I was lucky to be a young fella during the Golden Age Of Hip-Hop (the late '80s, '90s) with some of the best rappers and djs releasing classic after classic.
I naturally evolved into funk, soul, blues and jazz, where most of the hip-hop I loved was sampled from.

I was lucky to be a young fella during the Golden Age Of Hip-Hop (the late '80s, '90s) with some of the best rappers and djs releasing classic after classic.
I naturally evolved into funk, soul, blues and jazz, where most of the hip-hop I loved was sampled from.
I started diggin' in back alley record shops all over Dublin and became a fiend for vinyl.
Around this time, I was listening to a pirate station called Jazz 89.8FM which played all sorts of music. I made a mix out of my growing collection and landed myself a weekly slot. I was over the moon and had full control over everything I played. That continued for 6 glorious years, which included playing Jazz FM club nights and the Cork Jazz Festival.
Since then I've made plenty of mixes and got into more upbeat stuff, remixes, mash-ups, EDM, dubstep, ghetto funk etc
A few years ago, I moved to Vancouver.
where I joined CITR 101.9FM and landed a show which I called Bootlegs & B-Sides. Here, I get to play the cream of the crop of mash-ups, remixes, cover versions, dubstep, house, hip-hop, bootlegs and other hidden gems.
The show received a nomination from the Canadian Stylus Awards, for one of the radio shows of the year 2012. Cheers for listening.
