Band/artist 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..Have you performed in front of an audience?I DJ every now and then, not played any of my stuff live though.
Your musical 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, etcWhat equipment do you use?
Just my PC and a shed load of samples!Contact

Nice tunes! Thanx for sharin!
Easy, checked under the influence.. good to see you back in the game! You can tell youve been out of it for a while in this track. A little rusty round the edges in comparison with the likes of playing with.. I like the dark vibe youve got going on with the whole thing though. Oldskool lives!
Big Up.
Nice to see dnb heads still going strong.
Listening to Calm Before The Storm.
I like the mellow synth line at the beginning, but it needs to be fuller/fatter I think. Going into break. Some cool filters and fx here, but it's quite loop based. Like the acid synth that comes in that's cool. And the panned synth fill.
Playing With...?
Again in with the whispy synths. This is a much better track. The bouncy synth line is really cool and in your face, and the break is nice. I think the synth line is too high in the mix tho, it's talking all the highs from the break. It's really good, it's got quite an old skool flavour, especially the vox sample (that's done the rounds). Old skool piano comes in, Oi oi! I like the general flavour of it, reminds me of the 'good old days', early nineties bizniz.
