I’ve been back in the studio cooking up some fine funk & soul with the man they call the Sugar Ray! 2 sublime low slung tracks that carry on from our last Ep, pushing classic sounds into the nu disco territory. This Ep is out now on Grits N Gravy…

This is another hip hop inspired booty bass tune that I put together, in much the same vein as ‘Get Crunk’ which I dropped as a free download a few weeks back. Again it’s a free download so go & grab it from the Soundcloud player!

It’s always such a pleasure to play at Space, Ibiza for my good friend Mr Doris at his After Dark Ibiza night. The year he’s joined up with the legendary Carl Cox to host the Sunset Terrace at Music Is Revolution on Tuesday 13th Sept. In the After Dark room I’ll be spinning alongside A.Skillz, Mr Doris, Ghetto Funk Allstars & Kevin Cutts. The other rooms will host John Digweed, Marco Carola, Deetron, Eli & Fur, Saeed Younan & of course the big man himself Mr Carl Cox who shall be playing 2 sets, 1 on the Sunset Terrace right before we kick off there!

This season is the last on Space, Ibiza as the venue is being taken over from next year with everything changing. It really is the end on an era & this party is going to seriously going to be one to remember!

It’s been a little while since I dropped an EP on Grits N Gravy, the label I run with Philly Blunt. Over the last few month I’ve been busy behind the scenes in the studio making LOADS of music, some in a cheeky sample heavy vein such as this 3 track release & some more on the original tip. Lots more on the way but for now get your ears stuck into the Funk Jammer EP!

In December, boxing day in fact, I played at Breakfest in Perth (WA). It’s an awesome festival held in one of the best venues you’ll ever find, a huge natural ampitheater. This is my set from the day. You can find the full track listing in the info section on the Soundcloud player. I had so much fun putting this together & performing it on the day. I was even lucky enough to play at the legendary after-party at Ambar (one of my favourite clubs in the world). I highly recommend checking out Breakfest if you ever get the chance!
