BAFTA & Ivor Novello Award Winner (2003), producer, media composer and DJ, started his career over three decades ago in the late ’80s. He cut his teeth making Hardcore as it was then known. Released his first record in 1992, Ruffneck Bizznizz on Ruff Quality Recordings. Started his own label King of the Jungle Records in 1993 alongside Rude Boy Keith, where they enjoyed much success, flying around the globe as a DJ and PA-ing. Dextrous has performed in countries such as Austria, USA, Canada, Belgium, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Holland, Italy, Ireland, Latvia, Switzerland and Sardinia. Dextrous started Subversive Recordings and State of the Art Recordings in 1994 as vehicles to explore alternative avenues of creativity. He still remains heavily involved in composing music and productions for library companies which feature on adverts and many TV programmes. He has also recorded under many other pseudonyms covering other genres, one being Transcendent Minds with recordings on Broken Beats label Karma Giraffe, highlighting his musical versatility. With his wealth of experience, Dextrous was a great choice for scoring the BAFTA-winning Feltham Sings documentary shown on Channel 4 in 2002. With his musical background and a passion for working with young people, undertaking this project made perfect sense. He won an Ivor Novello Award and an RTS Award nomination for his efforts.
