Make the plan. Work the plan. The plan works. These are the words I utter to myself as I begin the long but exciting journey of releasing an album.
This was meant to drop as standalone remix. And after much deliberation with the band's former record label (who they are no longer with), we were finally allowed to release...

Hi gang!
Some of you will remember this dropping last summer, and as is tradition, when something drops to the general public, you guys, especially new crew, get to hear it and have the chance to grab it again. My patreon music will mostly never be released publicly, but about small percentege of my remixes and boots wi...

You guys all know I'm always trying push the boundaries and road test new styles and genres (as long as it's funky!). Most if not all the music I create for Patreon is always part of my own DJ sets and mixtapes, but do you want to hear more of a certain style? Here's ya chance!

Hi gang, the version I uploaded the other day to my Patreon was an early draft: I actually had two tunes in Volume 2 that were in Volume 1 and quickly realised this!
Anyway, please find the final version attached. And also a link to it on Soundcloud if you feel like shouting about it!

Yes gang. I don't think you're ready for this tune... I really don't!
This is the first banger in a series of several singles which will ultimately culminate in my debut album. It's funky, it's scratchy, there's a brass section, I'm scratching all over it and there's a huge bass drop. It's me, personified on a record. P...

"With Hip Hop reaching its 50th year milestone, it was only was only a matter of time until breakbeat stalwart Krafty Kuts and scratch maestro Jimi Needles partnered up on their next mixtape together. Two DJs from two different eras of Hip Hop music mixing and mashing the records that truly defined them."

Hello friends!
This is a track that has been a staple in my Disco / House sets since 2020, I refrained from putting it out during the Pandemic because really believed it need a label; a home. Fast forward to the release date next week on the 25th January 2024, the amazing Bristol-based Thick Boy Records have signed it a...

Now it's usually tradition that I'll remix a Christmas classic in the style of D&B or Jungle, and this year is no exception!

Some of you may recall getting an exclusive look at this festive feast two years ago, but it ''officially'' dropped last year and had some crazy love from people all over the world. You can stream it here, on Soundcloud, and download it below.

Dear all Patrons
As I'm sure you are aware I'm a bit late on this months drop! (To all my new patrons, welcome, and watch out around the 15th of each month when music drops) - currently got 3 mixtapes on the go, and had to buy/transfer my production suite to a brand new computer as my iMac sadly passed away (luckily I d...

Although there's no exclusive download for yal, there WILL be some Patreon-exclusive edits and mashups from this mixtape dropping over the next few months so keep your eyes peeled. I've included the tracklisting below just in case any of you were wondering!
Been messing with loads of speed breaks, UKG and bass house - thanks post UK Festival season. Hopefully this dose of nostalgia coupled with one of the biggest UK grime anthems will bring the hype!
Patrons have access to the instrumental (attached). If you'd like the full version, please visit and download it here on
