About me:
I run a small drum n bass record label called Nerve Recordings and also work for a media company on the old 9-5, working on the music website.
As a dj, I've been playing out for over 12 years at a whole manner of wild n wonderful places, from a disused slaughterhouse in Vienna to a boutique clothes shop in New York via pretty much every club in Scotland. I've played to small crowds, large crowds and no crowds - ranging from over 2000 people at Newcastle Uni (for Turbulence) to around 5 people at the Brunswick Hotel in Glasgow at 6AM one Sunday morning.
I co-ran the monthly LiveVEvil event at the Glasgow School of Art from 2000-2005 and am now resident at Xplicit, Scotland's biggest drum n bass night with residencies at the Bongo Club and Potterow in Edinburgh and various guest spots elsewhere.
As a producer I put out quite a lot of drum n bass material in the early 2000s including material on the legendary Trouble on Vinyl and Underfire Records. Alongside a whole host of breaks material on Nerve Breaks (the defunct sister label of Nerve) and various other breaks labels. I don't really produce anymore and concentrate more on the dj'ing, the day job, running Nerve and trying not to piss off the wife too much.
Cheerz man, I've only got the 'Fuzdup' vinyl. Had it since about 2003/04. I feel quite behind as I started out mixing dNb and have only just recently started mixing breaks, it's all fun tho and nice to have a change from mixing drum and bass for a bit, I'm currently on the hunt for some more of your 'nerve breaks' records.I kno they're out there somewhere. Peace......
Hey Paul, had a really good night last night. Sorry to be wankin about when you start to play and not showin you the mixer. hopefully ill see ya before i m off. take care n speak soon. Manu

For the first Nerve release of 2009, we're very proud to present the debut EP from Copenhagen's Jean Doe.
It's drum n bass tinged with detroit techno and deep house, from the glitchy beats of the title track to deep rolling vibes on "Nuance" and "Fibre" before fellow Copenhagen based producer Pyro joins him for the epic and uplifting "Ambitions in A Minor".
