Bio
DJ Aphrodite has been a mainstay of the Worldwide Rave scene since the early ninties. For each country around the world with a Drum & Bass scenes, DJ Aphrodite has produced anthems. Ganja Man, King Of The Beats, Style From The Darkside, All Over Me, Summer Breeze, Dub Moods and Stalker from the infamous record shop scene in movie Human Traffic, Mash Up You Know, Booyaa and We Enter, to name just a few solo compositions have all graced Junglist and DnB playlists everywhere.
Starting with Urban Shakedown and together producing the huge rave anthem Some Justice Aphrodite became a prolific producer being an integral part of creating a string of Jungle and Drum & Bass Classics of which more than a dozen had the UK and European mainstream chart success. Throughout the millennium Aphrodites Artist and DJ Mix albums notched up half a million sales worldwide and his popularity as one of the worlds Drum & Bass icons was forged with consistent performances and now delivering multiple 4-deck mixing to all crowds be them 30,000 or 300 strong. Aphrodites travels as one of the worlds favorite Jungle and DNB artists, playing a mix of exclusives, special versions, new releases, DJ promos and self-indulgent classics has seen him perform all over the United Kingdom, Europe, North and South America, Asia, Africa and Australasia.
From the mid-nineties, Aphrodites use of stripped-back, high-energy bass and beats, well-chosen hip-hop and reggae samples in all the productions hes part of has made him one of the founding fathers of jump-up Drum & Bass. Aphrodite Recordings and his partnered labels Urban Shakedown and Urban Takeover alongside his production partner, DJ legend Micky Finn, have helped plant the roots of a style which still dominates the landscape of Drum & Bass around the world. Aphrodites irresistible blend of rolling beats and heavy danceable baselines, have made him a remixer of choice for artists of all stature and genres. NWA, A Tribe Called Quest, Beverley Knight, Freestylers, Afrika Bambaataa, Nine Inch Nails, East 17, Simon Bassline, Alibi, Smoke City, Moloko, Biga Ranx, Meredith Brooks, Mary J Blige, Jem, NG3, Vangelis, Congo Natty, Holly Valance have all benefited from a tear-out Aphrodite remixes.
