‘I will miss the fights, brawls, criticism, judgements but especially your talent in finding sounds and melodies unparalleled.’
Other DJs paid tribute to Miles on social media.
‘Children’, taken from his album 1996 Dreamland, was a huge hit around the world and reached number one in over a dozen different countries.
Posh Spice once introduced him on a Christmas special of Top of the Pops by saying she wanted to have his children.
