Biography:
I am proud to be a DJ for dandelionradio.com - as far as we know we are the only radio station inspired by John Peel - I was a Peel listener from 1976 to 2004 and it was his open minded attutude to different genres that has shaped my own tastes. It is a great buzz to be carrying on the great man's work and bringing previously unknown artists to the attention of our listeners.

As well as my radio DJing I have been known to drag a box of vinyl to some of the more exclusive parties and niteries - have a look at my myspace page. I play out a progressive house set as B_Man - you can download some of my recent mixes here. In the Bristol, UK area I DJ for Manna parties as well as Empathy, Voodoo and my own LOCALUNDERGROUND nights.

I am also part of the Getting Together team, playing out my Northern Soul set. My ambient / chillout / dub reggae / punk / soundtracks / psychedelia sets are also much in demand in certain (crop) circles. My label LOCALUNDERGROUND releases regular mix CDs - for details! I have also been known to play keyboards / drums in various ensembles and my recording studio StAR Studios, like me, has a busy schedule!
