From an early age the boy’s free time was dedicated
to music, be it collecting new and classic pieces
of vinyl to their already immense collection, adding
new pieces of equipment to their self constructed
sound system or simply providing the music at friends
house parties, locally Bobby & Steve were already
carving a name for themselves as respected DJ’s.
At just twenty years of age the twins landed their
first regular DJ gig at a local wine bar, ‘Simpsons’,
and soon afterwards were holding regular Saturday
night warehouse parties, searching out illegal venues
which were big enough to hold the hoards of followers
as the word spread. Playing their favourite soul and
funk music at their own parties alongside fellow guest
DJ’s Norman Jay, Linden C and Trevor ‘Madhatter’
Nelson and because of this Bobby & Steve became
instrumental and respected figures in the eighties
warehouse party scene.
News of just how successful the boys parties soon
spread and it wasn’t long before Bobby &
Steve were approached by Gordon Mac, initiator and
pioneer of London’s biggest (then) pirate radio
station Kiss FM, who offered them a weekly slot on
the station, the already established ‘Zoo Experience’
was born.
