Default Just had 3 tracks Signed!!

A few of you may know I made a few Jungle/Rave tunes “back in the day” and Dj’d all over the place 89-97. I had to stop in 97 as it was costing me more to buy Dub plates/records etc than I was earning playing them so had to hang up my headphones so to speak but always had a plan to come back!
I have been busy in the past few years building a home studio and learning my tools and have only in the past few months been happy with the results.

I put my tunes up on various producers websites in the hope that they may get heard by the right people.

Well at last all the hard work seems to be paying of as I have been in talks with various Record labels and have just been signed to a well respected label based in London (keeping it a bit hush until paper work sorted!)

They have signed an initial 3 tunes with more to follow if sales go well!

Buzzing is and under statement!

I feel like Dave V lately! Lol


Coming to an Itunes near you soon!

Nice one. I think I heard your tune before, was it the one with the Barrington Levy sample? I liked it, I love that genre.

Thats the one, I like that a lot. I feel a bit of dark side pressure with the b side

I'm really into my DnB and Jungle and would really like to get some new tunes, I end up listening to the same old tunes all the time. I don't have a vinyl player but have all the early stuff on CD ie stuff from the era of Foul Play, Hyper on Experience, Origin Unknown, Krome and Time, DJ SS, Ray Keith etc

Can you suggest any newer stuff that I could buy on CD? It has to be CD though, I don't want MP3 stuff.

Thanks and well done

Had a listen to the 1st track and although not my fave genre that's bloody good once it gets going properly.

I still love having a play on my decks, Breakbeat and hard house, but have maybe a dozen or so DnB that I really like .

Best of luck
