Why this name?
Easy my name is Stuart Johnstone - hardly original I know...
Do you play live?
I DJ every now and then, not played any of my stuff live though.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
At the drop of a hat....
Band History:
I've been Djing for the last 10 years, staring off with djing in bars around Derby with the guys that now run Blend. Fell out of love with the house scene for a little while and got back into my first musical love - Old skool (92 the greatest year for music) Two highlights of my Djing career to date are playing with The Ratpack, DJ Sy and Nebula II at the Ballroom in Nottingham (formerly the Marcus Garvey Centre) and following DJ Hype at Technique (I have never been so nervous, Hype absolutley smashed it that night). Currently getting into producing my own tunes, Hopefully I'll have something released by the end of the year, even if I have to press it myself..
Your influences?
All sorts, from Gladys Knight to DJ Zinc. Notable influences would be stuff that was played at the Hardcore Raves in the UK between 91 and 94. Shouts to Top Buzz, Sy, Hype, Ratty, Carl Cox, Slipmatt, etc, etc, etc
Equipment used:
Just my PC and a shed load of samples!
