Biography
editGreenfly first started making music at the age of eight when he taught himself to play the piano. Years later after playing various instruments (including guitar, drums, keyboards to name a couple) in many bands, he got into drum and bass around 1994 after hearing one of the Essential Mixes on BBC Radio 1. From then he got into music production and a couple of years later released his self-entitled debut album on Millennium Records, London. Following on from the global success of this he continued to make music and in 2001 his track "G-Funk" was signed by Good Looking Records. The track was an instant success and was voted 3rd best dnb tune of 2003 by a Mixmag poll as well as featuring on LTJ Bukem's Progressions Sessions CDs. Since then Greenfly has released several other tracks on Good Looking Records and over 30 singles on other labels such as V recordings, Camino Blue, FF Recordings,[2] Zen, Red Mist and Strictly-Digital. Greenfly is still producing drum'n'bass for his own label, FF Recordings, as well as music for adverts, animations and websites. In 2009, he released his debut four track EP on FF entitled Playing Tunes.
