DJ SOS first fell in love with mixing at the tender age of 18. He began to experiment with his sister’s rare groove vinyls and soon went on to make his mark in the old school garage scene. He would play at house parties, various community radio stations and occasionally in night clubs. SOS has played sets at numerous clubs in and around London such as Ministry of Sound, Rainforest Cafe, Herbal and Strawberry Moon to name a few. He also held residencies at Ruby Lo, Z Bar and Stanza.

SOS collaborated with a number of up and coming MC’s in the 90’s where he would mix and blend sick instrumentals for live radio sets. In the beginning of 2000 SOS joined a Garage collective called ‘2 Good 2B True Crew’. His position in the crew helped him to strengthen his skills and become the DJ he is today.

SOS also has an eclectic taste in music and has outstanding mixing abilities in R’n’B and Hip Hop. Although SOS expresses a sincere passion for Funky House which he currently plays the most he will still venture into different genres and continues not limit himself.
