He was a 12-year resident DJ at the UK’s longest running Friday night at Wigan Pier, held this night together with Lee Turner for 7 years without the aid of any guest DJs, relying solely on there musical taste and mixing skills. It was then that Malc and Lee joined forces as The Connection and settled as a resident at Miss Moneypenny’s – (the UK’s most respected house club). he also closed the 1998 summer Miss Moneypenny’s party on the clubbing Mecca Ibiza, then again in 1999.

Malc has quickly established himself as one the most sought-after DJ’s in the city, as well as now being a very well respected promoter to. He is now getting asked to work in Asia, Australia, The Middle East and back in the UK. In the past 2 years Malc has been taking a back seat, so he could concentrate on his new album.
