Hi Little South. This is so unexpected but I’m absolutely buzzing!!!


Yeah 2021 has been another tricky year for the scene. It’s been frustrating not knowing when or when we can party with the covid restrictions constantly changing, I feel for the organisers and promoters. I only had one gig this year with the Orbital Gathering crew which was a banger. Those guys know how to put on a party. 


I’ve always said that everyone loves a bit of techno! Luckily my style has always been liked and the ravers have always enjoyed my sets. I try to keep my sound current and not fall in the trap of the stereotypical sounds that are being produced. I have always stuck with my style and not been one of those that will play any genre to get a gig. The harder, hypnotic and raw edged techno is my passion and that’s what I want to known for. 


It’s great to see yourselves still plugging away at Cornish nightlife and keeping us informed. I reckon it’s going to be long slow recovery for the scene but with the die hard southwest party goers there will always be a need for for a good night out. 


Firstly I would like to thank Little South for having me back to put a mix together, it’s always a pleasure. I would also like to thank everyone who had taken time listen not only to my Little South podcasts but all the other mixes I post. Let’s hope that 2022 will bring us all back together on the dancefloor.
