BiographyStarting mixing in 1984 whilst enjoying the electro scene, trying to breakdance and looking the tool!
Decided to leave the dancing to the experts and supply the Ghetoblaster and my mixed tracks.

My Mixes were played on the pirate radio stations WBLS 102.4 - by DJ Waxmaster, UnityFM and one in Leeds which I cannot remember between 88 - 90, Also on the coach trips down to the DMC finals @ the Albert Hall organised by Stu Allan 'Bus Diss' Key 103 playing my Best ov Hip Hop mixes.

After 4 years of mixing I got signed to the Manchester record Label Bop Cassettes. Bop mainly released Indie music, the likes of Toss the Feathers, Half man half biscuit, Man from Delmonte, early 808 state stuff.

Had several embrassing interviews with DJ's trying to be cool which I regret doing nowadays. Had a small feature in Hip Hop Connection in 1989, NME and also Manchester Evening News. I still have 2 or 3 copies of my Bop released mixes, I have uploaded the pics on here so you can all piss yourselves.

I quit mixing in 1991 after my 4 track studio began to fall apart and having no money to buy a replacement. After a very long break and a chance email from a past DJ who also played on WBLS now known as Mr Scruff, it made me realise how foolish I was to quit at such an early age. I thought I was too old to return until Scruff informed me Greg Wilson has also returned at the age of 45!.

So having seen how far Scruff has come with his excellent tunes & mixes it has made me jump back into the music scene.

I returned to music in 2005 and I must admit I was very very rusty. After learning how to use Albeton I am now back mixing, re-mixing and also working on my own material when married life with 2 young kids lets me.

I have also got some decks and dusted off my old records and even won some classics of ebay that bring back good memories.

My musical taste has changed as I have become older. I still can listen to my Streetsounds Electro collection, they feel fresh, Hip Hop from 86 - early 90's. I feel money has ruined Hip Hop. However, I do like the new stuff released in the old skool style. I also enjoy listening to Jazz, funk, soul, rnb, funky house, greek???, 80's electronic stuff and breaks.
