As far back as i can remember about 23 years ago when i was 13/14 i started listening to the oldskool/Happyhardcore tunage , as a few years went by , i started havin the love for the HappyHardcore vibe and since then i wanted to get myself my 1st set of decks , but... never kind of happened . From all the tunes that was made and played , some of them top DJ'S inspired me such as DJ SY , DOUGAL , RAMOS , SLIPMAT , RATTPACK , FORCE AND STYLES , VIBES AND LIVELEE and so on and so on , to many super stars to mention . as the years went by , i got older obviously but kinda leavin the scene coz of work , kids etc . Eventually i started gettin back into the scene as i couldnt leave the sounds of the hardcore , It felt like it was apart of my life , but now it is , PROPER !!!! over the years again , i was gettin older and started to think more about getting my 1st set of decks . So as from April 2009 , i got my 1st set of Gemini DD's and borrowed a few vinyl from a mate of mine (Tony Merlin) and started havin a mess about , Didnt think anymore of it , just wanted the fun and the buzz of wanting to be a dj wanna be lol . after 6months of my 1st ever purchase of my decks , i recorded my 1st mix in october 09 . and that gave me over 80 downloads in 2 weeks lol . i didnt think it was bad myself for a virgin in the mixin scene . In febuary 2010 , i dropped on my 1st radio show and got a slot onhttp://www.the-underground.co.uk/ , then i got a slot on Narcoticradio , then Diehard radio , A sunday player on kraftyradio , slot onwww.Dancetransmission.com , http://www.x-treme-energy.co.uk/ .loads to mention but no room ... Over the months of 2010 , i kinda got better in mixin but with loadsa clangs here n there etc lol , i was actually asked by x-treme-energy-events if i could play a set for them at the plug in brum on 25th Sept 2010 , of course i took the chance even though i never thought id be out there mixin the tunage , another bookin from x-treme was in line aswell , then another , all within a few months , and appreciation is goin out to those who has supported me over the years . loads of bookings in since 2010 , with radios and events . respect to you all and many thanks for giving me that chance .I only started mixin for the laugh but its took me further than what i expected , in such a short time .. hope things work out for me lol ;) .. RESPECT TO YOU ALL XX P.L.U.R XX

Music has been at the centre of my life for as long as I can remember and im confident to say its shaped who I am today. From a very young age I was very much into Syththesized music , especially Jean Michelle Jarre (one of my all time heroes). Along side this I loved early electro house and Detroit techno so naturally , was blown away with the late 80’s acid house explosion and even more so by the early 90’s Rave explosion, and this is where my passion really set in. I first went on a pair of decks at the tender age of 9 years old (1991), and around this time got 1xdeck for Christmas, now….clearly you don’t have to be a dj to understand that this is useless for mixing, but, for beatmatching, this was the best thing you could imagine! Id beatmatch vinyls to tapes,or anything that was playing in the house,and by the time I got my 2nd deck and mixer at 12years old, the learning curve of beatmatching was already mastered! Now, musically , im predominantly Hardcore, always have been, from early breakbeat hardcore right through to todays sounds. Ive loved the evolution of the sound and have the same passion for the sound as I did 20 years ago. Trance was a major influence for me in the 90’s too , especially Paul Oakenfold/Sasha/Digweed to name a few….their ability to seamlessly blend tracks together over the course of an hour or so and leave me feeling like id been on a musical journey really inspired me and applied this same technique to everything I mixed. Today, I concentrate mainly on Uk Hardcore and Hard dance, which while im “here” must mention how impressed and inspiring I find hard dance at the mo , from the techy minimal sounds right through to the tough hardstyle sounds of Europe, I feel this scene has got a lot to offer and has something for everyone. Im loving the Hard dance scene as a whole at the moment, whether it be Breakbeats/Kickdrums/trancey/ravey/techy/fast/slow…..the scene in my eyes is as diverse as its ever been, whatever others may think! Music is a way of life!

TONY-D: for anyone who comes across this page that hasnt heard any DJ ALECMC mixes then check them out. First class mixes that does the buisness ABOUT ME Music has been at the centre of my life for as long as I can remember. From a very young age i got into the rave scene, round about 95/96 when the happier side of the hardcore kicked off. I got into Happy Hardcore by listening to Stu Allan on Key 103 then bought my first tape pack in 96 (Club Kinetic - Boombastic Part 1) and was blown away by hearing hardcore in a live event and i've been hooked ever since. DJ Vibes was always my favorite dj growing up, some of the sets and tracks he did over the years are just simply amazing. I wouldn't say i was a raver myself, i've been to a few but mainly just bought the tape packs etc as none of my freinds were into it so i had no one to go with most of the time. The hardcore scene has changed alot since 2000 (UK Hardcore) but i still love it and always will. In 2007 i thought i would have a go at djing myself and bought some beginner CDJs to start with. I picked it up pretty quickly and was beatmatching to a good standard in about a week. The main style i played and still do was UK Hardcore but i do the odd DNB, Breaks, House sets from time to time. After a few months of practicing i started to upload my UK Hardcore sets to a up and coming djs site called Choons.net. Most of the feedback i was getting was really positive and made me more confident in what i can do. About 6 months later i came across a internet radio site named Renegade Radio (www.renegaderadio.co.uk). I sent the owner of the site a demo and got a 2 hour slot on there every Saturday. I generated quite a following on there and a year or so later i came across another internet radio site named Narcotic Radio (www.narcoticradio.co.uk) were i had a hour slot in the week and generated a bigger following. I haven't sent any demos out to clubs over the years, playing in a club hasn't really intrested me and i just do it as a hobbie and for the love of the music. Check out my website for more mixes from me including some of my radio sets, hope you enjoy... CONTACT Email: AlecMc1@msn.com Facebook: facebook.com/AlecMcpherson 2 X Citronic CDS6 & DM950 Mixer
