Some know him as ‘This Is Tomorrow’, others as ‘Blueprint’, others as ‘that dude with the blog with all the 45s on it’. Either way, Mike is a super nice guy who makes great beats and rarely shouts about it (at least not as much as he should!). ‘After Midnight’ is his latest beat tape / album, available via Bandcamp for a very reasonable sum of money (especially given the countless free downloads he’s put out over the years).

A collector of hip hop, funk, soul, boogie and related beats and jazz based music since the late eighties. Came to prominence as a club DJ through involvement in Substance (one of the UK's largest and longest running hip hop and funk nights) and a 2 year spell as mix DJ on BBC Radio 1Xtra. In recent years a steady output of high profile mix albums has allowed me to DJ worldwide. Currently compiling a series of mix albums for the BBE label and producing an album for BBC New Urban Music Bursary award winning 7 piece jazz / soul outfit 'Maylight'.
