Where Are You From? -

How Did You Start DJing? Or What Led
You To Want To Be A DJ - I started off listening to tapes
from old Birmingham pirate stations, gradually progressed to
writing lyrics and messing about mc'ing. Eventually ended up
buying decks as i was the only one with the funds to get them at
the time, then started to buy vinyls and its progressed from
there
What Are Your Goals As A DJ?:
My main goal is enjoyment, I used to put a lot of emphasis on
"blowing" and making it big but these days i do it more for the
enjoyment. I am currently focusing on practicing with a wider
range of genres and catering for a wider audience.
What Influences You? - tough
one for me to answer, i'd have to say my main influence is
simply the enjoyment that I get from mixing tunes, seeing the
reaction to a good mix and a big tune dropping and then the
challenge of then having to better that with whatever comes
next
What Have You Done, In Terms Of Gigs
Or Projects - i used to DJ under the name DJ Blizzard,
during this period i played at numerous sets and events at a
wide range of venues up and down the country and was a regular
at Sidewinder events. I also used to DJ for Lady Leshurr which
took me to various venues around Europe and even got to play at
Glastonbury (many moons ago)
What Are You Currently Doing Now In
Terms Of Residencies Or Other Projects? - I am currently
just making sure i practice as much as i can, mixing a wider
variety of music and preparing myself for any crowd that i may
face. I have been trying to push my mixcloud links and doing my
best to secure a club residency or two.
What Projects Are You Looking To Do
In The Future?: - in the future i just plan to keep my
mixes coming, keep spreading the word and most of all keep
enjoying what i do. Anything else that follows is a bonus.
