My DJ career started back in late 90’s when i got doing small gigs in bars around my hometown Dundalk. I got my breakthrough with Bumblebee promotions and became a resident with their hugely popular Techno and Hardhouse nights in ‘The Gate Niteclub’ which hosted many big events with the likes of Nukleus ,Sundissential, Reactivate,Trade,Tripoli Trax and Manumission amongst others.

I had the opportunity to go and work in the U.S in 2002 where i lived in Pittsburgh for 2 years and hooked up with the SFJ crew and held down a regular slot on the south side strip of the city. I returned to Ireland in 2004 and got working with Clubclass and Rush promotions running a weekly event in Sky Niteclub, Dundalk supporting likes of John O Callagan, Bryan Kearney, Tall Paul & Judge Jules playing trance club classics. I then spent a few years traveling around Asia and Austraila and guest Dj at some events in Phi Phi, Brisbane and Darwin.

Around 2010 I came home and held regular slots under different promotions up and down the east coast of Ireland for DJ collectives such as Vinyl Sound Systems, Freespirit, and Headfunk playing techno and tech house, and hooked up a residency in the popular Kinetic D.C club nights which took place in Sides niteclub, Dundalk as well as helping build the BOHO Clubnights brand with events in Dundalk and Dublin, we also branched out with MODA a more downtempo nu disco vibe night. At that time I was also a co-presenter of the BOHO radio show every Thursday 10pm – 12 on Irelands best station for underground, upfront house music – Phever 93.2fm Dublin and globally on https://www.phever.ie/. Over the last few years i’ve been learning music production and im currently working on a EP to release in 2022.
