His gold teeth and b-boy attitude made him stand up from any other dance music artists in the 90’s. Goldie popularized drum’n’bass as a form of musical expression and made him a figure of prime importance in Britain and overseas. His first track was Ajax Project, followed by his first globally released album, Timeless. Described by the critics as “one of jungle's first and best full-length works of art.” He also had huge success with his own record label Metalheadz (which is still going), releasing material from a legion of crucial jungle artists of that era: Photek, Alex Reece and Lemon D among others.

Goldie was shot at Perseverance Studios, East London.

'My first impression on meeting Goldie was that I had better not mess with this guy. But he was genuinely The Mr. Nice Guy. In fact it was getting really difficult for me to get him to look with any attitude – he wouldn’t stop laughing, smiling or joking, and this didn't help, as I had planned to strap him into a straight jacket for the portrait. Nothing would stop him. Eventually I found his weak point: apparently it was to play Bowie records – this seemed to really piss him off .'
