Known amongst his peers as the ‘DJs DJ’, SKisM gained notoriety as one of the busiest and most electrifying mixers on the circuit.

He has remixed chart topping Dubstep giants such as Excision and Datsik, as well as putting his inimitable production style on the vocal talents of UK rappers the Foreign Beggars and Envy. The seminal concept track ‘Experts’, which was accompanied by the video that infamously rocked the internet in 2012, continues to be referenced as his greatest musical contribution to the genre
