Sardonic, cutting, piquant, brilliant, 100% my vibe.

Hats off lads. Saving up now.

The face you rock when you're on your way to debut at .

Tune in and listen to me in my big boy pants spinning bangers from .gurd and many more. Did I bring enough weapons to last until 10pm? Only one way to find out.

See you there.... oh 'eck.

Could have left this job until after Tuesday 12th 10pm.....

Rubbish.

Debuting on the massive next Tuesday and cannot wait. I'll have music to play....honest.

Definitely leaning on playing some awesome choons from the likes of .gurd - some insane stuff out right now. It's gonna be fun!

The imposter syndrome is real. Sat on this news absolutely buzzing and yet frozen in headlights because of how much I'm not ready for this yet. My life is a bit of a work in progress at the moment, but I keep pushing forward, and this possible journey takes me closer to knowing whether I've got the right stuff or not. I've loved music since forever and dreaming about doing something really creative with it, has always been just that, a dream. I still pinch myself daily that I'm really DJ'ing.

So with nothing to lose, I sent in a track I made to a creative college and then this happened.

Now I need to go shopping for big boy pants - a brown pair to be safe... 2025 here we come!

So, this is happening!

Pumped to be playing a showcase at the imperious studio next month. Unsure what I'll play as yet, but im seriously looking forward to it. So many artists and amazing DJs are or have been a part of this station and it's nuts I'll be an alumni.

Imposter syndrome is real, each and every time I turn on the decks, but 2024 is and will be a year for pushing in the right direction in all things. Can I cut it as a full time DJ, even producer? we'll see.

I love it, and that helps.

Played a funk and soul set last Friday (because theres a ton of synergy with my regular genres), and had the pleasure of chatting to a few punters who kept me on the right path throughout the night.

Getting that interaction with any crowd on a gig is life-giving behind the booth and can be the difference between feeling it after an hour or having the energy to go until you're told to stop.

It was also great to change it up a bit and slip in some Stevie Wonders and Sister Sledge for the win.

Finished the night on a supremely funky remix of Natural Blues.

Boom. I 'defiantly' hope to be back soon Jonny!

What a f*cking special bunch of people these are.

Saturday just gone, we launched out into the world at

What a night. What incredible music and feedback so good it looks like we're coming back.

This year I launched .uk to not just be a vehicle for invoicing and booking gigs, but also to throw awesome events for our DJs to showcase what we're about and more. SOCO LOCO was the first and these guys ALL knocked it out of the park.

We got a big freakin tick. Punters loved it and so did we. In a crowded weekend full of pride celebration, we didn't know what we would be treated to, but those who joined us at the start, stayed until the end and will be back for us again. And WE WILL BE BACK.

It wasn't easy, but what matters never is. , thank you x

.uk take your collective bow

Preppin' hard. One day to go!

Feeling it now. So close. Tantalisingly.

Going to share a stage with 5 awesome DJs I get to call friends at the sonically supreme on Saturday.

A tune that's been smashing up my setlists of late is this one from . Just a little insight into the pumping soundscape that you'll walk into right from the off.

SOCO LOCO arrives in 6 days with the .uk crew. Come get some!!

After a few Ibiza anthem gigs lately, it's safe to say I totally reconnected to a major part of my DJ upbringing. The early 00's were spent out most nights listening and clubbing to these tunes, and I left so many out putting this together, I'll be coming back for a part 2 compilation in the near future.

What are your iconic Ibiza tracks?

Link to new mix in bio. 🤩
