editDj Blakey Intro: Dj Blakey is currently one of the UK's best underground DJ's and widely respected for skills and style.
Unlike most of his counterparts he isn't just a turntablist. Blakey has been very active in the club scene, appearing at cutting edge clubs across Europe (Fabric/London, Gatehouse/Derby, Rust/Copenhagen, Savannah/Ibiza, No Fakin'/Liverpool.) whilst regularly holding down residencies in London clubs such as Bar Rumba, 333, Sound, Herbal, Elbow Rooms, and a residency at Eclectic Breaks.
His first release in 2004 was the turntable remix of Kelis Milkshake, which received heavy rotation on Radio 1, London's Kiss FM and Brighton's Southern FMm as well as being a club favourite.
In 2004, he ventured into the world of Radio, and now hosts a fortnightly show on the BBCs 1Xtra called the M1X show on Monday nights.
Dj Blakey is currently the hottest club and battle DJ on the UK circuit, competing on the DJ battle scene, claiming the 2004 UK Technics/DMC title, as well as winning the UK DMC Team Championship as part of the 'Truesicians' Crew in 2003.
