In May 1985, at just 19 years old, my career as a full-time professional club DJ began with a residency upstairs at the newly renovated Perth Underground Nightclub.

Fast forward to 2025 and I had an idea to celebrate the 40^th anniversary of this personal milestone but things got away from me and the moment passed. However, recent events have made me ponder, if not now … when?!?

So … a year late but here we go: a completely self-indulgent event reliving my journey through the electronic dance music which defined the eras and the major club residencies that I held over three decades behind the decks.

The event will be divided into three two-hour blocks moving chronologically through the 1980s, 90s and 2000s, here’s an idea of what you can expect to hear:
