| Worst DJing moment: | Recently at Planet Angel I was playing the set of my life, I'd just mixed in
the Nu NRG mix of G&M project Sunday Afternoon when one of the
weather balloons suspended above the DJ booth was burst by this bloke's
cigarette... Resulting in the remains of the balloon landing on the record,
knocking the needle into the middle with an enormous crunch... Thinking
quickly, I grabbed the balloon dropped the needle back where it had been
beforehand, pulled the balloon over my head like a swimming hat and
fired it off into the crowd to an almighty cheer!!! Phew well recovered!!!! |

| Biggest Influence: | Its gotta be Jurrane, Dan Stopani, Sly One and Tequila Sunrise from
Planet Angel, without their friendship advice and guidance I
would not be doing this today! |
| Words of wisdom: | "Don't just sit there waiting for your boat to come in...
swim out and meet the bloody thing!"
