This has all come after years of DJ'ing from an early age when Dave decided to set up a recording studio with his younger brother Steve and close friend Lewis in 1998 and started making music. Trance was big at the time in 98 and decided to give that a go. With a little bit of success over a few years under the name 'Aptness', and their biggest track called 'The Answer, which Graham Gold signed to his Good as label, which went on to become one of Judge Jules's favourite tracks of 1998 on Radio 1 and Graham Gold's 'Kicking Cut' on Kiss 100FM. 'The Answer' also appeared on various mix albums including Ministry's 'Clubbers Guide to 99, Trance Nation 2 and many more including a Playstation Fifa Football game. During this time they also did a few remixes including an early DJ Tiesto track called 'Theme from Norefjell' on Blackhole Records.

With ever changing scene of dance music over the years and the Trance scene becoming more and more commercial, in 2013 the lads decided to take their productions in a new direction and that's when the name Tenacious was born, focusing on Underground House Music and driving energetic Bass Driven Tech House.

It all started for me at around 13 years old as a secondary school boy, when I became fascinated with Electronic Music. I was a big Depeche Mode, Yazzo and Tears for Fears fan, so I liked modern bands using technology. I used to go to Trax Records in Greek Street with my best pal at the time Charlie,  and we'd spend the day in Soho Record shops, and listen to the music they played. One of the first tracks I bought was the beautiful Balaeric classic, 'Song for Denise' by Piano Fantasia in 86' when I was just 13 years old. From then I was hooked and passionately in love with this new electronic sound with a beat.

I'd scraped money working in the school holidays to buy my 1210's and a vinyl addiction continued.

I got my first DJ residency in 93' at Labrynth,which was all down to my new friend at the time Vinyl Matt (a resident DJ at the club). It was filled to capacity every Friday and Saturday at the infamous Four Aces club (orignally a Reggae venue) in Dalston Lane and ran by the enigmatic Joe Wieczorek & lovely Sue, who I idolised at the time. 

A rave club at heart, however having house music secondary rooms where I played my first sets. I used to also visit all the record stores within the M25 making sure Joe's Labrynth flyers were stocked up. and giving out the free comps he'd give me for store managers and owners, picking up obscure but brilliant music along the way.  I was in heaven during this period of my life!

After finishing at Labrynth, and missing DJ'ing to a crowd badly, I started putting on my own parties in 95'. These were small local nights, hiring restuarants and bars and filling them up with friends and their friends. some of my pas played at various London nights such as Release the Pressure and Just Can't Get Enough. I also managed to get CJ Mackintosh play for me as he was a lifetime friend of a pal of mine ar the time. 

After moving upwards with bigger venues, I took the plunge in 98' and hired a proper club with a bigger capacity, Imperial Gardens, and Kinky Malinki was born. 

I had to lie blatantly to Raymond at Imperial to even hire the club as I had no big venue history at all.  These were the days before social media existed.  It was sacks and sacks of letters getting franked at the post office and lots of weekends without much sleep giving out the 60,000 flyers we'd had printed.

Together with co-promoter Paul, we put on nights at Imperial Gardens., The Glasshouse, Aquarium, The Ministry of Sound, The Cross, Turnmills, El Divino and my favourite parties at our monthly residency at Pacha London (where we were the longest running residency). 


We were also guests around the UK at some of the most popular nghts of that era, such as Ultra Vegas, Eye Candy, Hotdog and many, many others.

I stepped away from running the parties years ago for personal reasons, but the passion for house music never, ever fades. 

I'm still as in love with the music 35 years later, as I ever have been ❤️ My music? it's underground baby!
