I bought my 1st set of decks in 93..and still have em! :) DJ'd at friends partys and once at BAR PERU bolton waaay bk in 96.... Frequented many of the great clubs in the 90's starting with PLEASUREDROME in farnworth then WIGAN PIER & MAXIMES in wigan,followed LIFE to the mighty BOWLERS,aswell as KINETIC,SHELLYS, and some mint allnighters VISION 93. Put out my raving shoes to pasture in 96,when in my opinion..it all went down hill and lost the 'VIBE' :( The revival of the 'oldskool scene' has got me back into the music that i sadly lost contact with for a few yrs,aswell as breakbeat and nu-rave. Slowly getting into buying vinyl again after a 2-3yr gap of only playing mp3's and loving the challenge. My mixes aint perfect...but hope you enjoy them all the same. My set up- TECHNICS 1200'S BEHRINGER DJX700 mixer. Old and new mixes will be posted as i have loads on soundcloud,mediafire,4shared yaada yaada..all comments welcome,good n bad lol thanks :)

DeeJay Jamie Jay began as a writer of a graffiti crew called FTV. In the summer of 1988, I spent several months in Manchester, Uk, attending club events at Hacienda and Boardwalk watching the heats of DMC and and buying the new tunes at Spin in Records. It was there that I fell in love with hiphop music. Back in Warrington , I teamed up with Tasker who was already creating a name for himself in the Graffiti scene in Northwest. Until then, I had mostly been spinning hip-hop and funk. In the Summer of 1990 i discorverd a club that rocked a new vibe that was House music. House quickly rose popularity throughout the Northwest and the rest of the U.K .This is where i got my first taste of dance music, importing from the USA trolling record shops for that rare gem. As my taste was allways HipHop the piano tunes from Italy was replaced by a new cool sound that was Early Drum n Bass, Jungle. This music improved my Djing skills tenfold, cutting two records up, playing around with the rythmic dynamics. I began to get a reputation for solid mixes diverse in style that was popular in the Northwest, mainly playin private partys and ilegal events.
