I got my first record player when I was 10 years old, and a copy of the 2001: A Space Odyssey soundtrack. My life since then has been a journey through music, from early Kraftwerk to the great undergrounds sounds of today.
I started DJ'ing in the late 70's on a pair of mismatched turntables, mixing depeche mode, early electro, italo disco and more. As I lived in small town with only two dance clubs, my audience was people who bought my mixtapes (with custom collage covers).
After a bit of a pause in the late 80's to attend college, I got back into the scene in the 90's with Orbital, Spicelab and other artists of the day, then switched over to psybient and psytrance in the early 2000s'. Played out a little in Toronto at the Blue Moon before moving the the UK in 2010 where I discovered underground, deep dark progressive and tech/minimal and deep house sounds. Have quite a few mixes up on Mixcloud, have submitted a few remixes to Beatport, and played out once in London. Working on getting and underground night going in Worcester where I live today.
