About me:




(Me, Spain 2006)

Hi there,

I'm 28 years old and I live with my boyfriend of just over three and a half years in Forest Hill, Southeast London.

(James and I, Spain 2007)

I've got two sisters, one aged 11, one aged 23 and I have a huge family and extended family. All of which I love dearly.

Over the last ten years I have been lucky enough to have met some amazing people, who have all helped me in there own special ways to become the man I am today. I've danced, sang and worked intensely alongside many different people who have showed me how to enjoy life and to smile freely.

In my free time I enjoy relaxing in front of the television, with a good DVD and once in a blue moon, a nice take away (saves cooking), snuggled up to James or Satu (Anna) depending on who's about or home at the time.


(Anthony Rivers & I, Sept 2009)

In my spare time I'm currently working on finishing a script for TV that will hopefully get published called 'Smell Her' (working title) with my very good friend of 14 years, Anthony Rivers.

I do enjoy going out too. When I do hit the town, I can be found out and about with friends, in and around low key Soho, Fire in Vauxhall, the Royal Vauxhall Tavern on a Sunday afternoon or wherever trade is holding a party.

Also, I'm really into music. House music mainly but I love the classics too. Anything from the 70's, 80's, 90's and the 00's. The tunes themselves and the production of....!

Most weekends or whenever I get the chance, I end up recording mixes of my own featuring current house tracks and classic tunes from the golden days of house (1998 - 2006). I'll be honest, I'm no Bob Sinclair but hey, at least I can mix!

(The Mint, June 2008)

During my time with Fullers at a venue called The Mint (R.I.P), I was lucky enough to be able to put together a club night as part of the venues entry into a yearly project called Fullers Action Week.

I created and promoted a funky house night called:

(One Night Only Flyer)

based on many misspent Sunday mornings dancing in the famous Lite Lounge in the legandery afterhours club called trade

(trade @ Turnmills, 18th Birthday)

which was homed in the informous London club: Turnmills in Farringdon.

(Turnmills, March 2008)

One Night Only featured the DJ talent of trade's very own Fat Tony (Disco Jesus to his friends) and myself (Mackenzie to my friends, lol). Setting up the concept and the process of the night really fuled me to pen other nights and to continue to make mixes of my own, inspired by the tunes that I've enjoyed over the many years of attending trade.

Other than that, I enjoy learning about new things, people and cultures. Most things excite me intellectually but sometimes need to be in the mood to engage in a high spec conversation.

Apart from that, if you want to know anything else about me. Feel free to ask:
