2) Tell us about your DJ/production history.
The Drum n Bass of the mid nineties really sparked my interest in dance music and I started buying records, learnt to DJ and bought a load of studio kit. Around 2000 I defected to the 4/4 template of house and quickly settled into djing with John Ashman (aka Episodes) as Sonicvisions.
3) How would you describe your style?
Techy but on the deep side.
4) What is your preferred media/tech?
It’s gotta be CDJ’s, my vinyl days are over! In the studio it’s Logic all the way.

Key Club (loved that disco dancefloor!), Fabric, DC10
