about.

'Ruff Rugged ... ?'

... a signature style of full volume live sampling, mixing, re-mixing and freestyle DJ art, originally inspired by JOHNSON D's, Reggae Jungle, Drum & Bass & Dance Hall origins, more than 20 years ago, in the underground UK club scene ... applied now to alternative styles, creating progressive, constantly moving journey's, for the listener ... for party, car or just background whilst doing the house chores ... TURN UP THE MUSIC :)

ALL 'RUFF RUGGED' themed productions are :
Mixed & Recorded Live - Free Styled, with NO Rehearsal or Preparation - Performed in ONE take in Real Time - Digging in the crates on the fly!
ANY & ALL imperfections and anomalies (pops, crackles, errors), remain to support the original character and flavour of the genre, and to guarantee an organic (live club feel), experience for the listener, and in remaining true to the DJ arts - No Cheats / No Edits / No Post Production - That's the Ruff Rugged Promise :)
