Thanks for the love x


ive always been into electronic music from as early as i can remember, 
my parents always played music around our home so listening to the early synth music from artists like depeche mode, kraftwerk, vangelis and jean michel jarre soon i began to have a fascination with synthesisers,  thats where my addiction to techno started, while most of my friends were spinning on their heads listening to classic electro and break dance music from the mid to late eighties, the track that turned it all around for me once i heard it was...phutures acid tracks...i was instantly addicted to the sound of the roland TB303 and acid house...that was me gone....lost in space to that little silver box!!! this lead me into the harder edge of dance music...techno...a dusty copy of ..detroit, the new sound of techno was the album that turned me on to the sound of technology communicating with man..first job was in  a record shop  (thanks vin and jay!) there i could get access to the latest new music and i met some fantastic people, also i got the chance to play vinyl on decks all day and get paid for it! perfect!  i started getting the confidence and the urge to dj myself, i also started to out together a basic studio and started producing techno and acid music, my first real gig was at the eclipse, an illegal sweat box of a club where i played a mix of belgian techno and  acid...again met some fantastic people there, from there i went on to dj all over the uk and into europe, from venues like illegal warehouses (as part of the tribe of munt crew) in many random buildings throughout london  , the arena, middlesbrough,  years festival in genoa italy 2001 (to 30000 people!) No mans land festival, Underground sound, Manik, Stinky Pink, 
i prefer intimate gigs as like to see peoples faces whilst i take them on their trip.
On the production side my studio has grew steadily and evolved into what i need to produce my music,  i produce acid, techno, tech house and experimenting with other electronica such as dubstep,dub electro and IDM, witchouse and gravewave basically anything synth related :)  im also  helping to run vector rhythm uk, a vehicle for techno and its hybrid off shoots,  encompassing a soon to come regular radio slot on techno FM and a digital label...i  also play live sets mainly acid and techno and im experimenting with witch house and gravewave  ill post some tracks here soon...some old and some new....hope u enjoy....KEEP IT ACID!

update... im getting the band back together ;) look out for more madness and mayhem soon...
