Growing up in the early Florida Electronic Dance Music scene, Gary Baker was a witness to ground breaking performances and has experienced many epic moments, which helped form his style as an artist. Always seemingly to be involved on some level he was lucky to get to take part in the many of the premier events of the time. These experiences in addition to being a part-time roadie for Rabbit in the Moon in the late 90’s, he traveled the US as they headlined many of the classic festivals with the top acts of the day. Honing his DJ skills at the house and after parties associated with those events, in the new millennium Baker started to venture out and bring his music to the masses. He got his start opening on the road for DJ Monk and other grassroots gigs and then shortly thereafter was added to the Hallucination DJ roster. Then in 2010 BAKER dedicated himself bringing Drum & BASS back to Tampa. This all started by exposing his style of DnB to the new blood in the scene with his performances.

In 2014, Baker moved out west to Las Vegas and during the Pandemic reinvented himself as an artist and to advance his style as well as to start producing original drum and bass music.
