Please tell our readers who you are and what you do?
Hey guys. My name is Craig Anthony AKA Inside Out and I am a House DJ and Producer based in the North West of the UK. I started out my career around 2004 within the UK Bounce and hard dance scene, playing all the major venues across the country including Maximes and the mighty Wigan Pier. I also had some major releases on FFR (Fast Forward Records) which landed me with guest spots and some live P.A work under my old alias, Way4ward Deejays. Around 2010 I decided to try my hand at the House scene, especially the Jackin and Bassline side of things which was really taking over at the time. I was the producer for a group called the Chaos Junkies but I felt restricted and wanted to go my own path, and here I am today! I'm now fully involved in the House music industry and produce a variety of House from Jackin to Tech and Techno. I've had releases with multiple labels including, Yoonek Records, Sweep The Floor Records and 3000Bass. I also run a promotion called Absolutely Flawless which is an event covering all aspects of House and UK Garage.
How would you describe your influences and how have they changed over the years?
My main influences over recent years have been the likes of, Chris Lorenzo, Chris Gresswell, Rich Pinder and DJOKO. Lorenzo was a huge inspiration to me who has done amazingly well for him self. My current influence has to be Rich Pinder who is just killing it right now with every track.

What´s new right now?
I have a brand new free download out right now on my Soundcloud which is just a fun little remix of a Beegees classic. I like to give out as much free music as I can as a thank you to everyone who has supported my music.

What is your number one tip to improve your music production or songwriting skills?
I'd say my number one tip on production is to just be patient and be prepared to be knocked back a few times. No one gets it's right straight away.
