Mosus

Mosus had a great childhood,growing up in dunedin with an eclectic

musical background, his mother a punk guitarist and father an avid

vinyl collector introduced him to the futurist sounds of brian eno,

david bowie, jimi hendrix, devo, sexpistols, bob marley and

everything in between. Mosus was gripped by the vinyl bug and at the

tender age of 12 his father gave him his first belt driven turntable

complete with built in speaker and cabinet. From then Mosus hustled

his hard earned cash on hiphop records and at 15 got his first set of

technics 1200 turntables and a mixer.  He gained a reputation as a

skooled up hiphop dj until he came across some jungle records in a

second hand record bin - from this point on Mosus carved out a name

for himself on student radio stations in the South Island of New

Zealand where he was brought up.

These early experiences on the radio earnt him bookings at events

across NZ - it was these small parties which quickly got him noticed

and it wasn't long before a young Mosus was in demand from top

promoters across the country. As the years went by Mosus continued to

push the sounds of dnb with regular radio shows, dnb club nights and

tours across NZ and Australia. Touring with the likes of Shy fx,

Bailey, Dillinja & Lemon d,Krust, Die and Bryan G as well as djing

alongside every international name to come to NZ  it wasn't long b4

Mosus felt it was time to leave NZ.

In 2003, with an invaluable chunk of experience under his belt,

Mosus made the move to London where he teamed up with Bryan G from

vrecordings - one of the most respected drum & bass djs and labels.

Mosus' responsibility within this label has increased rapidly, taking

on a full time position and solidifying his position in the dnb

industry.

Currently Mosus hosts the Chronic Records radio show on Origin fm

952 [ a weekly show on monday night's underground Drum & Bass station

where he has a massive fan base and is one of the stations hottest

new djs. He also has monthly shows on Pyrotechnic radio, Life fm as

well as producing Bryan G's weekly "Sound of Movement  radio show" on

Ministry of Sound internet radio, which has made him available for

the odd guest show on the station.

Already in 2005 Mosus has had 3 12inch vinyl releases on Subtronix,

with future releases forthcoming on Trace's dsc14. With a host of A

list djs spinning Mosus' material his career has been boosted to new

levels with a highly sought after residency at the legendary Thursday

night Bar Rumba session at the premier club Movement,as a part of the

new Producers night. Djing alongside other well known new artists

such as Utah Jazz, Raf Illogic, Breakage etc.

As for the future, Mosus' burgeoning international status will keep

growing with forthcoming dates all over the uk.
