Originally from a house background, Adam initially made his mark by throwing in elements of hip-hop and electro into his deep house sets. He now tears up dancefloors across the globe using three turntables, samplers and effects units, mixing up his own blend of futuristic breakbeats taking influences from Techno and Drum & Bass with any variety of global influences that take his fancy.
Having made his DJ debut on the Club scene in London in 1992, it was not until 1996 with the release of his first mix compilation 'Coastal Breaks' (a 32 track double disc epic journey) that Adam's talent was officially recognized by the media. Launching Adam onto the international scene, Adam was soon to be playing frequently in the United States and around Europe as well as all over Britain.

By 1997 Adam was a well-respected part of the global circuit of DJ's receiving strong support from talents such as Carl Cox, The Chemical Brothers, Sasha, John Digweed and Andy Weatherall. He played several dates on Carl Cox's Fact 2 world tour and travelled to the US on 8 separate occasions in the year. Meanwhile back home, the club 'Friction' he set up with friend Rennie Pilgrim and Tayo at Bar Rumba in the heart of Soho London was quickly attaining cult status as every party brought queues around the block. Later that year he recorded a single with friend Kevin Beber as 'Tsunami One' which received full support from the press and was to become a landmark record of the time on the dancefloor. The success of which has seen Tsunami One in demand for remixes by the likes of The Orb, DeeJay PunkRoc, The Headrillaz and Junior Boys own.

1998, Adam starts the year touring Australia with DJ Krush, Pressure Drop and Jose Padilla before returning to release his second Coastal Breaks compilation this time with React Records. The press exploded, 'Coastal Breaks 2' received Album of the month reviews in several leading dance magazines.

The media crowned him king of 'Nu Skool Breaks', a tag that he and Rennie had invented but like any artist Adam was keen not to limit himself to the term. Featured in ID (DJ of the Month), Muzik, Mixmag, DJ Mag amongst many of others. By the time the album hit the streets at number 9 in the dance sales chart, one place behind Massive Attack, Adam was off on his world tour which took him just about every where on the planet - an epic 3 month escapade which cemented Adam's reputation on a global level. By the time Adam returned from his tour, DJ magazine saw the time fit to feature Adam on their front cover, with a CD mix on the front and a six page article inside.

Meanwhile amongst the madness Adam has found time to set up his own label 'Marine Parade' (named after the street he had just moved to in Brighton). Following the Coastal Breaks and Tectonics records, Adam is gearing up to drop his most innovative and exciting excursion in breaks with his 'On Tour' album, alongside which he'll be promoting the album up and down the country in some quality venues. All this, and he has found himself with a Friday and Saturday night residency at Fabric just to add to an increasingly hectic itinerary.

If devotion to his music and youthful exuberance are anything to go by, Adam fully deserves his place as No.1DJ in the world as voted for by readers of Worldpop.com, and can expect to find himself firmly placed there for some time to come.

Known for his turntablist antics (including breakbeats, scratching, juggling, and destroying LPs and vinyl without ever losing the beat), Swamp can turn a a simple dj show into something more than words can describe. In concert he's been known to cut himself with shards of shattered vinyl records, scratch a diamond-tipped phonograph needle across his tongue and blow fire, occasionally with calamitous results. "I had to go to the hospital in Phoenix recently with second-degree burns," Swamp said from his publicist's office in New York. "I lit my hand on fire and then blew fire on it and basically became a blow torch. I don't use fire retardant or anything because this is low budget. Dude, I'm just a fire retard."

As a solo artist and DJ, Swamp, who recently issued his debut hip-hop disc, Never Is Now, is even more dynamic. Onstage, huddled between a pair of turntables, his unkempt long hair, black polished fingernails and aggressive antics make Swamp look more like a death metal dude than a DJ. And with his wild eyes, perpetual scowl and scraggly beard and moustache, he could easily take home a Severed Head trophy in a Charles Manson lookalike contest. And that's just fine with him." Being sinister is kind of the common thread to everything I do," he said. "There's a lot of different styles, but it's all about the creepy music and the phat beats. I'm probably the hip-hop equivalent to Rob Zombie." Like Zombie's latest, Never Is Now is filled with dramatic rhythms, chilling moods, disturbing sound bites and apocalyptic imagery. The single "Ring of Fire" begins with a creepy organ scale redolent of gothic horror films before latching into some eerie keyboard patches, old-school hip-hop beats and hard rapping.

Swamp will wreak havoc on tour with Tomahawk through the end of the year.

Also, Swamp has appeared in the pages of Rolling Stone, Spin, Subculture, Raygun, Mean, DJ Times, Keyboard, Rap Sheet,DJ Times, Mixer, Rap Pages, The LA Times, and Urb. Urb magazine says "Witnessing Swamp torture the 1200's is like watching a magic show".
