    Kenny has been a long standing friend of our family I have known him since he was 7 coming around to our house when he was growing up in Burgess Hill hanging out with my sons We are all extremely saddened by the news that Kenny is no longer with us.
    A great character with loads of charisma we are proud to have known him.

    Blown away by this news, Kenny was the man who got me into deep house all those years back at Plastic People under Oxford St. He had a sound and a talent in building sets like no other DJ before or since. Always generous with his time, I remember seeing him leafing through promos kept behind the counter for him in the basement of Vinyl Junkies in Soho and he always had room on his guestlist for us wherever he played. A brilliant fella whose presence and music will be forever missed. A one off, RIP Kenny.

    Only just heard about Kenny’s passing, very sad news. I saw him downstairs at back2basics in Leeds in about 1995 and part way through his set only one of the decks was working, the other one was slowly down and speeding up for no aparant reason. He was a bit hacked off by it but just got on with the job in hand and played aeroplane noises (from his Jetsex EP) between each proper tune and the whole floor got behind him and cheered him on. Myself and my friend were excitable, over-enthusiastic, starry-eyed 17 years olds and just starting to buy records, learning to DJ and go clubbing. So a proper House DJ in a club talking to us was a big thing. He was very kind and generous with his time inbetween records. We bought him a drink to cheer him up and he was over the moon. R.I.P.
