Wittyboy
Duwaine Whitfield, better known by the stage name Wittyboy, is a British DJ, record producer and remixer from Leeds, West Yorkshire, England.

Early life
Whitfield was raised in Leeds where he was influenced by a mix of speed garage, grime, hip hop, house and dancehall from an early age. He began to gain support on national radio stations along with regular nightclub performances within the bassline scene.

Music career
After a number of successful underground releases, Wittyboy was given his first major label opportunity, remixing singer Estelle's "No Substitute Love" (Atlantic Records). Wittyboy continued to grow his remix portfolio working with the likes of Nitin Sawhney featuring Roxanne Tataei on his remix of "Distant Dreams" (Cooking Vinyl), followed by his remix of Craig David's "Are You Up for This"< (Ice Cream Records) and Jodie Aysha's "Pozer (Zer Zer Zer)" (All Around the World Productions). Wittyboy has been featured on a number of compilations such as Nitin Sawhney's London Undersound and Instrumentals, Pure Garage Rewind: Back to the Old Skool and Pure Bassline, both mixed by DJ EZ (Warner Music UK), Ministry of Sound's The Sound of Bassline series and Fabric Live 47. Wittyboy has been featured in numerous publications such as ComplexVibrations Magazine, DJ Mag, issue 80 of RWD Magazine, and Zap Bang Magazine.
