Music career

In 2006 he began pursuing a parallel career in music and started making music with the record producer Andy Whitmore.[2] Collaboration with Martin 101 followed, then a club track with Smokin' Jo[3][not in citation given] and Pete Gleadhall (Pet Shop Boys) called "Strip Down (Nude)", and several tracks fronting Ichi Ni San with Harj and Kriss Darang.

Around this time he also co-created the London club-night 'Drama'[4][not in citation given] with Terry Hart. The original club ran for over four years at various venues including Ministry of Sound, The Cross, Browns, The Eve Club, as well as Space in Ibiza.
