With early years of daily practice through passion honing his skills at home, DJ LOGIKAL was the First High School Student in New Zealand to convince his teachers to allow him to use " Turntables as a Musical Instrument " at High School for his 5th Form "School Certificate" (NCEA) Subject: Music Performance, pushing the boundaries of the National Education System, it was here whilst a kid at school DJ LOGIKAL recorded his first ever songs, and could be found throughout the school day in the Music Room "Studying" (Jamming) instead of being present in other curricular classes.
