Of all the blends and genres of music I’ve played and enjoyed over the years, Jazz/Funk is probably my favourite blend. How would I describe it? Uplifting, musical , warm, danceable, spiritual, free, fun!
My latest "Jazz Funk Classics vol.1 " DJ mix features both well known and less known gems from Earth Wind & Fire, Roy Ayers, Eye Of The High, Level 42, Lessette Williams and more…
Hope you dig this mix as much as I do. To listen, click the link in my Bio...
Just posted a new DJ mix up on Mixcloud. Featuring one of my club fav flyers from back in the day for the artwork. "Club Classics & Future Funk" has music from Sola Rosa, Roy Ayers, Smokin' Beats, Peven Everett and loads more.

I'm still buzzing from Saturday's DJ gig in The Yard in Raglan. Man I love the vibes in Raglan (NZ's coolest beach town). Massive thanks to everyone who made it onto the dance floor. Kyoko's live art show was the icing on the cake & bigups to Esai for the early DJ set too!
I'm loving playing vinyl again. This Saturday I'll be dusting off a loads of my Disco, Funk, Soul & Garage 12's and playing at Nami Bar. I'm calling it the poor man's Splore Festival! So if you're not at the wonderful Splore this weekend and up for a dance, head down to Nami, Ponsonby road this Saturday 21st Feb.
Yowsa! I’ll be DJ'ing down at The Yard in Raglan with Esai (Melbourne/Wax Museum) on Saturday 28th Feb. Come and dance to a mixup of House, Garage, Latin, Disco & percussive goodness. With live art from Kyoko Shirai. Can’t wait for this one! tickets just $10 on the door. Would love to see you there.
Recorded live at Sunset bar, Auckland . This mix takes some musical mid-tempo twists and turns into Latin, Hip-Hop, Soul, Disco, House, Jazz with a bit of Prince & Earth Wind & Fire to add to the flavours. Available on Mixcloud & Spotify . Links are in my bio!
If you're in sunny Auckland this evening, drop by Nami Bar in Ponsonby and say Yowsa. I'm spinning Latin. Soul, Boogie & UK Garage on vinyl till 8:30. Just started! better go do some actual DJing now...
Just posted a new DJ mix on my Mixcloud page : BOUGIE HOUSE.
Classic, contemporary and posh NY & UK house from the early 90s to now. Head to the link in my bio to have a listen... And if you're out and about tonight, I'll be DJing at Nami Bar in Ponsonby with Christoph Trento. Come say hi and have a dance!
Yowsa! If you’re in Auckland City tonight, come say hi and enjoy the view at Sunset bar, rooftop of Sudima Hotel on Nelson Street - this guy (Cam Robertson) and me are spinnin’ soulful tunes….. If you’re elsewhere - I’ll be posting up my DJ mix on my Mixcloud page tomorrow.
I’m relieved, proud & happy to let you know I’ve finally finished my masters degree in music composition! It's been a mission and a half to get through it. I’m feeling like sitting in the sun for a week and giving my brain a rest.
