Bio
Totally joined the digital revolution now, with a Dell Dimension 5150 and Dell Latitude D620, loaded with Virtual DJ and now combined with a Hercules RMX. Sony headphones to boot. Full mobile setup, including amps, speakers, bass bins, lights and smoke.
I've always been interested in music, however the main man who turned me on to dance music was Carl Cox! I used to listen to his mix tapes and he blew my mind! I first saw and heard him at Fatsams nightclub Dundee. He was the man, and i've seen him a few times since. He was the main inspiration, along with a Rikki B tape from the Sunset club, coupled with returning home after my student days and experiencing part of the English festival circuit, especially Underworld, Glastonbury '89 and Hawkwind, Treworgy Tree Festival '89, that i purchased my first set of decks and mixer. I was fortunate to return, at the time, dance music was exploding locally. Who could forget those classic local events, Peace In The Valley, Secret and Foxy Rave? They were brilliant nights!
I used to make mix tapes with the aid of a double tape player and the radio and used to give them out to friends, and after getting my decks, i used to play anywhere i could, in my bedroom, peoples houses, Aberfeldy raft race(that was mental), the back of pubs and snippets in the locall clubs, especially the Og chill out room, when the Hype Collective where there! Who could forget the night Dj Nipper was in town, pure madness!
Ran my own nights Aphrodisia and Romp mainly in Angus, Dundee and Stonehaven inviting some of Britians finest Djs for a few years and was resident in the local Nightclubs in Kirriemuir and Forfar, up until about 3 years ago, which i thoroughly enjoyed, until family commitments became more important. Ran my own mobile for a few years, which was much fun.
Love mixing and i have my own studio in my house to keep me satisfied when i have the time.
Early Adam & the Ants, Sex Pistols, Duran Duran, Bauhaus, Human League, T-Rex, The Animals, The Orb, Underworld(saw them live Glastonbury 1989), Led Zeppelin, Pink floyd, Prodigy, Prefab Sprout, Depeche Mode, Italian House, Vitalic, Carl Cox, Rikki B,& loads loads loads more !
