Sutherland got his first break in radio via an introduction from the then-BBC Radio 1 producer Ivor Etienne, (who dubbed him ‘Steve 'Smooth' Sutherland’), to the then-controller of Radio 1, Matthew Banister, to host a four-hour radio show encompassing Hip Hop, R&B, Soul, UK Garage, Dancehall and House. He enlisted the help of DJ / producer Seamus Haji, and after that brief foray, he did various radio mixes for Kiss 100, before London’s Choice FM approached him in 2000. He then brought co-host Asha on board, where they had one of the most successful shows on Choices’ new sister station Choice 107.1, with two shows during the week. Sutherland quickly picked up on the craft of running a successful radio program and went on to guest-host other shows on Choice FM 96.9
