If it is hard proof that you are looking for check the GU catalogue. He quite literally, almost IS Global Underground ( a fact this humble man Bristol never highlights). With a notably different mindset from the other egomanical DJs and club promoters, he is the kind of person you silently but perpetually wish "godspeed" with every new venture he undertakes.
Personally I think he is what it means to be a DJ; a man who, first and foremost, spins the music he loves and does everything he can to bring it to the ones who love it as much as he does or at least are operating on a similar wavelength.
