I am a classically trained musician but have always had a love of all electronic music, in particular trance. I was slowly introduced to electronic music through the sounds of Chemical Brothers, Prodigy and Orbital with snippets of similar sounds in a developing South Africa. However, it was Paul van Dyk's sound that truly captured me. I have distanced himself from the ‘fluffy’ trance sound of the late 90’s, and have expanded sets to include more tech, house and progressive sounds.

I have played alongside top trance and hard dance DJ's like Paul van Dyk, Markus Schulz, Scott Bond, Marc Van Linden, Giuseppe Ottaviani, Eddie Halliwell, Ronald Van Gelderen, Super8 & DJ Tab, Andy Moor, Mike Koglin, Richard Durand, Proteus, Adam Lab4, Andy Farley, Lisa Pin-Up, Nick Sentience, Vinylgroover, Phil Reynolds, Paul Glazby, Orkidea, Will Holland, Fred Baker, Marcel Woods, Adam Sheridan, Simon Patterson, Gavyn Mytchel and Signalrunners to name but a few.

I have played for most of London’s and the UK's top trance and house promotions ranging from Heat UK, The Gallery, Spangulation, Wildchild and Friendz. I have also played at many of London's top clubs ranging from Ministry of Sound, Turnmills, Koko, Heaven, The Fridge and SeOne.

I have promoted/DJ'ed for Friendz parties since 2007 and also promoted/DJ'ed for Wildchild events since 2005 until they dissolved at the end of 2007. Check out Friendz and join as members: Friendz Parties

Residency:

I am a resident DJ for an online underground radio station which I started with one of my brothers featuring upfront DJ mixes from all genres.

Static Progress is an independent online radio station that exists to enrich people’s lives with great programs and services that inform, educate and entertain. Its vision is to be the most creative, trusted station in the world. It provides a wide range of underground electronic dance music for everyone to enjoy, free of commercial interests.

Our music policy is 'anything that is underground and electronic'. We are not one of those other stations that only plays one genre. We believe "if you over specialize, you breed in weakness".
