John is a DJ, Producer, Head Honcho at Paisley Dark Records and host of the monthly radio show, “A Space Age Freak Out,” where he showcases the very best and latest, psychedelic infused electronic dance music. From his youth, he has been an avid collector of vinyl and has been a passionate and knowledgeable music fan since the heady days of punk. His first gigs and introduction to live music were, The Stranglers, The Ramones, The Clash and The Buzzcocks, a love of which he still has today. Many years later on a trip to OutlawsYacht Club to see a “Chinwag,” with Andrew Weatherall, John began an unforeseen musical journey, that would see him share “booths” with some of his musical hero’s, there he was invited by, long-time friend and Chinwag host, Chris Madden to join himself and Gaz Lethbridge as a member of the Psychic Graffiti DJ team, a position which he still holds today and with whom he still plays monthly with at that very venue. John’s keen music sense and love of psychedelia, punk, funk, electro and dub greatly helped him in gaining a well-deserved reputation as a live DJ. Offers from local promoters were quickly followed by a headline slot on the Perfumed Garden stage at Beat-Herder. The circle was completed with a 3 hour warm up slot for Andrew at The Golden Lion, in Todmorden, at which The Guv’nor was said to be fishing for tunes John was playing. John’s production credits include remixes for BT Cop, Shunt Voltage, Japanese Television, Steady State, Clandestino, From Beyond and many more.
