In this episode of When I Grow Up, Paul Glazby sits down with longtime friend and hard dance producer Alf Bamford, better known as Tecknikal, for a massive deep dive into his journey from bedroom beats to global dance floors.

Alf opens up about getting signed as a teenager, sending demos while still in school, and how skipping college paid off when remix work started rolling in. From remixing for major names to a wild 10-year stint in London’s hedonistic club scene, to eventually relocating to Australia—this is the full story of a career built on creativity, chaos, and clicky mouse buttons.

Paul and Alf discuss the evolution of hard dance, wild gig stories, engineering for top artists, their unexpected friendship, and how a remix Alf created 14 years ago is suddenly gaining popularity again, thanks to Oliver Heldens dropping it at Ultra Music Festival.

Whether you're a fan of the music, the memories, or just the madness, this one is packed with laughs, insights, and nostalgia.
