My name is Dan, and i go by the alter-name Hickyn, but preferably, call me by the obvious, otherwise i wont reply. Never call me "Daniel", it wont go down to well.
Firstly, i'd like to proudly announce that i love DnB, its more than music and its my lifestyle.
Secondly i'd like to state that i mix DnB/Jungle also, i dont mix anything else and its unlikely that i will mix anything else. If there will be anything else in teh horizon it will more than likely be Dubstep, but i havent got the patience to be slowing myself down, so yeah Me = DnB.
Mr Hicken, also known via various alias'( Hickyn, Hick, D.Hix(to the select few Hickmiester and Hickmarley) has been into music from the very start of his time. from a small age whacking and battering things to make it make noises, from lil drum things and noisy toys. although the people who actually know may kno how the full story has panned through out the last few years. Lets put it like this, He's been into hip-hop, Metal, rock, Trance,Dance And Drum n Bass, all of these as one was teh central listening ground to what has filtered through today. He's seen bands that most kids would love to see today, legends to say, for a time, it was good.
It all began(from memory) around about teh late 90's, when the breakthru of dance and oldskool bust open the doors to a new world, this is what was now, stuff spice girls, seriously, he remembers old skool prodigy, tape player walkmans, and flash trainers.at the time, the age of like 10+ he always knew that teh dance music would also be there. im gonna cut the krap and skip a few years,
*()()* sheeewuuuush! *()()*
right after selective choices and finally being drawn to the Real Music, Drum N Bass. from early jungle, going through time to enjoying whats important now, After going to many Raves around Birmingham, he then realised that he just doesnt hear Drum n Bass, he feels it, and with that feeling he wants to give something back to the people, from being a raver, to then potentially aiming to becoming a club DJ. Drum n Bass has give him that drive to push him to greater levels in mixing environment. DJ Hickyn has played a fair few parties, but is looking to push that boundry more.
You'll Catch DJ Hickyn floating around at the weekend, either in Birmingham city centre, or at any of the raves flowing around, thast a most deffinate, to Hickyn, Drum N Bass is more than music, its a lifestyle, and from experience nothing will stop him listening and mixing to DNB, thats a warning to any of you plonk ass indie bands, no is what he's saying, DNB Forever.
The Furture is ahead, what is to become of time? DJ Hickyn has an influx of CD's and mixes that will be available within this half of the year. also a new Upcoming DNB night which is also to be confirmed with promoters and event organisers. so.....
