I first began djing at the age of 18, starting off on a terrible worn out pair of belt driven turntables, but i soon realised that I was musically talented and was able to make the best with what i had. I then progressed futher and was able to get my timing and beat mixing perfect. I then went from playing in my bedroom to playing family and friends parties in which i had learnt that I was a great entertainer and how I could really please the crowd I took these experiances and moved on to playing on local radio stations.


I was booked to play at the Camden palace in north london. It was a trace and techno event called tribal gathering. in the second room i was booked to play funky and soulful house. After making my way in and up to the second room, i feared my style of music would not be apprecited. I got to the second room and noticed their were just a few people siting around listening to the dj .. me who was playing techno. I thought oh-no this promoter has made a big mistake in booking me.
I was still looking forward to playing as i always do and so proceeded to go on. I put on my first record and began to get in to the mood and feel of the music when the second turntable stopped working, i could not belive it, I was gutted! it was my worse knightmare come true. No, sound, no anything.
The engineer was on the way, but i would not give up on it. I checked the wiring in the turntable and it began working again, ( yes!!!) I continued to play all the tracks I had planned to, when I noticed that the room i was playing in was full! I could not belive it, within about 30mins this room with a few people in was full! Bobbing heads and joselyn bodys everywhere! Their were so many people still trying to get in this room that extra doorstaff were needed and the bar in the corner of the room which was shut had to be opened.
The end of my set had come, the last record was playing and i was packing up and making my way out of the room but i was bombarded by people paying me compilments and praise on playing such a great and fantastic music
