DJ GRIPPER ADE Lounge Session

Vetran DJ and producer Gripper began collecting vinyl in the mid 70s , inspired by his parents eclectic taste in rock n roll, blues, psychedelia, pop, reggae and soul. In 1979 aged 14 he formed a punk band and began recording onto basic 4 track tapes. His taste in music led him to take influences from BBCs John Peel radio shows and the black music coming from Radio Luxembourg. His tape splicing skills led to early mixtapes for breakdancers during the Electro years in the early 80s.
