Having cut his teeth as one of the original resident DJs at the seminal Venus, Nottingham in the early 90’s, Christian went on to play at most major venues across the UK and Europe during the halcyon days. Early in the decade he gained pride of place on the Face Magazines’ barometer of “What’s Hot and What’s Not” listed as “…a Balearic DJ who can mix…one to watch” and later was named DJ of the Month in i-D Magazine – which in turn led to a coveted place on their World Tour alongside Tony Humphries.
His career blossomed further in the ensuing years and bestowed him not only with the privilege of playing alongside such luminaries (and musical heroes) as David Morales, Roger Sanchez, Masters at Work and Danny Tenaglia but also his original inspiration, Graeme Park. By the mid 90’s he established himself as a staple at the legendary Southport Weekenders and secured a monthly residency at the Ministry of Sound. A disco-tinged house sound rapidly became his trademark and was also prominent in his later production work under the Nu-Soulboy moniker with remixes and releases coming through such labels as Virgin (VC) Records and Todd Terry’s SoundDesign imprint. More recently his production work has been reinvigorated with two tracks coming out during 2023 and further releases slated for 2024.
In 2020, Christian reignited his passion for DJing, this time through the medium of radio. He launched his weekly show Feel Love Friday, on Crackers Radio and having had two years away on another platform, Christian returns to the station. The show continues to grow in popularity week after week, now attracting guests from the very top tier of the house music scene…

Adrian has always loved playing music, to the point of building a DJ booth in his teenage bedroom, much to his mother’s disapproval. He built his first DJ set in the early 70s with a couple of old used turntables and a 4-channel mixer. Adrian used that old set to play music for dances at […]

I’ve been into music probably since birth in February 1958 and it plays a massive part in my life – it’s a part of me. My first memorable experience was the indescribable feeling I experienced lying in my bed and listening to the wireless playing Theme From A Summer Place by Percy Faith & His […]

I started my DJ career with belt-driven decks and vinyl more than forty years ago. and I have my musical roots from the deep funk and jazz, latin-jazz music emanating from Black America. This has given me a great understanding of dance music ranging from 60’s Soul, 70’s Disco, 80’s Rare Groove, 90’s dance and […]
