started back in school listening to the abstract dance show with colin dale and colin jackson on kiss FM im guessing 89 90, ath that time I was also listening to Public Enemy and BDP, It wasn't untill a few years later (about 96) that I went to my first techno party, saw all these people AveinIt on the dace floor, and heard it through a rig rather than my home stereo. The energy just jumped out of the speakers and pulled me in. Have been into techno from then on. I have made some very good mates through the techno , it's prob the most infulentual thing on my life.
