My Email Interview

Name/Dj alias?

Could you play any instruments previously before you got your hands on some decks?

When did you first get into mixing and why?

Can you remember what the first vinyl you bought was?

Would a previous knowledge of written music helps with understanding music composition and mixing?

You did a course in music tech...do you think this is a necessity if you truly want to go into music production??

Do you have a favourite style?eg dubstep?

You have a few of your own tunes posted on your myspace...which i like by the way specially the dubstep wobbler...do you think you will concentrate more on making tunes?

Do you feel like you are becoming a master mixer or you think there's still alot to learn?

Do you think dnb, jungle, dubstep etc would struggle without underground radio?and do you think the scene would be as big in leeds if frequency wasn't around?

There are so many nights on now in leeds....Which do you recommend?? Tell me it's subdub..hahaha?

You've recently been playing on frequency 88.1..do you think you have gained exposure by playing? and would it've been harder to get your name around had 88.1 not been around?

Are you seeing any difference commercially in the dnb scene now to a few years ago?

I know that places, more in the centre of town, now have a growing amount of club go-ers that don't really understand the scene or the music...i know from speaking to others that at a rave this can cause friction and end up in fights which bring the whole feeling of the night down. Do you feel this is a problem?

Finally where do you see the scene going? Do you think if it did go completely commercial, loosing the underground element it would spoil the music? Obviously this would never happen seen as the spiritual home is The West Indian Centre which i can't see ever being fully mainstream..
