Long boring story, but I've got time to waste so here goes...
Always loved music, used to be into all kinds of stuff when I was a kid - rock, indie etc started playing guitar, really got into the blues, got good, played in a few bands, then met a new crew who were into dance music - this was late nineties so it was Mo' Wax trip hop kinda stuff - got a turntable cos you couldn't get that stuff on CD, started collecting records - Mo Wax, Ninja Tune, Alt Hip Hop - then started getting more into leftfield electronica - Warp, Rephlex, Planet Mu etc, by this time I had my first hundred or so records and was wondering what they might sound like if I put some together, so got myself some decks - we're at about year 2000 here - got real deep into that, then realised some of the stuff was so leftfield it was impossible to dance to, started getting more techno & house, and bit of DnB - I'd always loved breaks in the Squarepusher tracks I had (Also I'd been going out to DnB nights that my friends ran since way back - '97 or something), finally in about 2002 or something I got fully into DnB and aint looked back since...
Funny thing is most people who are into other types of music think I'm only into DnB, and that's all I know about... Probably know more about more types of music than they would ever expect...
