Known popularly as Mr Thing, this supreme disc jockey first started djing in 1987. He said recently- "the first hip-hop record I bought was Streetsounds Crucial Electro, first import 12" was BDP "Poetry", first actual record was ... (cringing) Adam & The Ants "Kings Of The Wild Frontier". From these humble beginnings Mr Thing went on to become one the worlds finest dj's as testified by the following accomplishments.

Marc (Mr Thing) Bowles didn't stand still with spinning records. Along side amassing a fantastic record collection from digging trips across every continent, he practiced his production skills and has gone on to remix and produce records for a credible assortment of UK acts. BBE and Mr Thing have known each other for over 10 years and it was just natural that a collaboration had to happen. The result is Strange Breaks and Mr Thing – a five part ultimate breaks and beats series. A homage to the popular Strange Games Series on the label. Mr Thing said "I wanted to do an extension of my "Anorak" series of mixtapes, which were already a homage if you like to Kon & Amir, Muro & the Conmen etc, but put some stuff out there that covered all bases of music & breaks from the ultra rare to some reasonably common stuff people might have passed up before!"

Mr Thing is a world class dj capable of rocking an party, in any town, who has performed and toured with DJ JAZZY JEFF, J LIVE, MARLEY MARL, BEASTIE BOYS (AS PART OF SCRATCH PERVERTS), DJ PREMIER, DJ VADIM, RUN DMC (AS PART OF SCRATCH PERVERTS), SLUM VILLAGE, MARK B & BLADE, KRS ONE, JEHST. He is also YUNGUN's dj and producer.
