During his many years on the reggae scene Internal Dread worked with reggae artists such as Dennis Bovell, Joseph Beckford, Desmond Foster and Linton Kwesi Johnson, but also pop and rock singers Robyn and Salem Al Fakir.

His last album was the instrumental double disc 'Melodica Buffet' released in 2010.
