Craig started DJing at the end of the 1980s when the first building blocks of house music were being formed and has seen at first hand how it has evolved and segmented.

“The first parties I ever went to were at a legendary club in England called The Eclipse. In those days there was little or no definition between different styles of dance music. DJs like Sasha, Carl Cox and Grooverider, all now pioneers of their own styles of dance music, would play together on the same stage and although they definitely had their own unique sound they were playing more or less the same records.”

Craig played for the Eviction Sound System in the early 1990s (an offshoot of the Exodus Sound System who put on large free open-air events and warehouse parties all over North London) and co-organized the regular club nights in the Underground club in Luton, nr. North London in 1995.

After he arrived in the Czech Republic in 1996 he has been a regular feature on the Czech House scene and has held residencies in clubs in Olomouc (Depo 8) and in Brno (Mescalito), and after moving to Prague in 1998 he has been resident in many clubs including Radost FX (twice voted one of the best clubs in the world by UK Ministry magazine), Palac Akropolis (Bikini Jazz), and Chateau Rouge (Joy Jelly). Craig held a DJ residency at SaSaZu for ten years.

Craig has had radio, TV and magazine interviews in the UK (Worldwide FM), the Czech Republic (Clubmix, Kiss FM, Houser, Think, Rave etc.), Bulgaria (Radio Darik), and in Lithuania (Radio M1, TV3 etc.) where he has top billed at events in the capital Vilnius and Lithuania’s second city, Kaunas. In addition, a successful visit to Geneva, Switzerland saw Craig headlining at, among other locations, Club Liquid.

A tour of France saw Craig working the crowds in clubs in Toulouse, and playing back-to-back with DJ Ron Watts in Marseille. Craig was a main feature of the House of Summer Festival in Gerlitz, Germany that was headlined by Love Parade legend Dr. Motte. Other career highlights include headlining the house stage at Atomic Jam held in the Incheba hall, Bratislava, Slovakia, and playing alongside Inland Knights (Drop Music), Tom Parris (Low Pressings), Souldoubt (DiY), Paul Edge (UK), DJ Paco (Open House Paris), Johan Bacto (S), Thomsvast (USA), Jeff K (Music Families Paris), DJ Brent (Amsterdam), DJ Hugo (Norway), DJ Christopher (Switzerland), Lee Dagger (aka Bimbo Jones), and Plague 83 (Switzerland).

Craig has been seen in Bulgaria playing at the chic Chervilo club in Sofia and headlining the Open Air Spectacle in Bulgaria’s second city of Plovdiv. Craig had the honor of being invited to appear on MTV for their program Dance Floor Charts that was broadcast in 38 countries across Europe, The Middle East and Africa. The main DJ for this program was German DJ and producer Ian Pooley. Last but not least, Craig played on the Prague leg of the Slinky World Tour alongside head honcho Dave Lea and top Slinky resident Tim Lyall.
