Career
Hinds' first single was "Roughneck Sister Sue", released in 1993 under the name of R.A.W. The track found some underground success but was not financially profitable for the label. Subsequent singles included "Cock Out & Ride" and "Feelin (Gal A Fuss)/Zero", and by the time Hinds had produced and released his fourth single, the label had been established as a drum & bass record label. Hinds subsequently released 20 singles through Assassin Records, all under different aliases.
In 2000, Hinds's record "Don Gramma" was nominated for Best Newcomer and Best Single 2001, and won the award for Best Video of the year in the UKHH Awards.Script error: No such module "Unsubst".

After touring the UK for two years, Hinds toured Europe in 2003 with German producer DJ Dynamite.Script error: No such module "Unsubst". In 2004, he released his second album Have Patience, from which the most successful single was "Lets Av It" featuring Skinnyman.
