Mixmaster Morris, real name, Morris Gould, (born in Brighton, England in 1965) is an ambient DJ and underground musician.
Morris Gould was born in Brighton, grew up in Lincolnshire and was educated at Millfield in Somerset and King's College London. At 15 he founded a punk rock band, The Ripchords, with himself on guitar, Sean Dromgoole as lead singer, Mike Trei on drums and Jonathan Collins (aka Jonathan Jetlag) on bass guitar. The Ripchords' sole release, an eponymous EP with four tracks, was championed by John Peel and quickly sold out.
After leaving university, Morris began working as a DJ in 1985 with his "Mongolian Hip Hop Show" on pirate radio in London. After a year of managing a club called "The Gift" in New Cross, Morris began releasing material as Irresistible Force in 1987, initially in collaboration with singer-songwriter Des de Moor. He became involved with the emerging UK acid house scene, playing at underground parties across the UK. A show with the band Psychic TV led to him becoming full-time DJ with The Shamen, and touring with them on their celebrated 'Synergy' Tours for nearly two years.
The first release as Irresistible Force was the single I Want To in 1988,
