DJ Bold first began DJing, back in 1992, after many late night club sessions, bugging out to the sounds of the infamous DJ HMC at the original Juice Records all night parties, held in South Australia.

Inspired to look further the music, producing soon became a focal point. As his DJ Sets continued to develop and gain a certain distincive style so to did his work in the studio.

Astrin of vinyl and CD releases between 1996 and 2003 saw DJ Bold gain international respect as a producer as well as a DJ. Starting his own label - Vast Recordings was the first natural step for Bold and the label was founded with his first two vinyl releases - Mission 8 ep and Turntable Phonetix.

The first major breakthrough came with inclusion in DJ charts from Germany's widely acclaimed DJ Hell. At the same time, Dave Clark on his Radio One essential mix and DJ Rush (two of the biggest names in techno) - could be heard playing DJ Bold records all over the clubs of Europe.

Other production highlights for Bold include vinyl releases for Rush's labels High Octane and Kne'Deep based in Chicago and Berlin. Other releases followed on Australia's renowned Dirty House Records, Bold's own label Vast Recordings and the new Australien label making big waves overseas and locally - Thrillseekers Australia.

On one of Ben Sims' visit to Australia he was so impressed by Bold live PA, he invited him to record for his labels and a release on Symbolism was born. Described by Ben Sims as "an ep of raw talent", Bold Manoeuvres (released late in 2002) rocked clubs and radio stations worldwide.
Bold tracks have also appeared in the play lists and charts of DJs like Dave Clarke, Laurent Garnier, Richie Hawtin, Jeff Mills, Ben Sims, DJ Hell, DJ Emerson, Paul Mac, Inigo Kennedy, Space DJZ, Francis Kevorkian, Cristian Varela, Claude Young and HMC.

Now regarded as Australia's best 3-turntable DJ his DJ highlights include DJ Sets in Chicago, New York, at the Berlin Love Parade (98 and 99), Metropolis in Bulgaria, We Want More Of DiZ IV, Denmark, SO36 Electric Ballroom (Berlin) and Dubmission at Matrix Club (Berlin), Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane. Bold has also appeared on Australia's national radio show "The Club" on JJJ with a 2 hour DJ Set and 1 hour live PA.

Now joining the Kne'Deep family Bold has left Australia and gained a resident permit to live in Berlin. 2004 sees Bold getting ready to rock the Butan Club in Wuppertal, Metronome in Berlin and hearding to Spain to play in Madrid in summer.
The Bold live PA is an infectious, atmospheric groove which has been whipping dancelfoors into a frenzy! Experience it for yourself and see why it further enchances Bold's reputation as one of technos future players.
