CLEAR THE FLOOR!!! Trippin bear on the loose!!

About Me

Watch out! Crazy brit here! Not really, I actually need to get out more! Spend most of my time making strange but wonderful trance and chillout tunes on my pc. Only really got into this properly in the last two years but I've been doin it with other hardware for about 8 years. Been in the british forces for 6 years, love the people and the travel! Like all sorts of music, anything with emotion, a catchy melody and that makes you want to move. I have utmost respect for people that can write or produce it, cos it certainly aint easy to do. Recently I've been looking into the UNBELIEVABLY time consuming art of 3D animation, try it yourself, you'll have a newfound respect for feature length films like shrek and toy story!Check out some of my dodgey remixes and mashups. http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewpro file&friendID=77899978

My Interests

I live in the north of Scotland, lovely place but ball withdrawingly cold! Like to travel which is lucky bein in the forces, shame about the less pleasant places they send you, but its given me the chance to go to cyprus, romania, belgium, amsterdam, tucson arizona, las vegas, cold lake canada, and various places with lots of sand and camels! Most of my free time I'm bein a geek and glued to my pc. Rarely online, just usin various software to make dance music, mainly trance. Could be considered lazy but most of my tracks are mashups or remixes of other songs and tunes, gives a good starting point and inspiration. My problem with this is that re hashing old songs seems to be wot everyone's doing know! take a twenty year old hit, make it dj friendly and flog it. seems like a step back to me but I'm just as guilty, plus you can never call it your own production. In a final attempt at going out at weekends without spending far too much, I've at last tried gettin jobs in bars and clubs DJing. My love for trance and dance led me to the decks about 6 years ago, wishing to become more creative, sequencing was the next step.

I'd like to meet:

TIJS VERWEST or TIESTO as he's more commonly known! FERRY CORSTEN, a dutch DJ. BRIAN TRANSEAU, the producer who got me into trance.

Music:

Lost Prophets, The Calling, Oasis, Greenday, Tiesto, Chicane, Super8. Will put in links to my stuff soon!

Books:

Dan Brown - Deception point. J R R Tolkien - Lord Of The Rings
