The UK-hailing artist ,Type 1 has been deeply immersed in the dance music scene for well over a decade as a DJ, producer, label owner & promoter.

Growing up in the outskirts of London and buying records at a very young age, London is where he earned his apprenticeship and plied his trade full time for almost 10 years. This has seen him gain residencies at some of London’s best clubs such as, The End, The Cross, The Fridge, Fire & The Mass. Moving his music to new ears, he’s guested at other major London clubs including Brixton Academy, Ministry Of Sound, Cable, SE One, The Egg, Pacha, 54, Coronet, just to name a few.
He has also toured Ibiza on several occasions, which included him playing at the super clubs Eden and Es Paradis and other famous spots such as Café Del Mar & Mambo’s.
Driven by the desire to create his own music, he has accepted the challenge of creating his own sounds. Type 1 attained a degree in music production in 2008 and started his own production trail. This has subsequently led him to releasing and remixing on multiple labels and further on,starting his own label :‘Malfunktion Records’.
His tech house productions and DJ sets are always full of energy, just like his personality.
It is the support of Type 1's productions that speaks for itself with A-listers such as Richie Hawtin, Luciano, Chris Leibing, Dubfire, Laurent Garnier, Mark Knight, Marco Carola, Jon Rundell to name a few.
