Brief DJ Bio
Missile Myles is arguably one of the soul man responsible for the breakbeat scene in South Africa. When asked why he chose Dj'ing, he replied by saying that there is nothing else he would rather be doing.
In 1993 Myles started playing Alternative, 80’s and 90’s rock in Johannesburg, South Africa. It was in ’95 that Myles turned his dj skills towards dance music and started learning how to mix early nineties House music. It was in early ’96 he changed his sound to breakbeat and for the next 2 years was booked all over South Africa. In early ’98 he earned himself a residency at the legendary club 206. Due to having this residency he was chosen to mix the second 206 CD release distributed through Virgin/EMI South Africa. Back in 1998 Myles had the oppotunity to be first dj in South Africa to play Breakbeat on National Radio on the Mark Gillman show.
In his successful South African Career Myles was fortunate enough to be featured, play alongside and a support Dj for some of the biggest names in the Dance Universe. These names include the likes of Goldie, Jon Carter, Cut La Roc, Diesel Boy, Aphrodite, Richie Louisy & Jack Henney of Cargo 77, Johan Gielen(shanghai), Bryan Cross and Marcus Intelex to name a few.
Myles has played at all the major festivals around South Africa including OppiKoppi and Woodstock. Myles is a regular National Radio on Mark Gillman’s Vinyl Frontier on 5Fm(South Africa).
He also lends his production talents to various artists like Caytie Marvelis, Mandoza and Mood Phase 5 in the remixing of their tracks adding his unique flavour and style. Myles has also recently teamed up with Xeum(france) under the name “studio 31” and have released a remix for MPI Project on the Fracture Records(SA).
Missile Myles has been based in Asia for the last 4 years. In these 4 years myles has been selected on a number of tours for brands such as Chivas, Coors beer, Hennesy, bacardi, J&B Whiskey and has just recently completed a Johnnie Walker tour.
