There are very few DJs that can hold a candle to Agent 86. Fact. Sure. DMC champs may have the technical edge, but then how many incessant tweak scratch medleys can a crowd take before losing interest? Put simply, 86 knows how to fill the dancefloor. Yet he'll do it in such an obtuse way, you won't notice any obvious anthems. An underground cut here, a lost classic there, and before you know it, the floor is jam-packed. And he's not even breaking a sweat, yet.

In true block-party style, Agent 86 plays Hip-Hop, House, Techno, Rock, Electro, Pop, Breaks, Disco, New Wave, Funk, R&B, and just about anything and everything in-between and outside of the box. His extensive musical palette has led him to share the stage with the likes of James Brown, DJ Shadow, Moloko, Bookashade, Jeff Mills, Gangstarr, Soul II Soul, Peaches, and countless others.

A fixture on the Adelaide scene for several years, playing a mixture of tech and old school electro, 86 honed his deck skills and placed several times in the DMC and ITF mix competitions. After a move to Melbourne, he started turning heads on the urban scene, throwing down hip-hop and R&B with all the trimmings. But it wasnt long before he again demonstrated his versatility, starting long running electro-clash party Roxy, for several years. His DJ sets have been described as the stuff of legend, and at this moment in time he's busy playing no less than 5 nights per week, and squeezing some time in the studio to work on some upcoming releases.
