The dancer: Coming from the rougher end of Manchester, where there werent any aspirations to do anything, Cameron was introduced to BBoy'ing as far back as 1980 whereby he was part of the infamous Street Machine crew with his pal Jason Orange of ‘Take That.’ Cameron progressed from the streets and went on to win the UK breakdance championships with his now infamous friend and highly respected dancer Benji Read.
The Club DJ: In 1988, Cameron cut his teeth playing in Spain and it was there he perfected his technical ability. Spain led to Ibiza where he managed to secure a residency. In the UK, Cameron found it hard to get the amount of gigs that he wanted as he never pushed venues
or sent out demos. He also had his hands full by being part of Bizarre Inc (Playing with Knives / I'm Gonna Get you / Such a feeling etc!), 2Much (So Strong - Championed by Sasha), Vertigo and many more.
The Producer: Production definitely took a front seat for a while, Cameron has written and produced his own material for many years, and has historically released through Flawless Records: Warner Bros;
BMG; and Bush to name a few. All tracks contain that funky element,a live bass, with the tech coming in the form of synths: they are certainly proper dance floor material, and come under the banner of
peak-time set. Cameron also provides music for the film / TV and commercial underscore market through Sony BMG......
The Radio DJ: Kiss102 Cameron worked late Saturday night – early Sunday morning for a period of 2 years with Kiss. Kiss 102 won several awards including one for its coverage of social issues and is acknowledged by writers like Dave Haslam and commentators such as Tony Wilson. Cameron was commissioned by Radio 1 to do a 4 hour annual special, this he continued to do for 6 years. Cameron drew some of the biggest names
for interview; he also received promo copies from
some of the biggest names in dance music even
before Pete Tong…. Says it all really!
