   About DJ Shorty / TRIFID Productions

Hello all and welcome to my SPACE!

Stuff about me.

Im based in South East London, UK. I've been DJ'ing now for over a decade. I play all sorts of music ranging between Hip-Hop, funk, breaks, house, drum n bass and anything else that sounds good!

I hold no prejudice with music, if its good, I will play it! I take the old skool mentality that the original hiphop DJs had which was to search out funky, rockin breaks from whatever sort of music.

I love to DJ! Playing music to others and rockin partys is my passion.

Around 1998, I saw a video of DJ QBert which introduced me to the world of turntablism. It totaly changed the way I look at decks! I invested in my first set of Technics Decks and scratch mixer and got practicing! Over the years, I have learned to incorporate the turntablism into my sets to keep the focus on the music, but still show the skills! I entered the UK DMC a few years back, making it to the London finals but got knocked out by DJ Skully. I feel better knowing he went on to win the UK title! I may enter again, but finding the time to put together a set on top of other obligations has held me back.

I play with a Jazz outfit kow as The Naked Sunday Collective (or N.S.C, check www.nsc-live.com) where we combine turntablism with live jazz & breaks. We played at Glastonbury 2005 which was incerdible!! Other highlights include warming up for Courtney Pine at the London Jazz Festival 2004. Things with NSC have been put on hold for a little while as Bev is taking time out whilst S'Ensha & Snare are doing BIG things with the Subsource project

Im looking to start up my own label - TRIFID PRODUCTIONS. The first 12" - 'Shake Ya Cellulite' feat MC Angel is available now on limitid white label or as a digital download from iTunes. A selection of TRIFID mixtapes, hosted by artists I have been working with, plus a whole bunch of remixes and promos. Influences include DJ Shadow - Love the style and technique. DJ Qbert - for changing not just my opinion on DJing but the worlds!! Beastie Boys - Love those guys! Scratch Perverts - Best UK Crew!

You can catch me every other Wednseday night on ForceFM 106.5 or forcefm.net. The show is all about HipHop. We do try and play everything but keeping the focus on homegrown UK talent. Since the start of the show in 2006, it has gone fro mstrength to stregth with a succession of quality acts passing through and blessing the set. All the shows as well as a bunch of mixtapes are available online from my podcast (Check the Blog!) If you arer interested in performing on the show, please hit me up and see what we can do! PEACE!!

Check out these video clips of my band, NSC at Glastonbury 2005. Headlined Friday night in the Jazz Lounge.
