What is written below is
what I was feeling at the time,
I was on a "strict diet" of d'n'b,
but am back into all forms
of "aural pleasure".
Life & it's gravity
has held me down long enough.
It is now time for my "big break"!
Please check me out,
then help me out!!!***
~b~
born & raised in Detroit,
now in Cali,
just outside of SF (The City)..
i could play drums the first time i sat down at a set at age 9 or 10, amazing the whole family at a yearly Thanksgiving feast...
i had a love of classical music, mainly filmscores, since i was a kid, astronomy & all things Sci-Fi....
at the not-so-tender age of 11, i fell in love with the FUNK, some classic ROCK, but was too much of a bookworm to investigate who or what i had just heard.....
one day,
in 7th grade,
someone handed me
Prince "1999" on vinyl......
i then knew who it was & what i liked, and became "obsessed" with music (mainly Prince & related artists), and then came "electro" a.ka. "breakdancing music", and i became a (very good:) breakdancer.......
somewhere in a basement in Detroit,
i would mix Prince/related in
with my rap & electro jams,
and "create" my own music onto cassette,
onto a very sensitive-buttoned boom-box,
adding in my own (champion!;) beat-boxing,
and later figured out someone took my idea,
and "INVENTED" TECHNO........
mainstream music became "samey" & a bit boring towards the end of the 80's & into the early 90's, some amazing funk (DAG, Jamiroquai - the 2 funkiest EVER!!) came forth, and i loved TLC's "CrazySexyCool", but i needed something that included an amalgam of everything i had loved & lived up to that point.........
i worked for a very famous (but recently defunct) record store, and asked for some interesting promo's, where i discovered a couple "Acid Jazz" & "Trip Hop" CD compilations, loving the music right away (DJ Krush, DJ Shadow, DJ Cam, Woob, etc), i started buying CD singles of the tracks i loved so much, to hear (& have) all of the various remixes..........
on the same day, i picked up a Funki Porcini CD single for "King Asahabanapal", in which i heard (and was COMPLETELY BLOWN AWAY by) the Dillinja remix, AND another Trip Hop compilation with T Power VS MK Ultra "Mutant Jazz"............
"OMmfnG!"
was all i could muster as my jaw dropped to the floor,
and my breath was taken from me,
as i had FOUND MY CALLING............
took me 3 years checking out gigs (J Majik, Ed Rush, Doc Scott, Peshay, LTJ Bukem) & shows (Roni Size & Reprazent with LIVE drums & stand-up bass!.... absolutely awesome!!), saving some money, putting up with life & it's gravity, to get an electronic music class, 2 semesters in a row, just to create what little i have.............
hopefully, with time & Money & HELP *(HINT-HINT!!!;), there will be MUCH more..............
tracks are "demos of demos", raw, unfinished, but worth a listen...
made 4 an"electronic music" class many years back, with about 4 hours studio time each....
these are just the templates of what i really wanted to do.......
