About Me
Everything started in the late eighties, 1987, in Geneva, with my first aciiidhouse party and encounter with chemicals :)) Since then, was a technodiletant but true clubber. Serious education happened with the mythical Hard parties (Usine, GE), Technoviews (GE) and the 2 weeks (yes, non stop...) Weetamix Festival at Le Garage between 93 and 95. Shyly tried my vinyls on friends' turntables. Became soon addicted. Bought my own decks in 1994.
Played then underground tek (detroit and stufflikethat), deep house, d 'n b, new electronica, new jazz downtempo, abstract, breakbeats, etc. never wanted to limit myself to a single genre, just to quality music.
