"I'm a sound manipulation expert. Specializing in hazardous low frequencies and abnormal drum patterns. From 3rd grade thru 9th grade I played drums in the school band & orchestra. In 1982 I got my first drum machine, Synsonics Drums from the mall and a yamaha cs01 synth (at this time Radio Shack sold Moog keyboards). I produced electro-breaker tracks (egyptian lover style) and later hip hop with Brooklyn mc Silkski (currently with WuTang). I also spun wax for KDAY as part of the High Energy Mixmasters; we would go to high schools and broadcast live. My first dj battle was against Joe Cooley...he fukked me up. I also battled Tony A. (HI-C's dj) at a Carson event my friends and I did. >>>>In 1990 I discovered techno imports and early UK jungle. To me early jungle was an extension of L.A. style electro and I quickly got into the sound. Since then the progression of Jungle music never fails to amaze me. I'm grateful to have been the founding father of junglizm here in L.A. (along with CRS and Oscar da Grouch) and to be able to watch the new talent that emerges in this city is what life is about.........stand by for sonic warfare."

Albert started on his musical path back in 1989, when he got his first hip-hop tape ever, which led him to be an avid music fan for life. It wasn't until 1992 that a friend of his introduced him into what was then the early Hardcore Breakbeat scene. This techno music was something so new, but had the familiar breaks of Hip-Hop in it that he instantly loved it. It wasn't until 1995 that he heard a Drum and Bass remix of a hardcore song that he instantly got chills up his spine and knew what he was going to do. Jungle music back then was so fresh and new that he had to find out more about it. So, he decided to buy a sampler and drum machine in late 1997 and try and figure out how to make those crazy sounds. In 1999, He moved back out to Los Angeles where he was originally from. Here, he fell back in love with Jungle music. It was here where he met his friend Gio that got him into being a DJ. Albert never thought of DJing, just the production side of things, but in the Jungle/DnB world, you almost have to be a DJ to get your songs out there. So, he worked in the lab up until 2002 and was now ready to DJ out for live audiences. The Dubstep bug didn't bite until late 2005 when he heard some dark tunes with a Drum and Bass twist. He was hooked instantly. Teaming up with 6Blocc (aka R.A.W./BBoy-3000), who was also getting attracted to Dubstep, they started to harness their love of DnB, Hip-Hop, Dub/Reggae, Funk, Electro and ALL types of music into their version of Dubstep. Under the moniker HOODZ, Tribe UK signed them for their Dubstep tune "Kong". With more vinyl releases on the way, 2007 is the year to watch out for big things from U-Ome and HOODZ.
