I made the breakbeats and dnb mostly before dubstep rattled my cage.
Now I am on the ultimate quest to find mind altering freqs...

Metal about ooh, 19 years back. Then into grunge, noise, jagged dissonant business - Unsane, Sonic Youth, and loads of Amphetamine Reptile bands.

Sold up rock stuff, bought drum machine to tinker around with - had an old boss effects rack so started dubbing up the drums and made some wierd technoey business.

Bought a sampler and started making hip hop beats, moved into attempting jungle (badly) and then after discovering El-B and Tempa started going more for garage beats. And then ended up here, which is cool cause it's such an open-ended genre

when I was a bairn I was in death metal bands then I started making sonic youth type stuff on my own. I used to make d+b with craggz from craggz and parallel forces for about 7 years the last few years Ive just been making much slower more minimal stuff and a bit of ambient and techno.

oo helios, sonic youth, melvins, dinosaur, and big black were all about 8th-9th grade for me.

grew up early on punk rock... minor threat, black flag, dk, 80's stuff. by middle school started listening to post-punk, post hardcore, experimental rockish type stuff. also started playing jazz in school and listening to a little hip hop. early highschool got into more hip hop, and experimental noise stuff. 10th-11th grade met some ravers, was intrigued, but found out trance was pretty disgusting. turned off by the excessive drug use. found some drum n bass that i dug, but seemed a bit formulaic most of it. immidiately after got too into kid 606 and similar things, discovered minimal techno/house flavors. sort of back tracked my way into dub and early jungle. then i heard some neato dubstep and bam.
i attempted making those genres, as i listened to them.

i was deep into lables like touch&go, skin graft, dischord and generally postrock and noise stuff. then found a cd compilation called "dub - original bass culture" for 2€ at a local store. at the same time a friend introduced me to dancehall reggae and a serious passion began. bought my first set of decks and spend enormous amounts of money on 45s.

my first steps in production were some reggae refixes. some of them are still available on our website, if anyone's interested

I was originally a guitarist in a psychedelic thrash/grunge band then began using a drum machine as a metronome and discovered that programming beats was far more fun than playing in a band. This led to the making of bangin' 303 606 acid techno and experimenting with 'low speed' DJing in the backrooms at Zero Gravity, Club Dog and Mega Dog events. On discovering the joys of sampling and sequencing with an SU10 and Atari ST i became increasingly breakbeat orientated.
I now make house, techno, breakbeat, D'n'B, Dub, anything that feels right at the time.
I'm currently putting together a compilation of my beatless stuff, there is a mix up if you fancy having a listen.
Oh, and while i'm at it a mix of my breaks too.
Most of my old stuff is up on my lefthandpath site too.

'Spekt to you all
