Sydney DJ and Promoter, one of the promoters for the 'fuzzy' parties - such as parklife, field day & harbourlife. It all started long, long ago in an inner city nightclub where a DJ and a lighting operator were working. Bored after an 8 hour shift, John and Ming started talking about promoting. Neither of them had done it before but they both had a history working in the dance music industry. They figured it was worth a shot and Fuzzy was born. The first Fuzzy party was Tunespotting on 10th August 1996 and they didn't know what to expect. Lucky for them it was a sold out show which gave them enough money to fund the next party. A string of successful events at Sublime on Pitt St, Sydney convinced the owners to take Fuzzy on as the club's full time promoters. Fuzzy helped to make Sublime a clubbing legend, which transformed from a venue to a Friday night at Sydney's largest club, Home. After years of promotion for Sublime and Home, Fuzzy decided to step out on their own with two new brands that quickly revolutionised the Sydney dance scene. In March 2000 Parklife became the first outdoor dance event to be held in Centennial Parklands. Now Parklife travels nationally to 5 capital cities across Australia to a combined crowd of over 100 000 festival goers and has become the iconic festival to kick off the summer festival season. In July 2000 the first Fuzzy Breaks party was held at the Metro. With the help of the Fuzzy Breaks events the breaks scene in Sydney and Australia exploded to such a size that events like Winter Break sold out 5,500 tickets at the Hordern Pavilion.
