I have been learning and creating music since my first purchase of professional equipment (Korg 01/W FD keyboard) back in 1992.

All my musical influences have come from the very early days of listening to Hip Hop, getting caught up in the U.K Rave music scene, being turned onto Masters At Work and the Murk labels sound (to name but a few) from a natural progression out of rave to the dance / house scene in 93/94. I was also lucky enough to witness Drum & Bass form in the clubs from its early break beat days to Steppa, Bukem / speed era and beyond.

I have been a big fan of film soundtracks which has lead me to become a firm listener of Classical music and certain Classical composers, while digging back to the original productions of Jazz/Funk/Latin after coming full circle through my original Hip Hop & Break beat references. This has helped me keep a very open view to what I have wanted to create musically, and a completely open mind to all the forms in both music and media work.
