With an interest in DJing spanning twenty years, Spices career began on the house party circuit as part of the Buzz Boys entourage, mixing up Rare Groove, Funk, Hip-Hop and early House music. Earning a reputation for mashing up the dance in next to no time, Spice soon made the logical step up to pirate radio, gaining a regular slot on Londons infamous Fantasy FM. The capitals biggest station at the time, Fantasy was partly responsible for the imminent explosion of House within the UK and threw regular events at the legendary Astoria, where Spice soon found himself resident. Rinsing the tunes of the early 90s to 2,000 people every Saturday night, the early life signs of Drum and Bass began to creep into his sets. Since the very beginning, Spices contribution to the music industry spanned far beyond the performance arena. Finding employment in distribution initially for Pacific and then SRD in the late 80s, Spice took the step up to A&R a few years later and joined forces with Soapbar Records and Total Music Records, whom for the latter he ran record shop Total Music in Bethnal Green. Label artists included Moby, Judge Jules, T Power and plenty more of the dance music scenes movers and shakers, earning Spice valuable industry experience from the years of 1991-5. Climbing up the next rung of the career ladder into the production arena, he released on Hardcore Vinyl, Brand New 49T2, DKB, Soapbar Records and rolled out remixes for the mighty Suburban Base and Black Market International throughout this period.Throughout the first half of his career, Spice repped for a vast number of promoters including Telepathy, Vision, BCM, VIVID, Labyrinth, Breakfast Club, Enigma, Heaven On Earth, Biology, Soundshaft and many, many more. He also achieved no mean promotional feat himself in setting up website www.Raveguide.co.uk in 2000, a cornerstone of the UKs e-flyer service that now boasts 75,000 members. In the years following the turn of the millennium, Spices stature as a DJ grew from strength to strength, hooking up with legendary pirate Kool FM for a regular show he holds to this day. Further club experience followed for the likes of legendary brands Moondance, Best Of British, True Playaz, Son Of Dance, Grace, One Nation, Hysteria, Jungle Fever, Innovation and countless others together with foreign experience in Spain, Germany, Russia, Estonia, Miami and the USA. Almost the final piece of the jigsaw, Spices label Foundation Music was set up in 2005 and now has eight releases under its belt; to quote the man, Foundation is about me contributing to the scene, I want to take the Foundation sound all over the world. http://www.djspice.com/ djspice.com spice@djspice.com (dj Spice) music en spice@djspice.com (dj spice) http://www.djspice.com/podcasts/djspice11211.xml Dj Spice Drum and Bass and Jungle Podcasts - www.djspice.com Dj Spice Drum and Bass and Jungle Podcasts - www.djspice.com spice@djspice.com (dj spice) djspice,dj spice,dnb,drum and bass,dnb,rave,d&b,drum n bass,jungle,drum & bass,d n b,kool,946,945,kool 946,kool 945,innovation,moondance,junge fever,fever,heat and fever,kool fm,raveguide,djspice.com,drumandbasswise no Dj Spice spice@djspice.com (dj spice) http://www.djspice.com/downloads6798a/podcasts600.jpg http://www.djspice.com/ Dj Spice 144 144
