Music Style All forms of Electronica and Offshoots Musical Influences Orbital, U96, 808 State, Utah Saints,Early LA Style, Dust Brothers and Front 242 Similar Artists Some of My Techno/Trance tracks resemble Orbital, my Downtempo I'm not sure, And My Industrial FRONT 242 and the Dust Brothers Artist History My first expierence with electronic music was in the mid-80's when I walked into a local record shop (yes they sold vinyl records and still do) and the clerk was playing FRONT 242. I was so blown away by the sounds that I heard I bought the tape. and a couple others right away. the music I was into though were Hardcore Punk and Heavy Metal with some classic rock. These influences came mainly from my mom who was the closest thing I knew to be a hippie. So I took up the guitar like so many of my generation of men did. Then discovered my real love of the bass after hearing Cliff Burton belt out ""Anesthesia(Pulling Teeth)"". I played in several bands, mainly garage bands before 1990. Now officially Electronica had not hit Bakersfiled, CA (a small city of about 250,000 2 hours north of L.A.). so I was stuck with just FRONT 242 with a little of Mike Oldfield and Gorgio Moredor, till I joined the Army in 1990. I was shipped overseas in 1991 to Heidelberg Germany, where I really discovered what synth and analog and driving bass were. I frequented a club called Blue Fish in Heidelberg and caught glimpse of many of the live techno Producers/DJs using Korg and Roland synths and turntables hooked into a couple of little Macs and few other machines and it blew my mind once again to the sound they could make. I then got caught up in the wave and me and my friend Paul formed MD 20/20 ( after one night geting drunk on Mad Dog). We bought several pieces of equipment and started playing the Blue Fish and the Tech Clubs around Heidelberg and Mannheim. After leaving Germany in 1993 I came back to the states to start several projects including club and house DJing.

Nevertheless, it was a Trip of Trance worth taking. The synth work is rather pleasant sounding and consistent throughout the track. I felt myself drifting off into space in parts, especially when the synth overlay comes in. It is the 'emotional' theme of this track that I enjoyed the most. Good work! Rating: 4/5.
