Complete overhaul of my soundcloud is in progress right now, I am going to be removing many of my old mixes (keeping the most listened for you guys) and will upload those in continuous mixes possibly on MixCloud.
At the moment I have been working on fine tuning my remixes as well as starting a 3 yr Degree Course in Music Production, so due to being so busy, I have not being active here for a while as well as not being able to keep my pro account active.
---------- ----------
Born in South Africa, Cape Town and moving to the UK when I was 7 years old, I have been trying to establish myself as a Dubstep Remix Artist /DJ as well as being a 17 yrs Experienced Drummer, Singer, Songwriter, Programmer and Graphic Designer.
My appreciation for music came at a very early age of around 3 years old due to being in a totally musical environment, I then developed a keen sense for rhythm and song structure over the next 20 years through drumming, honing my skills within songwriting together with my best friend, Nick Thom.
Now 25 years of age, I have spent the last few years improving on a newly found passion for DJ Mixing and Electronic Music Creation, varying in a vast amount of different styles including Deep Dubstep, Psystep, Reggae Drum & Bass, Heavy Bass Dubstep, Ambient Jazz Crossover Dub & Reggae Dub all with a Reggae Vibe core. .
Family influence was my biggest inspiration in literally all music related achievement - one of them being completing a BTEC National Diploma in Music in 2011 after having to move during my first course in the second year and having to redo the whole course!
My Father 'Greg Glover' was a seasoned cover artist during the late 70's-80's & 90's, playing music from bands such as Toto, Journey, Crowded House & other pop rock bands and was instrumental in backing me all the way.
Rikki Glover (Brother) was also another big part of my life in music, developing himself as a Lead Rock /Indie Guitarist, now turned professional, he is playing throughout a huge majority of London via Session work, Guitar Lessons etc and plays frequently with the awesomely energetic Rock /Blues band 'Jim Stapley' :
