After being begrudgingly dragged along by a his school mates to an underground
\nJungle & Hardcore club called \u201cGravity\u201d back in 1996, fake ID in hand and witnessing
\nthe amazing resident DJ Menis on the decks, Olly was inspired and hooked. Having
\nbeen staunchly into Rap music only since 1988, this was a strange but welcome
\nchange in perspective, the ethos of PLUR and the energetic vibe felt like home..
\nAfter realising his interest he began the process of hassling his best mate from
\nprimary school, Rob (Boy-D) who was already a great deejay and had 2 x 1200\u2019s in
\nhis bedroom, he jumped on at every opportunity. Much to the frustration of Rob
\nhaving to listen to all the train wrecks haha! To save the friendship, he scraped up
\nenough cash to buy 2 omnitronic decks and a 2 channel numark mixer & started
\nlearning to mix in his bedroom in the summer of 1997.<\/p>\n

He got his first club booking in 1999 at a club night called Euphoria (XS Promotions\/
\nDJ Freestyle) back in Perth, Western Australia and launched his own Promotion
\ncompany called Ruff Knite Productions along with best mate Hilton Shaw (Magnetic),
\nwho he now runs 459 record with to this day. RKP was one of the main promotion
\nteams in Perth within hardcore, jungle & DnB from 2001-2006 hosting many events
\nin clubs and pubs and also putting on 2-3 All-Ages Raves a year in warehouses in
\nand around the city.<\/p>\n

Being born in England but moved to Australia at 4 years old, he moved back to the
\nUK in 2012 to spend some time with his Grandparents. After starting his music
\nproduction journey in 2005 with some friends in their home studio\u2019s as a supplement
\nto deejaying, once back in London he started to properly focus on music production
\nand gained his first release on Spandangle Selection records in 2022 with a 2
\nremixes and then a 4 track EP of original work, big Simon Spangle8 for the
\nopportunity!<\/p>\n

Olly then launched his own imprint called Sample Culture London in 2023 with a 3
\ntrack EP of 93 style jungle tekno LTD to 100 white labels. The label now mainly
\nreleases LTD lathe cuts from himself and other Artists. Sample Culture London now
\nhas 30 releases under it\u2019s belt and is growing each year. Olly had a weekly show for
\n2 years on London based pirate Infrared.FM and has been playing sporadic sets on
\nEnergy 1058 and various other pirate and legal stations with around London and the
\nUK and has now found a regular, weekly home at Eruption.<\/p>\n

Vers-e-tyle\u2019s style is strongly rooted in the sounds of 1991-1995 Jungle, Hardcore
\nand Jungle Tekno. Usually drawing on both newly released records and forthcoming
\ndubs along with some old records from that era during his deejay sets.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
