Starting from humble beginnings with friends in the rave scene and falling for the euphoric sounds of uplifting trance back in 2001; Justin has developed his fascination and love for electronic music ever since and has let his appreciation grow immensely. After purchasing his first record in December 2005 the tide quickly opened, as he purchased more and more tunes to satisfy his love for the music. Inspiration for his taste in electronic music has come from the likes of the highly energetic Yoji Biomehanika, trance legends Armin Van Buuren and Scot Project and UK anthem powerhouse, Dark by Design. His rise from zero to stardom has been nothing short of astounding, having only gathered his mixing skills in the start of 2006 with a few pointers from a good friend, DJ Machina. His ear for the music allowed his skill set to gather momentum exponentially, and within 5 months his talent showcase was recorded and distributed amongst the masses. Justin now plays regularly at Australia’s longest running dance club Bass Australia where he has supported such international and interstate names like Technoboy, Vinylgroover, Nick Sentience, DJ Dean, Brooklyn Bounce, Bexta and Archie. In addition to his residency, Justin has also featured at every other Melbourne club including Elevation, 3D, Bubble and PHD. Justin has since smashed it out at events such as Smile Police’s Element at Cage, Pharmacy Black After Party, Ultraworld and Sunshine People showcasing his style versatility and tight mixing.
