'I left my job to DJ on TikTok after being overlooked at work'

After being overlooked for a promotion at work, Ashley Gordon decided it was time "to do something different".

He turned to TikTok and now, known as DJ AG, he has built a global following of more than two million.

The London-based DJ spoke to BBC London about how he's gone from streaming his live sets around his day job to performing alongside artists including Burna Boy, Jessie J and Alesha Dixon.
