Describe yourself using the title of a song.

I Just Want To Celebrate


What was the weirdest thing you believed as a child?

Jesus/religion.


What has been your most favourite gig to date?

DJing with Jam Master Jay in Sydney early 2000s and DJing with De La Soul three times. As far as a hip hop gig I’ve attended – Rakim in 1997 New York city at Tramps with DJ Premier on the decks = golden.

The most awkward moment you’ve had as a DJ?

Being mistaken for a Cook/Short Order Chef and getting ‘three hotdogs and chips’ as a request. Also playing Marvin Gaye while model Helena Christiansen came up and asked for some Marvin Gaye at Soho Bar in the early ’90s in Sydney.  

What would be the worst dance track in the world to be tortured with on repeat?

Any dance track. They’re all not my cup of tea, I prefer music with that soul/analog feel.

 What’s the most played record in your bag?

Agent 86 – Big Shot


If you hadn’t made it as a DJ, what job would you choose to work in instead?

Apprentice power pole painter.

When and where is your next gig?    

Saturday October 26 (Phaturdays at Bluebar330) and Sunday October 27 (Sunday Jamrock at Howler).
