October 2011 Gig Report: Brazil & UK
Just a quick gig update from the last few weeks! On October 7th I made my way down to Brazil for Gatecrasher in Porto Alegre - my most brief Brazil trip yet, being in the country for just over 24 hours before heading back to Europe. Intense!

Group Therapy Tour Round-up: Part 1
It’s been a slew of excellent parties lately in the USA for the Group Therapy tour! Boston, St Louis, Charlotte, NYC, Orlando, Tampa and New Orleans: between all the shows and flying, I also found time to traipse through NY’s Central Park, get chased by an angry tornado and sit under the stars with the crabs in Florida.
I’ve been performing as opening act for Above & Beyond...

Miami Music Week 2011 Report
Thanks to everyone who came and supported the beats in Miami for WMC/Ultra this year.

Fun in the sun, and that’s only the half of it..
Myself and good buddy Jeera (pictured above) hit...

Anjunadeep 03: first week round-up!
Anjunadeep:03 has been out for a week and so far it’s been a great success! We got loads of good press including a 4 star review from DJ Mag, the CD also went #1 on the iTunes Dance Albums charts in the US on day one of release. It’s been months of hard work and countless hours of tune-sifting and hair out-pulling (well, James G would have been pulling his hair out if he had any)...
