Henry Hacking's great passion for music has lead to an exciting and memorable 7 years of DJ'ing on Radio and on the club scene. His first break was literally a Tea break - at age 17 starting out as maker to the 'Q103fm Breakfast show' - after 6 months of tea making, he was presenter on the show and later the producer and during the two years working on the show it was the number 1 breakfast show in the area, soundly thrashing BBC R1 amongst many others and gaining over 240,000 listeners. This paved the way for an introduction into the Cambridge club scene with residencies at the largest and most popular club in Cambridge and as long running resident also helped promote and build the popularity of Pure in Ely - the coolest venue in East Anglia.

Despite sets at the gay pride THE PINK PICNIC and a set at ROUGE from winning the "NEW DJ TALENT OF 2003" competition for Trust The DJ, and a guest slot on VIBE FM "VINYL DECADANCE" Henry got itchy feet and headed to Canada to gain some international experience with the help of ROY THE ROACH playing at popular venues THE STANDARD NIGHTCLUB, Edmonton (Connected Entertainment). PALACE NIGHTCLUB, Calgary and the AU BAR, Vancouver returning to the UK in March 2004 to team up with Tony "Tee" Vegas as The Beatthiefs. Since then things have really taken off a spectacular array of gigs and residencies gained by determination and hard work at INIQUITY Brighton, RETOX Covent Garden, London, CLUB M Newmarket, PO NA NA Cambridge (all residencies) as well as guest slots at SLAMMING VINYL, THE SANCTUARY Milton Keynes, LOVE 2 LOVE Cambridge, FRANTIC EUPHORIA ALBUM LAUNCH London, DARWIN COLLEGE MAY BALL Cambridge, TURNMILLS London, FEZ CLUB Cambridge, PINK! Cambridge Cherry Hinton Hall, DIGITAL LOVE - St Ives, TICKLED PINK @ CLUB M Newmarket, THE ULTIMATE DANCE MUSIC EVENT @ CHILFORD HALL Cambridge, FIREFLY Leeds, THE COPYRIGHT CLUB London, HIGH SOCIETY vs HED KANDI @ THE JUNCTION Cambridge, a Germanic debut at CREME 21 Stuttgart and a late summer spin at CLUB LOUNGE Pacville Malta.

NYE 2004 saw them headline overseas in Budapest for 'CANDY' the leading gay promotion in Hungary and 2005 has work with BACARDI tours, Woodhead Calliva (London's biggest Rich n Famous party organizers) LASHED, BIG, HIGH SOCIETY, SALAVATION dates in Utah, Boston and New York, Vancouver, Stuggart and more CANDY parties in Budapest (due to the success of NYE) plus regular guest mixes on MINISTRY OF SOUND RADIO, and a feature with Riley and Durant on GALAXY FM ..phew!  Not bad for a Tea Boy and a Tee Boy!
