I've been playing the music I love for over 20 years across New Zealand, Australia and the UK. Starting off in the vibrant NZ outdoor party scene I played many of the big festivals of the day including the Gathering, Alpine Unity & Destination. More recently I've been a founder of the Tempo Schmempo collective, label and radio crew in London putting on parties and keeping people sane with weekly radio shows. I'm a disciple of the deep mix playing everything around and in between slow disco, deep/tech/italo house, disco, cosmic, afro-tech, techno, breaks and prog. Now back to Aotearoa running regular Tempo Schmempo parties and gigging around the country.

The Loneliest Hunk delivers a unique fusion of house, disco, Italo-electro, and indie dance, sprinkled with acid nuances and unexpected edits – always with enough grit to keep the floor moving. 

Drawing from two decades honing his craft in London and Ibiza, playing iconic venues like Space and Café Del Mar in Ibiza, and Ministry of Sound and Pacha in London, his sets are more than just music—they’re celebrations of connection and collective joy.

Originating within the edits scene, The Loneliest Hunk is now finding success with his original productions. Over the past few years, his edits have traveled worldwide, earning support from legendary DJs such as Colleen ‘Cosmo’ Murphy, Peter Kruder, Craig Charles on his BB6 Funk and Soul radio show, Birdee, Rimarkable, Yolando Be Cool, Fingerman, and Ladies on Mars, cementing his global presence and influence.

That momentum carried into his first official release, ‘Claviee’, which earned him a spot in Magnetic Magazine’s monthly Top 15 Disco & Funk Tracks, with the magazine praising it as “a groovy little disco number that will have you throwing your hands in the air and shaking what your mama gave ya.”
