Piller was born into the mod scene (his mother was head of a fan club for the mod band Small Faces) and came in contact with soul music early-on. He began with DJing in the early 1980s (time of the punk initiated mod revival) combining soul, mod, ska, and punk in his sets.
In 1987, after running the record labels Acid Jazz and Acid Jazz, together with Gilles Peterson (at that time DJ at Acid Jazz), he cofounded the legendary Acid Jazz label. Before that, he created the "Acid Jazz" style; playing together in clubs a mix between Psychedelic Jazz, 1970s Funk, Hip Hop and Soul.
