A.k.a. Desyfer
Spencer Hickson is a music producer, writer and DJ. He started to DJ in 1993, having been fortunate enough to be part of the early acid/house scene. In 1995 he met the late Scott Latham through his promotional work at local venues. Scott then introduced Spencer to producing, which led to their first track 'Phoenix ‘ Rise up' (Solid Silver Recordings), which was featured frequently on Radio 1’s Essential Mix, thanks to Sasha and other 'acclaimed DJ’s'. He then in 1999 wrote ‘831’ which was featured on Gatecrashers ‘Wet’ CD Release 2000. This track was also used in the Gatecrasher TV advertising campaign. Whilst also being dropped by Oakenfold on the Essential Mix World Tour from Shangai. 831 then went on to a full release in 2006, which featured both the unheard remixes from X-Cabs along with the new 2006 mixes. Following the 10th 'anniversary' of Scott Latham's death, Rise Up was released on 600 vinyl copies for prosperity. Following the launch John Digweed picked the DDub and played it live on his Essential Mix, 11 years after the first play by Sasha in 95. Spencer also featured on 4 tracks for the UK movie City Rats.
