Playing at raves and clubs he moved to England and back to Scotland to continue to DJ and produce DNB and Breakbeat.
Toni has moved from his home town of Glasgow to Lodz - Poland where he now lives and has started to get acclaim.

Toni wishes one day to retire in a submarine and teach his children how to play and make him money as he is a lazy man who enjoys sleeping and dressing up like a pirate and scaring the life out of animals and children alike. for any bookings contact via hotmail on on myspace- tonismoke@hotmail.co.uk

The beast that is Pangea returns in September, for the next installment from Glasgow's biggest drum and bass night. A favourite among both drum and bass heads and those who just want a party, Pangea has been tearing up dancefloors in Glasgow, Edinburgh and Dundee for 5 years. With a highly respected resident crew that has played alongside many of the leading lights in DNB and the best choice of guest dj's and mc's from the Scottish scene, Pangea continues to keep the people dancing, rinsing out sound systems but not your bank balance.
For our 5th birthday celebration we are joined by two of Scotland's premier DJ's: Dave Lowe and D-Fade. Both are residents at Edinburgh's mighty Split, and regularly play at other nights such as Symbiosis, Obscene and their new venture Touchbass. Two of the most technically gifted drum and bass dj's around, their dancefloor friendly selection is guaranteed to be a perfect soundtrack for the birthday bonanza.
