He is the son of the photographer Richard Young.

Early lifeDuring his teenage years he developed an interest in hip hop, R&B, early house music and jungle, his first cassette purchase was Bobby Brown's 'Don't Be Cruel' album. The turning point came when his elder brother Danny was given a pair of turntables for Christmas and promptly left them in his room when he went back to college. Sam commandeered the decks, a close friend taught him how to dj using 2 copies of B!tch with a perm by Tim Dogg. The duo, set to call themselves OPM (standing for original party movers) started playing at friends' parties at Hammersmith Town Hall, as well as venturing into pirate radio (Juice FM). At 18, they received their break. At a Donna Karan Party with his father, he introduced himself as a DJ to party planner Jeanette Calliva who had begun putting on nights at Chinawhite. Two days later, when her booked DJ dropped out, Sam got the call and before long, OPM were a regular booking playing parties at her nights at the Mayfair Club and Chinawhite.
