About Me

Born in 1983, lived in various locations around Hertforshire, have been heavily into music scene since the age of about 10 or 11. first ever live gig- Guns n roses@milton keynes when i was about 11! stole some of my older bro's rave and trance tapes around this time and started liking alsorts of dance. got some decks when i was 13 couldn't even beat mix for a while! started mixing house and big beat, then got into trance, hard house, techno, progressive etc, got bored with the scene at the time so moved on to breakbeat and drum n bass/Jungle, overdid it with the d'n'b a bit but still love it! Did some end of year parties at school and some birthdays along with my best mate. Had many a night out in london at peach, bar rumba, cargo, the end, brixton academy, the list goes on. became interested in production at school doing music technology and then a few years later started having a fiddle on Reason and cutting samples on soundforge. it's somehow taken until now to start getting something done, Whether it was due to faulty software, faulty hardware, or just a plain lack of both! Not to mention pure idleness ;-) I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)
