I own a forest preservation business protecting our rare and endemic flora and fauna from invasive introduced pest species here in New Zealand.
Am a true blue Kiwi bushman (a dying breed) and am immersed in nature every day.....this is where my music inspiration comes from and my connection to all things deep and psychedelic...cos what is more psychedelic than nature in her full glory right?

My musical journey began when i was barely 14 ( a school dropout , ADHD, Asperger's/Autistic freak lol) when i began spinning reggae vinyl at small parties. Ten years later i was playing big squat parties in London and eventually touring with the likes of TopCat, Congo Natty etc

Which is where i was first introduced to the european psychedelic rave scene of the early 2000's. Wow did i find myself on the dancefloor!!

Ive been a psynut butter sandwich ever since.

Since being back to New Zealand i have been privileged to play alongside the likes of Atmos, Young Kim and Suduaya to name but a very, very few (i aint listing all that shit...you are only really as good as your last mix/gig anyway right?)

So thats me.
