He presented various shows for BBC Radio 1, where he played a variety of hard dance music, including Breakbeat, Electro, Hard Trance, Hardcore and Hardstyle. Kutski also currently produces and hosts his own weekly podcast "Keeping the Rave Alive", which plays music similar to that heard on his BBC Radio 1 shows, and has received rave reviews since release.
Kutski started DJing aged 15. The first big event he played was Elevate in Bangor which resulted in a residency.
