I'm a London-born, Auckland-based music producer, remixer and DJ with a career spanning R&B, pop, house, soul, jazz, disco and broken beat. I'm passionate about soulful, percussive grooves and maintaining dancefloor energy with musical authenticity. I've produced and remixed for major labels including Motown, EMI, Sony and Defected, worked alongside some of the world's most respected DJs and artists, and been involved in UK top 40 records. I also built Groovadelica from a record imprint into a thriving club night and radio show, continuing to release soulful, groove-driven music with a global perspective.
