Regressive Techno

About Me



22 year old, Glasgow based producer, with a penchant for filth. one of the few people in the current scene not to use a laptop or ableton or reason. opting instead for purely hardware based synthesis for a rawer, dirtier sound. since the end of 2005 has played plenty of live set in ever larger venues, and better known club nights, including Inner City Acid in january with Si Begg, supporting Shy Child at the Arches and Alex Smoke @ the Reading Rooms
