As with many people during the late eighties I was bitten pretty hard by the Acid House bug and I dived head first into the
warehouse scene.
I was already DJing in and around London playing ska and reggae, so I got some 1200s and learnt how to mix. I had left school
intending to become an actor and
worked pretty steadily doing small parts in film & tv until the lure of the dancefloor became far too great and I put that on
hold to open a record shop, Mighty Atom, in Windsor, Berkshire. It didn't reach the giddy heights we hoped but it did expand
our record collections and resulted in Mighty Atom Recordings, for which I have
recorded under many guises, both under my own name and as Lovejuice, Strobefunk (with Sam Gillett), Elektric Suedehead (with
Sid Burr) and Midnight Steppers (with Alex
Martin).
The shop also led me to Reading's infamous Checkpoint Charlie night where I eventually became resident alongside
the excellent Mat Carter.
Over the past year I have had the pleasure of collaborating with Bulgarian Housemeister KiNK,releasing two titles, 'Inside Out' and 'Full Flight', on Amsterdam's fine Rush Hour imprint.
When I'm not in the studio you might find me searching out obscure and unnecessary physical exercises and then attempting to
execute them in the local park.
I've also just published a book with my brother, photographer Gavin Watson, called Raving '89.
It's a collection of photographs and tales from 1989 taken at various warehouse raves and outdoor parties and will be out August 30th
published by the lovely chaps over at DJHistory. Check it out, you might even see yourself in it if you ever
frequented Slough Centre around that time.
