DJ ROLY
My journey started in Southport when i was in my chalet and Lil stevie had his turntables there and i ask if i could have a go it was a disaster but i got the bug and as soon as i got home i purchased a pair of Technics 1210 turntables.
Then my good friend Dj79 came to my house with 2 of the same records and ask me to get it in time he said when you have done that call him, after days of practice and what i thought was in time he brought another record and said to mix that in to my disgust i was out of time and tune lol
Eventually i got the hang of this mixing lark and started doing a few house parties with Dj 79 helping and guiding me along the way.
I then applied for a slot on Phatbeats radio to my surprise they said yes i stayed there for one and a half years while there i was helped along by Dj Blu and Dj Woody who showed me a few tricks to improve my mixing.
While of the radio i purchased some pioneers cdj's 1000 and started to develope my own style of play i also watch a lot off other Dj's to see what they did while playing to make it easier for them while mixing
At this point i was ask to play in Spain and Egypt with Bigger by Rainham Dave
I then joined back2back radio while on B2B i was given a massive opportunity by Neil Pinnock to play at Country beat this would be a real test for me as there are a load of Dj's watching and listening to you at Country Beat from the success of this i had the pleasure of playing at Vocal Booth which is Andy Ward's event in Spain
I then left back2back after nearly 2 years which i must say was such an experience for me i learnt a lot about being a radio Dj as to just being a club Dj
Since then i have played at Campsoul festival in Oxford also The Beat Bunker in Malvern Hills in Worcestershire
I'm currently playing a monthly slot on pressureradio.com on Tuesday at 6pm
