A Very Different World (Funk D'Void Reshape)

I've written for a whole spectrum of music outlets - from Data Transmission to Inverted Audio, the much loved Ibiza Voice and even contributions to FACT and Fabric. Mainly, this involves listening to sounds, deciding whether I like them or not, and then making words happen about them.

Sometimes the sounds find their way onto mixes (when I have the time between dealing with children and a demanding day job) some of which you can hear on here.

My sounds are myriad. One mix does not sound like the next.

Been following dance music since the early days, started off listening to house, migrated to techno after listening to a life changing essential mix from Darren emerson and being educated by a friend back home about the joys and intricacies of techno who also introduced me to the Arches in Glasgow when it was in full swing with the Slam boys doing their weekly sessions.

Always looking for music that challenges and pushes the boundaries and I still like to keep an open mind and ears to all kinds of music from general pop, rock and Jazz. My passion still remains for techno which I fell is often misunderstood to be banging 4/4 euro trance. Music has to be about emotion and feeling, with my insprations and loves coming in particular the Detroit sound from the likes of Robert Hood, Carl Craig. However, not forgetting my Glasgow roots, they have been central to my inspiration. Maybe it's the dull grey winter nights that helps bring out the creativity in us!

Hoping that I can share my passion and enthusiasm and give something for others to enjoy while getting plenty of personal pleasure at the same time.
