Silverback the DJ

Ranked #17,028 in Music, #496,627 overall

I am a DJ local to Sheffield but will play anywhere

I play breaks, broken beat, nujazz, nusoul, jungle, downtempo, ska, reggae and a whole lot more in both light, melodic as well as dark dirty nasty dance music

If you need a DJ talk to me - if I can't play it I probably know someone who can 

the dirtiest man in breaks

the best known beard in sheffield

aromatiq was just one of the nights I was involved with - indeed originated - the very best and most imaginative in broken beat, nujazz, nusoul, downtempo, melodic house, liquid and the like

I was also resident, promoter and general father to the very successful night Spannered - voted no10 in the land by DJ mag - here I promoted the mix of breaks, techno and fractured/leftfield beats that was its trademark

I also had an involvement with Technoir - premier dark dirty nasty dance music night in Sheffield, associated with Barry Gilbey and ChooChoo records as well as Mixmag

I have held residencies @ .zero (now Plug) with the night Shush, Charles Street with the original Spannered, the Earl (voted Mixmag's no1 DJ bar) with Spannered, Aromatiq and more
I have played a number of festivals and countless other bars, clubs, parties etc.
We have a number of new projects coming up - we hope to be creating new nights involving dark house, dubstep and breaks as well as a more chilled event based around the aromatiq formula

I am also involved with local community radio - vice-chair of Burngreave Community Radio and have recently finished a season on Sheffield live, check out the aromatiq podcasts.
