Been into dance music since it began really since the late 80's and it come along at just the right time really just as i was becoming a teenager.Had the slight Breakdance/Early electro phase just before that, then listened to the Chicago house,Detroit house and the British house that was around etc, then seemed to naturally progress into listening to Acid house and the bleepy tunes and techno of 89/90 and then theHardcore/Breakbeat/Rave sound that started not long after that.Used to listen to alot of radio (and have quite an intrest in radio,but thats a different matter) and used to listen to Kiss FM (london) back then,and it was a pirate station at the time,and listened to colin favor and colin dale,and steve jacksons house show and Jules etc,and used to record there shows sometimes, on cassettes i still have actually come to think of it.Got all my old tapes together to have a clean up once and iv ended up with 3 carrier bags full of them.Used to drive up the north downs just a few miles away in friends cars looking down above the countryside in kent trying to recieve london pirate stations like FantasyFM. Was always into gettin mixtapes and recording stuff and radio shows. I always liked editing things,tape/CD/even video at times.I didnt know it back then but thinking about it now whenever anyone of my friends was around my house when i was young i was always putting music on or messing around in one form or another in the background putting on tapes or cd's or records or recording something. I wasnt hardly ever the sort of person to put an album on and play the whole thing through like someone normally would.Id maybe play one track,then take it out and play something else,but then maybe go back to the first album again.So that there really should of been a sign that i had a little bit of a dj inside me.lol.Just always liked playing music to people. From liking the early 90s Hardcore music i kept on following and being influenced by the Djs on that scene so naturally fell into drum and bass cos thats the path alot of them djs went in,but around 1995/1996 i wanted a change and wasnt liking the bouncy cheese that hardcore had become.I was abit lost so went back to just all forms of house music.Dabbled in most genres,and listened to trance if i wanted something abit harder.So now im into alot of house styles.And im liking disco influences in dance music aswell,and its even made me appreciate actual disco music in itself,cos i was to young when disco was first around.Used to be very much into roller discos and skating as a kid,from about 8 to 16yrs old and was pretty good at it and loved it,i dont think i hardly ever missed goin to one,which gives images of disco boogie woogie being played,lol but it was just the national pop chart music. We'd all love a time machine but we cant have one..but thats another great thing about music,its the only time machine we have.A song can instantly take you back to a place and time,or to a fond memory and even briefly give you the exact feeling you had when you was back in that time and just for a few fleeting moments you was back in the past again. But then i have a good memory about most things,and can usually hear a song and be abit geeky and instantly know which year it came out and associate some sort of memory with it and how old i was at the time. Became intrested in the dj aspect and mixing music and i certainly felt the buzz of what doing that can create and make you feel inside.You used to listen to those mix tapes/shows and when 2 tunes hit in the right place & key it is almost bloody magical and sends your biorhythms through the roof.lol. but its always only been a hobby.And so from then and until now iv always been into house and electronic music in general.I own Technics,used VDJand recently Traktor to mix,got my hands on some music producing software and dabbled with that.
