As a DJ, attempts to categorise his style pose more questions than they answer. Minimalism in its purest form is a tag he more freely associates with labels like Consumed - super sparse, difficult and totally out there. Troy on the other hand, has developed a dance floor friendly hybrid sound that takes the best from the little movements and micro trends that constantly spring up, helping electronic music to evolve. It retains the mechanical, futuristic sounds of techno but is slower and less abrasive allowing him to work between the lines, exploit the space between the beats and push out into the third dimension that epitomises the Minus sound.

Like his label mates, Troy is a strong advocate of cutting edge technology like Ableton Live, Final Scratch and sample tools like Cyloop. The ability to shift between these sound sources offers him unparalleled flexibility as a DJ.

On the production front, having provided the backbone of their releases, Troy wrapped up his work for UK label Underline with the eagerly anticipated Louderbach LP in 2006. Alongside this, his established status as a remixer continues to grow [check out his version of Ellen Alliens Your Body is My Body and his reworkings of the likes of Lawrence and Donnacha Costello]. Theres other Run EP's in the pipeline but maybe the most interesting development is the conception of a new label - Items and Things - together with Magda and Marc Houle. And if thats not enough, theres his full-on schedule as part of Minus' ongoing worldwide showcase tours.
