BIO: Frankie Gunns started his journey into DJing back in 1991 buying hip hop and house records and listening to the local Toronto radio station and hearing the sounds of James St. Bass on the Hardrive show. He then heard the sounds of the
hardcore. What cemented his passion towards what we know as Jungle and Drum and Bass today, is when his friend Kevin (Moonstarr) handed him a Dr. No tape in the summer of 93 and it was all over!!! Hooked for life!!! Major influences back in the day came from Dr. No, Medicine Muffin, Jungle PHD, Ruffneck, Marcus, and anything Reinforced!!! Over the years he became heavily influenced by the sounds of a Guy called Gerald, Underground Resistance, 4-hero and anything involved with Reinforced records, Metalheadz, Photek, Source Direct, Luke Vibert...You know the score! Working alongside Moonstarr and Mano from Public Transit Recordings he learned how to throw jams and work with a record label and refine his skills in those areas as well as dj'ing at events. Dave Cooper is a very pivotal person and great friend in Gunn's life hooking him up with a job at the legendary Play De Record in Toronto, Canada. Where he now works full time as manager as well as having many residencies all over the city of Toronto thanks to his wide knowledge of all types of music! He was involved in his own production company throwing parties under the name Threshold Productions, was also a partner with C64 and others in helping with the record label Make:Shift Recordings and helps out with the Selection nights with Theory at the Guvernment nightclub. Recently coined as one of Denise Benson's top ten people in Toronto music for 2006 to watch out for!!! Gunns has been featured on the same bills as LTJ Bukem, Fabio, 4-Hero, Blame, Klute, Randall, Photek, Paradox, Seba, Calibre, Breakage, Equinox, John B, Chase & Status, Mampi Swift...Just to name a few. A legendary fixture in Toronto's Drum and Bass scene and still setting the pace as he keeps moving forward with his new endeavour LEGACY with partners DJ Prime and producer/DJ Gremlinz!!! Watch out!
