoy doing classic trance and hard house mixes. Recently got back into mixing vinyl with a lovely set of technics. 

Based in Newcastle upon Tyne. 

Have performed with some high profile DJs - Laidback Luke, Judge Jules, Andy Whitby.
