Rewind: DeeJay Punk-Roc - Far Out

This lively chunk of breakbeat/hip hop house was released as a single 20 years ago in August 1998, reaching number 43 in the UK singles chart. It can be found on the album 'Chickeneye'. Like many of the artists featured in my Rewind selections from 1998, Deejay Punk-Roc was played a lot on the indie flagship Radio 1 show The Evening Session. There was a lot of confusion over the identity of Deejay Punk-Roc, due to producer Jon Paul Davies handling all the studio work, and Brooklyn DJ Charles Gettis handling the live shows. 

The alias would last until 2002. 

Davies later released music as Trinity Hi-Fi, a trip hop/house collaboration of other artists. He also had many UK Dance Chart successes under various pseudonyms including Player One and Spork.
