My Background:

I have over 5 years of experience as a house music DJ and electronic music producer, with a degree-level education from SAE Institute. I have performed at some of Liverpool's top venues, as well as a select few in Leeds and the prestigious Amsterdam Dance Event. I pride myself in being known for my high-energy sets whilst adapting a distinctive sound. 

• Vibe Liverpool: “We’ve always loved working with Chris; he’s a true craftsman when it comes to DJing and production. His ability to read the room and think outside the box with his selections consistently impresses us. Chris often plays undiscovered tracks which receive better receptions than the usual crowd pleasers, he seamlessly incorporates his own strong productions into his sets. One of Chris’s unique qualities that we’ve enjoyed is the energy he brings behind the decks. He reacts to the music as if hearing it for the first time, and this always draws enthusiastic crowds to his sets.”
