ROUGHT UP ON STRONG DIET OF JAZZ, AND 70’S & 80’S SOUL & FUNK, INFLUENCED BY MY DAD AND OLDER BROTHER.

WITHIN THE NEXT FIVE YEARS I’D BUILT UP MY CAREER PLAYING AT VARIOUS VENUES WITH RESIDENCIES ON THE SOUTH COAST (FUNKSHACK) AND IN LONDON (‘REPUBLIC OFLOVE’).

IN 1991 ‘UNIQUE RHYTHM’ WAS SET UP PROMOTING VARIOUS PARTIES IN AND AROUND LONDON BLENDING ALL FORMS OF SOULFUL DANCE MUSIC.

TOP DJ SETS

1. Soul Heaven New years eve party 97 at Berwick Manor - A 6 hour set - just the way I like it, only stopping to pop some bubbly at midnight and enough time to play all the music I love!

2. Royal Ascot 1999 - the first of the party's I did at Royal Ascot can never be beaten, 2000 people dancing outdoor in the sun & mounted policeman requesting Roy Ayers, need I say more!

3. Caister Clubroom - too many sets to mention but ones that stick out are firstly - OCT 2001 late night in the club room after playing an hour of soulful house, dropping my remix of 'Always there' and then finishing off with 'Kings of tomorrow's - 'Finally', and everybody singing the opening verse before going crazy. and secondly any of the sets I've done preceding or following Frostie in the afternoon sessions.

4. Opening night at the Rex in Stratford-playing alongside Froggy, & live pa's including Odyssey & the late great Edwin Starr, The biggest stage in London filled with nothing but us & a set of decks and a few thousand people in front of us. - Shame the venue went downhill with the new owners, but great memories.

5. Main Room Caister- I get a lot of stick for playing early sets in the main room, but their is nothing like playing in that big room on a big sound especially on the first night, their is always a great atmosphere in there especially as people enter the room for their first time of weekend and get stuck into it! For some reason ive always been given a two hour slot early evening and I love it! Gives me a chance to mix it up in the main room with the old and the new & give everyone a taste of what they will hear over the weekend and you can guarantee they'll be a busy dancefloor by the end of the set. 6. Clacton 98 - one ofFrosties hotel get togethers and when it comes to playing a pure soul set im constantly reminded by people of my first time at Clacton. It was only a 45-minute set but apparently it was a goodun!
