[ About the site ]
I firstly got into Techno music
a few years ago, after I had gone through that dreadfull heavymetal
stage, I started getting more and more into techno and all the
sub categories. At first I brought a WILD album, which was what
firstly started me off. I then moved on into some more progressive
house, and hardhouse albums, then eventually got into the awesome
Gatecrasher series. This is when I knew that the music for me
was Trance. Trance made me feel things, the music talked to
me, not only that, but it could make me feel different emotions.
It wasnt just put it on, and listen, it was more of a ritual
with me. I would auctually let the music effect me, the way
it should be listened to, and yeh I know what ya thinkin "this
guys on drugs, that fukin tripper!" but no, im fully drug
free (part from Alcohol ;-)), the only drug that I need is the
music itself.
One of the things that pisses me of alot, is nowadays the Techno
community gets alot of try hards, calling themselves ravers
and such. These people, are naive and senile. For many of these
people its just a craze, that they are going through, just going
with the pack, thinkin that saying they are into techno instantly
means they are cooler than others. But no music is superior
to another. All music is unique, and everyone has their own
tastes.
Remember to always stay true to the music you love! and AAAAAALWAYZ
remember the ravers moto:
P.L.U.R (peace, love, unity, respect).
Techno is one of the most universally
loved genres of music in the world. It makes you feel and lets
you become.
Succumb to the reality of the Techno universe.
[ Influences
]
My main influence would easily be the one and only Paul
Van Dyk. He is not only easily my favourite DJ and producer,
but my idol. I look up to him and the way he has shaped his
life. His style of music is like no other I have heard of. If
I had to say, who changed my outlook on music, this name would
easily come up. He influenced my mind, my body, and my soul.
Currently i listen to a vast majority of music. I try to broaden
my taste and am alwayz set to enjoy new musical experiences.
Trance and the electronica genre is easily my most favoured
style.
Other styles I mainly enjoy are: all things trance (hard, uplifting,
melodic etc)! breaks, dNb, progressive, house, HHC, hardhouse,
NRG, techno, Goa, Psy and most other styles that fall under
the electronica genre.
Other artists, producers and
DJ's that have influenced my music tastes are as follows (in
no particular order):
Armin Van Burren, Hybrid, Sasha, Judge Jules, Tiesto, Ferry
Corsten, Matt Darey, Nick Sentience, Scott Bond, Steve Blake,
John '00' Flemming, John Digweed, BT, Hiver & Hammer, Kai
Tracid, Cosmic Gate, Dumonde, Hyper, Orbital, Chicane, Oakenfold,
George Acosta, Antiloop, Scott Project, Thomas Trouble, Bravo
& Priest, Crystal Method, Sun Decade, BT, Flutlicht, S.H.O.K.K,
Miranda, Astral Projection, Leftfield, James Holden, CJ Boland.
To name a few...
