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 & Breakbeat 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.
My production work has ranged from creating early soundtrack projects as ‘Creative Minds’, releasing a drum & bass E.P 'Jeremiah Project' which won and featured on BBC’s 1Xtra Bass CD, to collaboration work with Hip Hop collective Creative Control. This included a single track vinyl release of ‘Brave Free’ and ‘Metro Era’ as well as mastering and additional production on various tracks and E.P's. I have also worked with DJ Para with single tracks featured on his own CD releases with on going collaborations with Para and also Relent for future releases in 2008.
This work has also lead to Mastering of various CD projects for Creative Control, DJ Para mix CD’s and albums, Slomo albums and of course my own work.
