He was a founding member of the group 808 State, contributing to their debut LP Newbuild (1988) and hit single "Pacific State" (1989). He also achieved solo success with his 1988 hit single "Voodoo Ray", which became a touchstone of Manchester's club and warehouse scene. He now travels the globe from Berlin to Detroit, Berghain to the Sydney opera house and every underground spot in between. He’ll be taking to the booth in Southampton at the Summer sizzla. This is one not to be missed.
