Having just started to listen to bhangra music on tapes in the early 80’s. These were mainly the big hits looking back now and belonged to my father and he kept them near the hi-fi and in the car. All original tapes from Gurdass Mann and Bhujhangy. I was hooked on the fast Indian dhol drum beats. The energy behind the singing and the modern basslines. Slowly I started to buy a few records and more original tapes. The first band I saw live was Bhujhangy Group who performed in Southall at a wedding.These are the Real Legends back in the days with they 70’s & 80’s.

I started dj ing in the late 80 approx 86/87. It was good time to teach myself the art of dj’ ing and entertainment, I didn’t know any DJs so just mixed in the bedroom. Since then I have never looked back have played at most popular nightclubs in UK and Bhangra gigs.
Promoters were booking me as I mixed Vinyl records with bhangra hits (big bangra hits) for the then young Crowd like they not heard it before. It was not unusual to do the whole Bhangra Gig night!.
