Hook’n'Sling – Hussle n Bussle 

Anthony began as a breaks DJ on the Sydney circuit in 2000 and has since played his unique style of breaks at nights such as Japan4@Ambar, FunkTrust, Haphazard, BUMP, Inner Styles and Australia wide Pepsi Live Events. Drawing on early influences such as Lee Coombs, The Crystal Method and JDS, Anthony’s sets have always been filled with an energetic electro-rhythmic vibe. 

In 2002, production seemed to be a natural progression for Anthony. Already producing bootlegs and mash-ups for his own sets, writing original material was only a matter of time. 

October 2004 saw the release of HooknSling’s debut release. The Number Cruncher EP, in its first week of release, it came in at Number 6 in DJ Magazine’s Breaks and Beats Chart. Big support for the EP has come from the Plump DJ’s, Danny McMillan, DJ Hyper, General MIDI and Friendly. The EP also received generous airply from domestic stations such as FBI, Pulseradio and 2RDJ and also abroad on internet radio and Tayo’s well respected Kiss FM show. 

Since his debut release Anthony has completed 2 remixes for Nasty Tales / Come on a my House (Hussle n Bussle) which were released in May 2005. More recently Anthony was asked by Ministry of Sound Australia to arrange and produce a vocal mix of Sick Strings by The Jack Addicts, Mills & Joy for Hussle Recordings. Anthony efforts have been recently rewarded with airplays by both Annie Nightingale and Pete Tong on Radio 1. 

Early 2005 saw Anthony venture into Europe for the first time as a DJ with non-other than headline slots at London breakbeat nights, Platform 12 and C64 which have previously both seen the likes of Soul of Man, Rennie Pilgrem, Krafty Kuts and the Stanton Warriors. 

Recently returning to Australia, Anthony has been concentrating on new HooknSling material. Released in 2005 is Anthony’s debut on white label, lending his production towards the Tricknology series, this time with Tricknology no9. The follow up release on HusslenBussle Records was put out Aug 05 with early support for the material already coming from the Plumps, Friendly, Kid Kenobi, and Cedric Benoit. 

With his latest release Silver Service/Vegas Heat on Hussle n Bussle selling like hot cakes, this gig is bound to be ram jammed, so get there early!!!
