<b>About Me</b> Born 1980 in Dublin (although people always ask me where Im from, partiuclarily in Dublin). Studied Furniture Design in college and been a fully paid up member of Bodytonic since the dark (but fun) old days of Bodytonic way back in 2002. Many's a night spent beating the street in the pouring rain, dishing out flyers then dishing out tunes to you lot in the clubs. Fast forward years later and Im dishing out pints in The Bernard Shaw. Thats alot of dish. <b>Music</b> The first ever concert I went to was James Brown when I was 12 after being super inspired by seminal Irish flick The Commitments so soul and funk has always been the back bone to what Im into. Around a year or two later I discovered The Prodigy and the joys of the big beat. Been DJing, loosely speaking, since I was 15, being a Stereotonic/12 ressie with Bodytonic and been off around the place from Electric Picnic to Chibuku, Barcelona to Cork with a bag of records since. I love house music, from disco to techno and occasionally something else perks my ears up. Currently <b>Interests</b> Im a simple man of simple tastes. Music is where most of my cash money goes, bits of gear and the missus is where the rest goes. Cant stand shopping and apparently I talk about food alot. Im also planning on taking up Kite Surfing this summer, looks sooo good. Have a background in design so am fond of the auld aesthetics. <b>Hates</b> There are things I hate but I always forget them, probably a good thing but what gets my goat up is dishonesty and injustice. On occasion I take a dislike to people on first site, having never met them. One example: Juliette Lewis. If ever there was a face that deserved a good slapping... <b>Loves</b> A good social! Cant beat the feeling of seeing alot of people having a good time and knowing you had something to do with it. Also like Mac's, Google, DJing, street art, design, photography, smart advertising, a good session and more stuff that ill stick up here when I remember I like it <b>Currently looking forward to...</b> Airbound in Croatia! Seeing Berlin when it's not f**king Baltic, making some headway in the studio, Cirque du Soleil <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/3paf2TLrgsg&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0x234900&color2=0x4e9e00"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/3paf2TLrgsg&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0x234900&color2=0x4e9e00" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object> <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/_J8hFkyMP3Y&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0x234900&color2=0x4e9e00"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/_J8hFkyMP3Y&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0x234900&color2=0x4e9e00" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object> <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/HPw3mPFiy3E&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0x234900&color2=0x4e9e00"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/HPw3mPFiy3E&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0x234900&color2=0x4e9e00" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>
