Back in the day when acid was just a tab, DJ Pierre was holed up in his bedroom inventing a sound which would impact on the music scene forever. In 1986, 'acid house' was in its pre-infancy when DJ Pierre picked up a 303 and the infamous "Acid Tracks" was born. 

Nathaniel Pierre Jones AKA DJ ‘Wildpitch' Pierre is a rare breed. An artist who's considered a mentor to many of the ‘A' list DJ fraternity, old and new, and one man who continues to stand strong in an industry that's had its ups ‘n' downs. 

From the days of ‘Phuture', Pierre's highly successful guise with fellow squelchers Spanky and Herb J - and their epic release ‘Acid Trax', to his biggest hit ‘The Horn Song', featuring Barbara Tucker, his solo projects with David Morales, Felix Da Housecat and his stint as Head of A&R at Strictly Rhythm, DJ Pierre is a force to be reckoned with.
