Soane was born in the village of Vava'u, located in the northern islands of Tonga. Growing up, music was a big part of his life, so to further this a move to Auckland was taken.

Soane's DJ career began in 1989 when he assumed the unconventional position of doorman/DJ at Club Roma and The Box nightclub, cutting up Hip-Hop and RnB under the somewhat appropriate moniker of DJ Big Daddy.
