Biog:
Hi, I am the Candyman - (Steve). I was never interested in music while I was growing up, in fact I hated it. The only music I liked was some of the tunez from my trusty old Commodore 64. Then one day when I was about 13-14 I ventured round a new friends house and heard a tape of a live rave… Things have never been the same since that day. I have been completely obsessed by that fast break beat sound!

For the last 15 years or so I have been to raves, clubs and private venues following the fast pace of hard music. I have even produced my own remixes and tunez to try and quench my thurst for more and have a huge collection of over 18,000 tunez on vinyl, cd, and tape. (mostly on cd).

I got my 1st set of decks when was 20 after a local club closed down and I picked up a nice old celestion set. I used these for a few years untill my attention was taken to Hard House and anything Tidy. As it was almost impossible for me to get some of the tunez I wanted on vinyl and thought that vinyl had seen better days I got myself a home mix cd deck. This I found much more fun to use as it had more control and I could now mix all my fav’ tunez off cd.

So here we are today… Still obsessed with hard tunez… Still building my own tunez… Still collecting more tunez… and Still f'kin’ bonkerz!!!
