During the last decade, hardcore DJ/producer Mr Ripley became well known on the UK scene for putting the fun back into modern UK hardcore with the classic happy sounds of the late 90s Bonkers era - he also remixed some of Cheeky's big releases from the mid 2010s, such as Starman's 'Waiting' and Harry Hard's 'Into The Night'. Now it's his turn to get the Cheeky remix treatment! Mr Ripley teamed up with legendary hardcore vocalist Lisa Abbott back in 2014 to cover this pop classic for his 'Bring The :) Back' album, and now our current leading artist Catchy has brought it bang up to date with two huge remixes - one in his trademark tough and trancey bounce style, and also a fantastic late 90s style 'Balearic' trance mix that's had huge support from Amber D, Dave Curtis, General Bounce and more!

I've been DJing/Producing since 1998 although I'd been experimenting with music since 1996.

My first "proper" DJ booking was at a night call A.N.D. in 1999 put on by Nebula 2. I'll never forget the excitment of playing to a proper crowd for the first time (big up Joe Nebula).

In 2000, I had my first tracks released (Classic Cutz & Chariots Of Hardcore) on a Hardcore compilation album "Dance Speed Maina 5". The record company (EMI) really liked my style and as my tracks were usually faster than normal Hardcore, put them at the at the end of the album to finish things off. They accepted more tracks off me for the next five compilations (6-10). I also produced a a Dance track for EMI that was released around 2003.

In 2001, amongst my other bookings, I became the resident of Vibealite untill roughly 2005/2006. I played at some wicked events/venues (Fantasy Island) along side the Hardcore scenes finest DJs and my good friend, ex Vibealite resident DJ Rush. I loved every minute of it :-D. This lead to bookings at events like Dizstruxshon, Revolution, Insomniacz and many more. Big up the old Vibealite crew!

2004 saw the release of my biggest track, "No More Jokin'" released on Quosh Records. The track was featured on Bonkers XI (Hixxys Mix), Vibealte History Of Hardcore and various other Hardcore compilation ablums. Unfortunately, the vinyl was labled the wrong way round :-( 
The version that says "Sy & Unknown Remix" is actually my original... 

Big up Chris and Sy ;-)

I've had various other vinyl & digital releases over the years.


No More Joking 2015 was released in February 2015 on Klubbed Up and is available from Beatport. Remixes include "Kambel Vs TJ Blitz 2015 Remix" and "Chris Unknown Remix".


***As of November 2022, I have started making music again after a few years off. Loads of new music on the way!***
