Herbs Originators - 'Flamethrower' - 1999 Demo

Derek Random is the alter-ego of me, Steve 'Griffo' Griffiths from Birmingham, UK - I'm also known as Rafa LaRocka, The Flow Mechanik and Wolf Hackmine.

I started dj'ing in the late 80's and was resident at Bonkers in Birmingham in '89 [the only weekly house/techno/hip hop in Birmingham at that time.

I dj'd for the Raymondo's parties which eventually became the global glam clubbing behemoth that is now Miss Moneypennys. 

I dj'd in Tenerife in '89 and Turkey in '90 and then went on to be resident at the short lived Dance Factory in Birmingham . 

I was resident dj for 'Splosh Soundsystem' throughout the 90's in the midlands which had regular link ups with D.I.Y. and Smokescreen. 

In the late 90's I formed 'Freak Da Funk' with 'Hippy Chris' which specialised in parties in unconventional venues such as beaches, snooker halls and sheds in fields in Cambridgeshire.

I now live in Andalucia and still work on my own music under the aliases The Flow Mechanik, Derek Random, Rafa LaRocka and others.

The personal high point of my dj'ing life is Gavin Hardkiss using my Scott Hardkiss tribute mix during his Valencia Radio 'In My Boom' show during his Scott Hardkiss tribute.
