Past - click here for main site
The
Unsung Hero's comprise of two DJ's, Tim Dunning
(on the right) and Steve Morecroft (left). They started
off their career in the rave scene back in 1995 playing alongside some
of the DJ's now recognised as major players in the hard house scene, such
as DJ Brisk (Stimulant DJ), Billy 'Daniel' Bunter (Honey Pot), and Vinylgroover
(Hectic). The highlight of this era was playing to over 2'500 people at
Stevenage Ice Bowl after winning a national mixing competition.
DJ'ing
Style
The
love of almost all dance music genres has seen the unsung Hero's re-invent
themselves time after time and they are now recognised as not only trance
DJ's but also Funky house and staying true to their roots they still play
old skool from 91-93. Technically they are inspired by the likes of DJ
Brisk, Carl Cox and the DMC scratch DJs such as Q-Bert the Scratch Perverts.
They are well known for their down to earth attitude and ability to have
a great presence behind the decks making contact with the crowd in ways
more than just their music, they are natural born crowd pleasers.
Experience
The
duo are used to international as well as UK gigs and in the summer of
2000 they became residents playing old skool and trance in Ayia Napa's
Ice Ku and Club Inferno playing alongside Dj's such as Ferry Corsten,
Lisa Pin
Up, Tiesto, Guy Ornadel and Graham Gold to name a few. Whilst out there
they also made regular appearances for New Dawn @ Amnesia and the well
loved Beach party @ Macronisis beach. A summer favourit of Rado 1's Trevor
Nelson.
Half way through the summer The Unsung hero's had the offer to help kick
start the clubscene in Lebanon , a decision had to be made so whilst Steve
continued their contract in Ayia Napa Tim jetted off to Beirut to begin
a residency playing pumping trance and hard house to over 2000 Lebanese
clubbers weekly for three months.
Now
Since returning from abroad The Unsung Hero's have received bookings from
all over the country, (Birmingham, Lichfield, Stoke, Stafford, Liverpool,
London, Rugeley, Newcastle under Lyme, Tamworth, Redditch, Nottingham,
Leicester, Coalville, Manchester and Plymouth) precisely mixing different
styles (Hard House, Trance, Old Skool & Funk) which is earning them
new friends and fans whenever they play with their crowd pleasing sounds
and antics. With an ever growing demand these guys they can be found entertaining
a packed dance floor most weekends. The list of clubs they have played
at is second to none and it available at www.unsungdjs.co.uk/portfolio.htm
Versatility and the ability to play cutting edge sounds from different
dance genres proves a big advantage over other DJ's. They are dj's born
and breed, with
only the skies the limit for these guys.
2002
This year has seen the barriers broken by the Unsung Hero's playing some
of the biggest venue and clubs in the UK. They played at their first festival
at Mainframe in June with 15000 clubbers present. Then they played Storm
at the Emporium, the home of Passion, JFK and the MYNC. Following that
they played Insomniacs 3rd Birthday at the Republic, the home of the world
famous Gatecrasher. They played Hotdog (the 2nd best club in central England)
at Isis in Nottingham with Lisa Lashes. Follows by Hotdog new night called
Naked at Leicester University. They also took a trip back to Beirut to
play the launch party of the UK based drink Sidekick. At the same time
dropping into a couple of clubs for a special session.
They had bookings in December alongside the world's number 1 DJ team,
the Scratch Perverts and the old skool masters Ratpack. Also catch them
at the mighty Illusion's allnighter at the home of Golden, at the Void.
They are also booked for New Years Eve at Religion in Nottingham and boxing

2003
With
2003 being a strange year in clubland and many clubs closing down its
been an up and down year for the Unsung Heros.
Bookings
have been great with sets at Passion, Hidden, Blend, Love Zoo, Bambu,
Bullit (residents), Illusion to name a few. The beginning of the year
was hectic to say the least. The summer was a bit more chilled and then
once again the end of the year has brought loads of bookings and a new
residency at Bullit 2 - in Hanley, Stoke.
Next
year will be bigger and better than ever so watch this space!
Peace
