New Mix: Guest Mix @ The Funhouse

I recently visited hip hop broadcasting collective The Funhouse in London to play a guest set alongside host, Chris P Cuts. The set is predominantly hip hop and beats with a few footwork and jungle tunes thrown in for good measure!

Please note that in my intro Chris kindly refers to me as a DMC champion, but in fact though I've won DMC regionals (Midlands in 2011 and London in 2012), I've not yet won a national title. Hopefully that will change soon though!​
