Our Story
A Journey Reignited
My musical journey began over three decades ago, spinning vinyl and building dancefloors long before playlists and streaming existed.
After stepping away from DJing for a 35-year hiatus, life took him in different directions — but the passion for music never faded.
In recent years, I returned to the decks with renewed energy, blending the experience and musical knowledge of the past with modern DJ technology and contemporary crowd-reading skills.
My sets draw heavily on classic eras — from the 70s, 80s and 90s through to today — creating feel-good, sing-along moments that connect generations on the dancefloor. Now firmly re-established on the local scene, I bring a seasoned, reliable and authentic approach to weddings, private parties and celebrations, proving that great DJs don’t just play music — they tell a story, and my story has come full circle.

Our Team
I’ve been married for over 35 years and although my wife isn’t involved in my DJ activities, I couldn’t achieve my aspirations without her support.
