Mr Scruff, a British DJ, found his passion for music at a young
age. As a twelve-year-old, he was captivated by the Street Sounds
Electro series and the art of mixing. Initially, he didn't fully
comprehend the intricacies of DJing, but as he tried it himself, he
realized the complexity involved. Despite being isolated in his
musical interests, he delved into the world of radio and magazines,
discovering the deep and vibrant culture of DJing. Motivated by his
love for the music, he decided to give it a go, starting out with
no equipment or knowledge. However, his youthful inventiveness and
abundance of free time allowed him to slowly grasp the craft.
During this time, Mr Scruff enjoyed a variety of music, from pop to
the eclectic sounds of John Peel and Tony Blackburn. With limited
radio stations available in the 80s, he embraced whatever the
airwaves had to offer. Eventually, he stumbled upon specialist
music through a friend's uncle who possessed all the Electro
albums. This led him to dive deeper into the world of DJing, never
looking back. How to DJ is a Listening Dog Media production. Learn
