Band Bio: Whether boggling minds with live mash-ups, dropping jaws with turntable skills, or just letting another pearler from his heavyweight crate of beats do its job, DJ Moneyshot bare rocks the spot. He’s officially DJ Food’s favourite DJ, and his killer mix of straight-up club bangers, curveball oddities, Hip-Hop classics and Funky Break workouts have tickled dancefloors the world over, and won him other firm fans like Yoda, Huw Stephens and Andy Smith, as well as hordes of other big dog cats. In the studio his championship mixtape making skills have made this turntable tare-away a double threat. His award-winning efforts for Ninja Tune’s epic Solid Steel radio shows, XFM, BBC 1, 6Music and 1 Xtra have become the stuff of legend. Whether they push unearthed Rock gems like his Mother’s Ruin set, Broadway musicals like Showtune Dummies!! Beastie Boy sample sources like Check Your Head, or a wild variety of dancefloor Funk and Hip-Hop like The Dischandler, each one has helped Moneyshot develop a strong following in club nights and inboxes worldwide. In 2008, as part of Ninja Tune’s 20th Anniversary celebrations, he was asked to join the official ranks of the Solid Steel. DJ crew as part of the next generation of genre-smashing club DJs set to take over the globe. The tail end of 2009 saw Moneyshot hitting the studio again, this time turning his hand to making his own tracks. The foul Funk he spins and mixes reeks out in his new beats.
