Biography:
Chris spent the latter years of his teenage life in the Opera House in Bournemouth worshipping the DJ’s week in week out. It was after a few months of these banging nights out that he decided he wanted some of the action, so pair of decks and a mixer was purchased. Three years on and Chris’ mixing style has been described as ‘tight & technical’ which has won him sets at major promotions in London and around the country. Chris has also just finished a year studying for an HND in Music Production, which was attained at distinction level, so is now producing and playing out his own tunes.

Music Policy:
Chris’ music style has evolved from the early days of euphoric trance, progressing onto the hard German Trance and now settled on hard house and techno. With a collection of around 700 tunes, variety is always on the agenda, whether it is trance, hard trance, techno or hard house!

Future Plans:
Chris will be graduating from Guildford’s Academy for Contemporary Music in October this year so will continue to produce and play his own tunes within his sets, whilst continuing with self promotion for DJ sets.
