In 1999, Freaky Flow released his first DJ mix CD, entitled Obscene Underground – Volume 1: Freaky Flow (often referred to as "Tits", due to the album artwork, which bears this word on the front of it ), which has sold over 20,000 units in Canada (and was not widely released outside of Canada).

In 2001, Freaky Flow was signed to Moonshine Music. That same year, he released his first mix CD outside of Canada, entitled World Domination.

The album was entitled Smell The Glove. Freaky Flow served as Executive Producer.

In 2009, Freaky Flow released the mix album The Furious Factor on New York's Moist Music, as a joint-venture with Furious Records. This album was a retrospective mix compilation made up entirely of notable releases on Toronto-based drum and bass label, Furious Records.

In 2011, Freaky Flow continued his Volume mix series (the last of which was Volume 008, several years earlier), with two new mixes, Volume 009 and Volume 010, both given away free online.

Grey has also been known to include music from other genres in his DJ sets, ranging from Fleetwood Mac to Don Henley. He is the owner of Freaky Flow Recordings (a division of Freaky Flow Entertainment Group), the record label that released the Canadian electronic music group, The Heavy Petters (often billed as "Freaky Flow Presents: The Heavy Petters").
