"...I'm sick of following my dreams. I'm just going to ask them where they're going and hook up with them later..."
I'm the presenter of FADEOUT, the Dark Alternative show on PHOENIX RADIO. Fadeout is where I play the best in Goth, Industrial, Darkwave, the whole bloody barrel to the masses...
Outside of this, I'm married with a couple of lovely kids, an owner of two highly demanding cats and a mandatory day job, I hardly have two spare minutes in my life to rub together!

Musically...I've got a very broad appreciation of the scene I support, though I'm elementally a goth of the old school variety. Hence when I do DJ slots I mostly play 'old school goff classix'. I'm not at all afraid of electronic music, but Eastern European crunch & bleep techno floorstompers grow tired very quickly with me!

Sounds Like
...an Avalanche of Doktors with the reverb up full, in a room where dry ice is pouring from the clove cigarettes of a thousand poets from behind their black silk fans, drinking red wine and discussing Byron. Or something.
