Glen started to play records and spin them on some old decks at a very young age of 14 back in 1993. He started by playing early breakbeat/hardcore and swiftly moving forward in the direction of techno/acid until finding Goa Trance a couple of years later at the now legendary Return to the Source parties in London. Around this time he joined up with two other aspiring DJ’s that he’d met at college and had become great friends with. Together they formed the local party group ‘Psyquarius’, free parties around their local town (which is 1 hour from London) for friends and travellers.
Around this time (1996), while playing alongside Chris Organic, Glen was spotted by Matt (founder of Omnipotent Eye party org). He asked Glen to play at the legendary Tyssen Street Studios where he became the resident ‘Skybabies’ DJ, hosting label nights with Dragonfly, Twisted, Aurinko, Resonoise and the now defunct Symbiosis Records to crowds of 1000+. Glen now lived and worked in London.
About 3 years later after playing at all sorts of parties, from small private nights to massive warehouses or open air gigs, UK and overseas, Glen joined the London based trance label, Resonoise Records as part of the DJ/A&R team. Over this time his style had matured from Goa/Psy to a progressive psychedelic sound. But where after a couple of years his various residencies in London continued sadly the record label did not.
Between 2002 and 2005 his style merged the groovy psy sounds of progressive trance, such as that coming out of Sweden and Denmark, with the tribal sounds of house. His current direction is to merge and blur the lines between house and trance. His journeys through music and country have had him play alongside some of the top psychedelic and progressive artists, from Slide (Coburn) to Son Kite, Koxbox to Tim Schudlt, Green Nuns, Jaia, Liquid Soul, Behind Blue Eyes, Phony Orphants and Igneous Sauria to name a few. From DJ’s like James Monroe, Dino, Paps, Anti, Emok, Richard K, Pied Piper, Peter Dijital, Banel, Sally Doolally, Nadi, Bakke, Dick Trevor, Franke, Pena, Noma, Greg Coyle etc, etc and so on.
Now Glen is also part of the DJ team of Denmark’s Iboga Records. As well as DJ, he will promote the sound and ideas of the label, and help to work with other labels to source out the Iboga sound. Also now living in Gothenburg, you can catch him playing around Sweden and Europes progressive hot spots.
