DJ, Promoter, and Producer.

With D Concept (under our Lost Boys alias) residents at Harder..., we've also played at Hard South, Twist, Frantic Timeless, Hard Dance Showcase. Our sets covered the spectrum of hard dance, but typically built up from funky warm up material into hard trance. 

After nurturing our skills with legends of the local scene, we set up our studio turning out our first production 'Get Lost' in the summer of 2007. After creating a number of original tracks, bootlegs & remixes in our own studio, we collaborated with Technikal on 'Mass Effect'. As the ninth release on Technikal recordings it spent time in the Trackitdown Top 10 downloads chart (making us about 50p each!)

I have also promoted & played as part of the team behind:

BN Free - Monthly night of deep & progressive house at H Bar in Hove

Mashfest/Emfest - 2 festivals on private land in a secret rural woods location. We built a large decked dance floor in a clearing, hired a 9k sound rig, set up lazers, campsite, fire pit & even blagged a free set from Tinrib who smashed it out under the stars.

My ideal 5 act lineup would be:
Pixiee
Amp Attack
Steve Maynard
OD404
Lucy Fur

Favourite Labels:
Movin' House
Untidy
Deprived of Funk
Tripoli
Kaktai/Spinball

Oxford based The Ideas comprises of Gary S Creigh on vocals and guitar, Steve Hare on bass and backing vocals and Nick Aspey on drums.
 The band wear their influences on their sleeves – especially those from the Oxford area – with the Ride and similar 'shoegaze' sounds featuring strongly, as well those other Oxford heroes, Radiohead.

The Ideas audio-landscape is rich, with tonal and vocal inspiration present from early 80s post punk artists, such as The Cure and Joy Division, brought up-to-date with pounding back-drops, akin to The National, Interpol and Arcade Fire.
 The band recently recorded with renowned UK indie producer George Shilling – Frank Turner, Blur, Teenage Fanclub – and have their debut album planned for the later-half of 2020.
