First here's a profile on him:

Hixxy is from Portsmouth, UK and his DJ roots can be found with an obsession for US Hip Hop and Rap and watching DMX Championship Videos. In the early 90s when Rave culture was sweeping the UK, Hixxy got caught up in the tide. He met up with Ramos, Supreme and Sunset Regime and started playing out across the south coast of the UK.

In 1992 he met DJ Dougal at Dreamscape and a ledgendry partnership was born. Soon they created their own label... Essential Platinum. Hixxys big production break came in 1995 when he released, with the then MC Sharkey... Toytown, a massive hit. The tune was released by React Records and Hixxy had made a name for himself. In 1996 Hixxy released his first Album.. the Massive Bonkers series was born, the third installment went silver and was the biggest selling Hardcore series ever. By 1999 the Hardcores scene was dying and Hixxy was becoming disolusioned with the tracks being released and felt the scene had had it. After a lot of soul searching Hixxy felt he couldnt abandon a scene he had put so much energy, time and money into. A decision he is now glad he made, as by 2006 Hardcore was going from strength to strength, with lots of Raves, tunes and labels including his label Raver Baby.

Interview with the one and only HIXXY:

QM: 2006 has been a massive year for you with Raver Baby label/events. What can we expect from you over next year?

Hitd in the sun is the main thing we're working on at the moment and I'm thinking it will be LARGE!!!!!! also got loads of releases coming out as double and triple packs again
