He’s been DJ-ing on independent radio since the late 90s and currently presents the on-line new music show Graham Duff’s Mixtape. He also selects the soundtrack music for much of his television work, commissioning an original score from Liz Fraser and Damon Reece for his Sky Arts horror anthology series: The Nightmare Worlds of H.G.
