Trax noticed the Drum and Bass scene was changing, no longer did as many people seem to want tracks that challenged the norm. The market had in his opinion began to become stagnant. However the down tempo/ breakbeat scene there were no rules and happily welcomed new styles. This reminded Trax of the early Hardcore/ Drum and Bass days. In 1997 Trax signed to a record company that strongly agreed with his views, Wildlife and released an E.P under the alias of Pure Indigo.
Shortly afterwoods he released another E.P on Beats and Pieces records which gained him many new fans including Laurence Garnier, Giles Peterson and Mixmaster Morris.
In 1998 Lacerba records contacted Trax and requested permission to license the track `Flowing` As well as the master DAT containing `Flowing` Trax sent half a dozen new tracks he thought Lacerba might be interested in, they quickly agreed and offered Trax an album and a single deal and promptly released the Define Funk ? EP. Trax locked himself in the studio and wrote the Rhythmic Delusions L.P which was greatly received when released in 1999.Followed by a series of 12"s and remixes for the label.
Since the demise of Lacerba Records Trax has worked for various companies including Miami based Kriztal, German based Mole Records, Goodlooking as well as a remix of the infamous Kurtis Blow classic `The Breaks.`
The last year Trax has returned to his dnb roots and released a Great Track with singer/songwriter Lava Flo on the Outsider Label. As well as some great 3 deck dj shows mixing hip hop scratches with dnb as only Trax does. Trax has also released a number of great 12"s on Outsider and more recently Horizons Music. As well as collaborating with Macc + Nucleus.
