Bio
Chris bought his first decks when he left school at 16 years old, in 1997.
Back then he was into his rave music and bought two Soundlab belt drive decks, a mixer and seventy happy hardcore records second hand, for under £200, from a mate at college.
This was just the beginning…he then went on to mix DnB, Trance, HardHouse and Techno.
His musical tastes changed and over the years his Techno slowed down and progressed into a unique dirty Electro House sound.
Playing any chance he had, in his bedroom, at house parties and at open deck nights he built up the confidence and the music portfolio to play out in public.
In 2005 he came second in a Smirnoff DJ competition and following this achievement he became a resident for a Cheltenham Electro House night called ‘Break Out’.
Chris’ DJ portfolio has seen him play impressive gigs across Gloucestershire alongside top nights in London and Ibiza.
This year his fans have seen him at his first festival, ‘Bloom’ and playing alongside major influences in the dance arena such as Brandon Block, Bodyrox and the Trophy Twins.
Chris is looking to the future and as ever his latest mix CD doesn’t disappoint. Incorporating an array of different sounds his music is ever evolving and every track will get the dance floor jumping.
Not content with performing mind-blowing mixes Chris is now looking at producing tracks to ensure that his crowd-pleasing style can continue to develop.
