Music has been a big part of Andy's life from day one, his dad was and still is a great guitar player and had an amazing reco rd collection spanning everything from jazz to heavy rock which he'd blast out most days of the week. Inspired by him, he's been co llecting records and DJing now for over 30 years. Originally from Durham, he moved to London 20 years ago and started a party with some fellow like - minded northerners called Bad Passion in East London which ran for 6 years. His musical output has seen him release on Labels such as Cynic, Futureboogie, Is It Balaeric and his own Not An Animal Imprint as part of Machete Savane, Bad Passion Project , AM edits and now Latrec.
