Marky and Stamina MC

Biography

A multi-talented natural performer, effortlessly combining the roles of vocalist, host and MC with a massive stage-presence, Stamina’s well earned reputation speaks for itself. He‘s a touring veteran and lives up to his name absolutely, making regular appearances across the globe in Brazil, Australia, New Zealand, USA, Japan, UK, Europe and beyond. Whether alongside Shy FX, DJ Marky, DJ Fu & Jungle Drummer or a whole of top DJs, Stamina’s high energy performances are certain to raise the crowd with an outstanding range of lyrics, harmonies and freestyles to match the occasion. A total professional, his love of music always takes centre stage and shines through whether performing live, on radio or in the studio. Stamina’s unswerving commitment to the drum & bass scene at a grass roots level really sets him apart from the rest and has won him the support of a broad base of fans. Representing on London’s Rinse FM with a weekly show, he’s also a moderator for Drum and Bass Arena’s online forum plus a producer and a DJ in his own right.


Stamina is, by now, no stranger to the stage or to the studio. It was in 2000 when he got his first break, with regular appearances at Bryan G's Movement nights, and in the years since he's played on some of the biggest stages in the world, including Glastonbury, Exit Festival and Skolbeats.

He's also responsible for voicing two tracks that have charted in the UK Top Twenty ('LK' with DJ Marky & XRS, 'Barcelona' with D-Kay & Epsilon) and has worked with Roni Size ('On & On') and more recently Ill Logic & Raf ('Blood Meridian') and DJ Fresh ('Hypercaine'). With a wealth of experience and energy to match, he's also fronted live touring shows with London Elektricity Live and Craggz & Parallel Forces. Currently Stamina is performing regularly as MC of choice for both DJ Marky and Shy FX, with further endeavours into the 'live' arena in the shape of 'Jung Fu' (Jungle Drummer vs DJ Fu live).

Stamina has also hosted Rinse FM's first dedictated drum & bass show since Summer 2008. Broadcast weekly on a Tue night/Wed morning, his show enables him to get back to his lesser-known roots in DJing - check the archive available here. Stamina is also affiliated with ethical clothing brand, THTC, who have a long tradition of supporting conscious underground artists. For the future, expect more vocal outings in a multitude of genres, production under the long-dormant alias of 'Armour' and DJ sets.
