Christopher John Mackintosh (born 29 December 1965, Paris)[1] is a British electronic music DJ and producer. Mackintosh was a member of M/A/R/R/S and a DJ at Ministry of Sound in the 1990s, in addition to doing production and remix work from the 1980s onward.[2]
Mackintosh was raised in London, where he DJed on a sound system he had put together with his brother, who was also a DJ.[3] He held a regular gig at London's Flim Flam Club (run by Jonathan More of Coldcut)[4] before being hired by Serious Records to put together compilation mixes, and in 1987 he participated in the DMC World Mixing Championships, winning the UK bracket.[3] That same year he joined Dave Dorrell's Nasty Rox Inc. production crew, after the departure of Nellee Hooper, and then was invited by Ivo Watts-Russell to join a dance/hip-hop studio ensemble on the 4AD label, which became M/A/R/R/S. The group's hit, "Pump Up the Volume", was a hit both in the UK and the US.[2]
