A remix I done for Ian Van Dahl. A big and belting uplifting club tune with big breakdown on a trance tip.

Ian Van Dahl - Where Are You Now (Sonic Jim's Vocal Mix)

A project I worked on for BBC Radio 1 One Music. A deep and funky house tune.

Funked Up

Another remix project I done for Ian Van Dahl. Back on the hard and uplifting trance tip.

Ian Van Dahl - Believe (Sonic Jim's Vocal Mix)

Massive hard house tune with phatt bass and and huge synths. Wicked :)

1 DJ

One of my favourite melodic and progressive trance compositions. A nice warm uplifting vibe. 
Part of the Off The Hook EP Released on Pink Penny Records available for download on itunes, beatport and all other major distributors.

Sunrise

Nice and hard trance from the early 2000's.

Electrify

Considering I wrote this back in 2004 it sounds fresh and current today, just a shame I never really finished it - will try and get round to giving it a spruce up sometime. Nice techy/techno electro-ey groover.

Massive

I originally wrote this back in 2003 and I gave it a bit of a beef up with this remix in 2006. I absolutely love the breakdown and buildup in this tune, check it out at full volume sat between a decent pair of speakers and you'll see what I mean... amazing panning and effects going on. Crank it up...!

Project Gamma (2006 Remix)

The title track from the EP. A big room trancer with some phat gated synths. Released on Pink Penny records available for download from iTunes, Beatport and all other major distributors.

Off The Hook

This track is one of my very earliest solo productions originally recorded back in 2001. A beautiful piece of soulful deep house, have a listen and let me know what you think.

BIO:
As a kid I used to always love the sound of a synthesiser. Due to family influence I was into electronic music from a very young age. I used to love everything from Genesis, to Jean Michelle Jarre, Kraftwerk and ELO – anything with a killer synth.
In the early 90’s I discovered dance music – house music to be precise. I spent all my waking time listening to house music. I would blag a mix on anybody's decks whenever I could until i finally bought myself 2 belt drive turntables to try and get my 4/4 beat fix - but it wasn’t long before I bought a set of Technics 1210’s and spent literally thousands of hours practising mixing and developing my own style.
As well as being an avid punter on the dance floor side of the decks at all the big nights, I got myself some gigs playing at free parties, festivals and nightclubs. Having spent nearly a decade Djing and putting on some of my own underground dance events, I naturally looked for a more creative outlet for my passion - writing and producing electronic music. 
I started experimenting in a friend’s studio back in the late 90’s and after discovering a natural talent; I studied sound engineering and music technology at Plymouth College to help develop my skills and knowledge of midi and synthesis. It was around this time that VST (virtual studio technology) began to take over the music industry and allowed a personal computer to produce the same kind of sounds that were only achievable by spending huge amounts of cash on hardware kit. 
I built my own studio computer and loaded it up with a whole array of virtual synthesisers and using the awesome power of Cubase, Reason, Logic Audio and Ableton; I am able to compose my own blend of electronica using all my musical influences.
I have worked on projects for Ian Van Dahl, the BBC and Sky television. I have worked with pinkpennyrecords.com and have releases out on iTunes, Beatport and all other major distributors.
