As we begin the run in to this weekend, get those diaries out in preparation for my next visit to Rita’s Bar, Cocktails & Kitchen for another evening of classic house magic ✨

As last time I’m going to cover a spectrum of soul-flavoured genres, from deep, to Latin, disco, funky, jackin’ and US garage - depending on how we feel I may even roll back the years and dig out some speed garage whites to bring along 🤣💥

I loved it so much last time I even made some new artwork 🤣🙌🏻

Come down, I would love to see you 👊🏻

It was so nice to be back 🎧

Thank you Rita’s Bar, Cocktails & Kitchen for the warm welcome back, and the great reception from the customers 🙌🏻

I’ve recorded the first three hours or so, so will stick it up on my Mixcloud later on today; I was really pleased with how tight my mixing still was as I haven’t played a gig since June - always things I can improve but it really is like riding a bike 🙏🏻

Most important was the difference in how I felt because I found with my music I was getting lost trying to please too many people, and my mindset was to be true to what I was feeling and have courage that my people would find me and they did 😊

Last fifty minutes or so I let rip with some R&B and dancehall just to enjoy that big sound system too👌🏻

🚨NEW MIX ALERT! 🚨

When I put these together it usually starts with me being triggered by a single track and working outwards from there. This time it was Harry “Choo Choo” Romero’s classic “Tania” from 2001, so edging out sideways from there I took in some disco, jackin’ and funky house, both past and present. Always room for a few classics too, so listen out for those.

About me

I love music. It’s my passion. It’s my happy place. It’s what I think about when I daydream.

It feels like being a DJ was always my destiny from when I was boy. From chopping up cassette recordings from the chart rundown with my dad on a Sunday to the life’s work that is my music collection, I always felt this was where I’d end up somehow. And here I am, coming into my 25th year as a DJ.

My fascination with the art began aged around 7 or 8 when I would avidly watch every move of the mobile DJs at our local social club. This addiction to the DJ’s craft developed over the years through being mesmerised by the scratch artistry of DJ Hype to admiring the production brilliance of people like Masters at Work. A common thread in all my heroes has been a combination of their professionalism, attention to detail and most importantly that ability to take people on a journey through their music. It’s these traits that I’ve always tried to incorporate in what I do whether it’s when I go out to play or on my radio show.

I’ve spanned a few genres over the years. I learned to mix in the earlier days of hardcore, modelling myself on people like Slipmatt and Carl Cox, before progressing into house music and the smoother more refined sounds of the likes of David Morales, Erick Morillo and Louie Vega. I’m not a music snob however and I do enjoy also a good blast of some “guilty pleasures” at a party every now and again. This goes right back to my original fascination with the fundamental art of the DJ as an entertainer and all round people-pleaser.
