Born and raised in Leicester, he soon discovered a talent for the production of electronic dance music (particularly dubstep) and released his first EP, Blue, on 14 February 2011 while studying at Leeds University. He is co-owner of Inspected Records[1] and, as of September 2016, has released four EPs (Blue, Graduation, Fire Inside, and Mercury) with the label.
