R:THMACE's love for music began late, in early 1998. He was first introduced to 'proper' dance music when he discovered his first dance compilation in a local record shop.From that point on he decided that dance music was his first love. The following summer he bought his first set of vinyl decks, and attended his first dance festival - Homelands (Now know as HiFi).Stuart was mesmerized by the whole dance music scene but he took a particular interest in Hard House and Techno before he finally found his feet when he discovered tough house and Electro where he truly felt most comfortable.In 2006 he then decided to try his hand at producing and has been refining his skills ever since.
