VINYLTRIXTA
Myself & Jimmy J co-founded the Remix Records record shop in Camden opening on the 4th of January 1994. In 1993 the music had splintered into Jungle & Happy Hardcore. Most of the record shops in London were stocking a lot more Jungle than HH, Each shop would only carry a few HH tunes each so you’d have to visit all the shops to buy all the release's of that week which was fun but very time consuming. It was therefore apparent that London was crying out for a dedicated Happy Hardcore shop & thus Remix Records was born. It was pretty much an instant success.. Later that year Jimmy started the Remix Record record Label with Cru-L-T and together with its big brother Kniteforce Records they defined the sound of a generation. At this time I was playing @ free parties & anywhere that would have me! Diehard Leicester were the first club to give me a break closely followed by my spiritual home Labrynth ... By 1997 I was playing regularly for events such as Slammin Vinyl, Unired Dance, Hardcore Heaven, Destiny, GBH, Dizstruxshon, Illusion, Dreamscape, Helter Skelter & many more.. It was long before I started to get bookings from around the world coming in including Germany, Canada, Poland, Singapore & many hazie visits to Ibiza... All of the above was all about Hardcore & Happy hardcore as the music evolved.. From 1999 I also started to play & produce Hard House as The Trixta with a weekly residency for Substance which was a room for Freedom @ Bagleys which ran for 2 years. In 2003 I decided to stop playing hardcore as the music which I truly loved had evolved into music so far from what it was when I began I felt it was time to move aside and give the opportunity to other that had a passion for it... During lockdown down I've been listening to alot of the old tunes that I love and decided to get myself back out there playing all things Breakbeat Hardcore.. Ive been back in studio & had a record signed by Return of the Vibe Records & been playing up and down the UK with a new residency for Strawberry Sundae .. sesyou on dance floor soon! Peace.
