Edd is as at home mixing a full on house and trance set as he is in the middle of a 60s, 70s or 80s set. Having worked all across the globe at various clubs and venues and with almost 1,000 events under his belt he has pretty much come across it all. Having supported top name DJs, most recently High Contrast & Eric Pridj, and having warmed up for top DJs (Armin Van Buuren, SASH!, Judge Jules, Danny Rampling & Scott Mills) and done sets in some of Europe's best nightclubs (Cleopatra, Autodromo, Paradiso, The Castle, Cafe del Mar, Pacha (Amnesia)) he has proven that he can mix with the best of them. Repeat bookings prove that he always pleases his crowd. Edd has been djing since he was 17 years old. He started by mixing tapes for friends and soon became hooked. The Mobile Nightclub was born in 1996.  In the Summer of 1996 he started working at Hy's nightclub in Tombland, Norwich, doing warm up sets and djing the Student nights. He then started regularly djing the Boswells after parties, playing 60s, 70s and 80s. By
the end of 1996 he had bought his 1st sound system, and some basic lightings. As contacts grew more work came along, djing at Concept nightclub, Tusk, One and Only, Louis Marchasi, Bar 7, Mojo, Metro, The Royal, the Talk, Ritzi's, 5th Avenue and various other venues around East Anglia.   In 1998, after doing some holiday cover work for another local DJ in Luminar Leisure nightclub Chicago Rock Norwich, Edd was offered Head DJ position at a brand new nightclub in Norwich called 'Liquid nightclub'. He proceeded to DJ on the opening night with a massive sell out crowd! Edd became a supply DJ for Luminar Leisure, heading round the country last minute to cover when resident DJs were on holiday or off sick. Edd then stepped up to DJ on the opening night at Brannigans on riverside and was given a residency in Ipswich which continued through to the Autumn. Then came the kids parties… Edd was asked by Pizza One, Pancakes Too, a sister company of Hy's nightclub, to do kids parties every afternoon. This continued for several years whilst Edd was doing his degree at the University of East Anglia, and the free pizzas kept him from starving! Student loans enabled Edd to buy a more powerful and suitable sound system and some more lighting, and the money earnt was used to pay for university tuition fees! Word ofmouth bought in more discos and the money earnt was reinvested in new equipment. Within a short while the disco was starting to look the part and was forming a firm reputation. Sets at Concept nightclub and Bar 7 coupled with a increased amount of weddings and 21st birthday bookings meant that Edd moved to concentrate on the disco and started to build up some regular clients.
In February 2004 he was offered the DJ residency at
Optic Nightclub and proceeded to DJ Thursday, Friday, Saturday for several of years, but often slipping in the odd wedding here and there! As well as the club scene Edd also started doing radio work with a regular Friday night slot on Radio Livewire and the odd 'Mix Dr' set on 'Vibe FM' working with Crazy Kev, Trailor Boy. He also had the chance to DJ with Radio 1's Scott Mills with Chappers & Dave on two occasions. More recently Edd has been involved in 'Park Radio', a new test FM radio station covering south Norfolk; he had a 4 hour uninterrupted Friday Night Dance request show which he mixed live on air. Park have just applied for a 5 year FM licence and Edd hopes to become a permanent fixture on the Friday night billboard!     Also in the Summer of 2004 he travelled down to Italy where hewas able to DJand MC at several clubs, mc to a sell out crowd at Autodromo, but the highlight of which was DJing to more than 5,000 people on the Summer season's opening night at Cleopatra nightclub in Southern Italy.
2009 saw the first nights in Iran, MC and Drum and Bass nights with the likes of High Contrast, hard house nights, in 2010 Edd has taken up 2 monthly residencies in Cyprus (on Mackenzie Beach front Larnaca and in Ayia Napa) playing funky house, house, dance and progressive Trance.
Edd is very much into his funky house, dance and trance music, but also enjoys playing commercial RnB and whatever else is required to get the crowd or party going. His collection spans from the 1940s to the present day and beyond as he always keeps up to date with pre-release music and is on several record mailing lists. He requests that people send through a list of their favorite tracks before any event so that he can ensure that he has them on the night. He doesn't have any set list of music that he plays every night and he trys to base what he plays on requests and what the crowd as a whole will dance to.
Edd has a wide and varied range of music suitable for most tastes. Be it an Ibiza themed night, a funky flared 70's soul party or a cheesy 80's disco night. With over 10 years experience with well over 900 events and more than 300 weddings under his belt, and regular quality venues returning to him for repeat bookings, his excellent reputation is one you can be sure you can rely on.
