I've always had a love of music & technology. As a young boy I loved listening to the DJs on the radio and buying & playing records, so it was a natural progression for me to become a DJ. I've been doing it in some form or another for around 45 years.Playing mainly 80s boogie/funk/soul on Twitch (Sat/Sun 11am - 2pm UK time) https://www.twitch.tv/groovindj

Started as a kid by making tapes, pretending to be on the radio. Progressed to playing mobile gigs at school and for friends & family, then eventually hiring myself out professionally for weddings etc.
Over the years I've worked on radio, in clubs, DMC contests, trade shows and recording studios (including with a couple of #1 artists).
I use VirtualDJ Pro Infinity with various controllers, but also have Rekordbox, Serato, Algoriddim djay Pro & Traktor 3.
I have a Denon DJ Prime 4 for standalone use. For production recently I've been using standalone units such as Native Instruments Maschine+ with a Maschine Jam, Akai MPC X SE and Ableton Push 3. Push 2 is on standby duties.
Other s/w used = Streamlabs OBS, Resolume Avenue, Maschine with Komplete Ultimate Collectors Edition, Ableton Live Suite 12, Cubase Pro 13, Mixed In Key, Adobe Audition CC and numerous VST plugins.
Started messing around with skinning in 2014. I have modified numerous skins, both for myself and for others. I have also made skins from scratch. See Photos link in my profile.
