    Toby’s’ first sampler was a Roland s-50, bought in 1990 from Leytonstone; he started making techno/house hybrids, inspired by the sounds of Colin Dale and Faver. His first track played in public was on Colin Favers'' demo dat pressure '' section, and after that it all went a bit quiet as raving took precedence. DJing became more dominant at this stage, and parties at Art College, and collaborations with free party organizations led to a set at Glastonbury in 93. It was only when he moved to London in 95 that productions took shape again, the move from hardware to software in 2000 proved very fruitful, things started rolling and demos started flying out the door. After a few false starts, and near misses, the first contract came from Mr. Steve Kotey of Bear funk, although this took a year to come into fruition, during this time more material was sent out, and releases co-produced as Alexis Forge on Low Pressings.

    Around 2003 the first release came out on Bear funk, which was a remix for Akwaaba, as a bside to an unknown Norwegian called Todd Terje. From here, a steady flow of production has emerged from the white house studios, on Odori, Hi-phen, Urban Myth, Tiny Sticks and most recently for Rekids with an album lined up for early 2008. Toby’s first release on Rekids “A Close Shave” did remarkably well, and still is proving a success from London to New York and stopping all over Europe. It has also helped to fix his name on the remix map, as a slew of remixes for Bent, Brontosaurus, Greg Wilson, Future Force and others have come out over the last few months with more in the pipeline, and not forgetting his latest single on Rekids, “Daves Sex Bits” with a remix from Quiet Village. Also look out for the Mythical Beast project, which is a live collaboration with Foolish Felix, and is looking for release in the next couple of months too. DJing was the thing that started Toby off in this world, doing his own parties at art college back in the early 90s, its taken him on a long journey through all things deep, from house to disco and techno. His own night Latenightaudio in Shoreditch.its ethos is late night sounds encompassing disco, house, boogie and deeper late night experimentations!! It’s been running monthly for nearly a year now and has proven very successful, it has pulled down a wide range of big names from Radio Slave to Chicken Lips Stevie Kotey.
