🔥 Birmingham’s own UK Garage & Funky House heavyweight, 1 Cut Valentino – the artist formerly known as DnB’s MC Ace – has been tearing up the scene since the early 90s.

Cutting his teeth as a rave MC, 1CV’s voice became a fixture at iconic nights like Hysteria, Pandemonium, Euphoria, Desire, and Helter Skelter. By the mid-90s he swapped the mic for the decks, bringing the same raw energy and passion straight into the mix.

For years he held down the airwaves on Midlands Underground FM and Silk City, carving his reputation as a DJ who could effortlessly transition from the dark depths of Drum & Bass to the soulful vibes of UK Garage and the uplifting grooves of Funky House.

As a resident DJ across some of the UK’s most legendary House & Garage institutions – including Chocolate City, Candy, Everybody Loves Garage, and NICE – 1 Cut has become a name synonymous with pure dancefloor energy. He’s also been a staple on the UK’s underground Mystery Tours, keeping ravers moving in secret locations and unforgettable venues.

From the Tunnel in Glasgow to Oscars on the pier in Clacton-on-Sea, 1 Cut Valentino has lit up every corner of the UK with his trademark sound and unstoppable vibe.

This is 1 Cut Valentino – a DJ who doesn’t just play music, he creates memories on the dancefloor. 🔊✨
