His  ability to vary his sets to suit any moment coupled with a sleek musical style, have seen him being branded as a “new breed of Hed Kandi DJs” by A&R Director of Hed Kandi, Phil Faversham.

On the production front, his remixing work for Gay McCall’s ‘I’m Alright’ on Born To Dance Records clinched the number 1 spot on DMC Buzz, and reached number 2 on Music Week Club in 2006. Carl has also remixed for one of U.K.’s top underground soulful house labels, Duffnote, with his take on ‘Take Me To The Disco’ by Heavy DC, receiving rave reviews.
