I began producing electronic house music in 1996 using just a keyboard & computer after being influenced by the Nottingham deep house sound systems and my love of dancing.

After gaining a sound engineering diploma in 1999, I formed a duo named LUST4LUV with a co-producer, and we performed at the Solar Eclipse Lizard Music Festival.

My songwriting,vocal abilities & music theory knowledge developed alongside learning acoustic guitar in 2004. These melodies combined with my electronic roots leading to several electro-acoustic LUST4LUV albums. I released my solo electronica synth productions as RHAPSODYZE.

I have recorded 6 studio albums since 1996, which were compared to Kosheen, EBTG, Moloko, Bent & Orbital. Since 2009, I regularly perform in Nottingham & Cornwall venues, playing acoustic guitar.

I have also featured on vocal collaborations, remixes & radio with other artists from
Chicago, Belgium, Cambridge, Nottingham, St. Ives, Bristol & Cornwall.
