In the early 90s, he began DJing at hardcore techno parties alongside big names such as Tony Humphries, Adamski and Carl Cox. During this time, he was also a resident at Baba G's (Massive Attack) club in Bristol and a regular DJ at DIY and Tonka parties. He was subsequently named one of the 20 most promising house DJs in the world in a poll organised by MixMag.

The following year, Dino travelled to India, where he discovered psychedelic goa trance, which changed his musical direction. While working as a DJ for Dragonfly, Dino also met other talented artists such as Man With No Name, Juno Reactor and Simon Posford, and decided not only to play music, but to create it.
