MAGNIFIQUE
I had my first encounter with proper DJing at a young age, sharing the decks with the likes of Rat Pack, Ellis Dee, Top Buzz and Seduction in the early 90’s at Insomnia, UK.
From there I played a host of places, like The Attic (Home of Shades Of Rhythm), The Monkey Bar, The Verve. I had my own night for a couple of years called "SOULFOOD" very eclectic (Funk/Soul/Hip-Hop/Jazz/House etc).
In 1995 I got a slot at DISCOPOINT (Ibiza).
I then had a break from it to go travelling and to start a family, but it wouldn’t be long before I got back behind the decks.
In 2012 I did a series of nights for the Eclectic Ballroom (Jim & Zed Glastonbury Festival fame), which then fueled the fire for performing. I started making my own tracks and general tinkering of that nature.
In 2013 "MAGNIFIQUE" was born! This lead me to promote a series of nights under the same name with the likes of Mr.B The Gentleman Rhymer, Jim & Zed (Eclectic Ballroom), DJ Cutmastersmart & B-Mize.
2013 was a great year, as this was the start of my residency at THE BIG CHILL HOUSE/BAR (Kings Cross/Brick Lane in London UK).
2015 I moved to Australia with wife & kids (Lucky Australia). Since being in Queensland I have played The Nook and Cranny in Nambour & landed a fortnightly slot at both Mooshka (Sunshine Beach) & many more venues . (This was playing down-tempo stuff, Funk/Soul/Jazz/Rare disco etc). I also produce a regular yoga mix for a local gym.
2017 I started to up my game and produce some higher standard of work with some original/edits & remixes, which in turn caught the eye of two dudes in Amsterdam (SHMLSS) who Play Records & Run a label called XXX @X3TheLabel & Disco selectors at 22TRACKS Amsterdam. They wanted to release one of my edits Smallage's italo-house piano classic 'Together'!!! Which was released mid Feb 2018 on a 12" vinyl record & sold out within 3 weeks. The track has been praised by Phonica Records (London) and played by the likes of Jacques Renault, DJ Rocca, Stijn Sadée, Mark Hume (DJ Mag/SoHo Radio/Cadillac Soundsystem) & many more.
Now in 2020, as I explore new music possibilities & learn new skills, I'm releasing a new track "Who's Barry" on Disco Fiasco Records.
