Before I head towards the general forum...........

Just thought I'd pop in here and say brief howdy.*

I'm Ian, a bloke from just outside Glasgow that enjoys the harder/darker hardcore techno sound over most other types of music, although I do also enjoy other stuff and make a point of not limiting what I listen to.

Been messing around with music in various forms since I was about 10 years old (I'm now 29), but decided in early 2003 to put some of that accquired knowledge towards making something that I had never considered before - Hardcore Techno. I'd been a raver in the early 90's, moving up the tempo's as they soared over the last 15 or so years, so I knew what I wanted to make/hear when the time came.

After meeting the BMH Squad (Industrial Strength) a few times at gigs they were playing during 2004 and introducing myself, I sent a few tracks to one of the founder members, 'Adventurous' Adam. He immediately booked me to play a 30min PA at a New Year's Eve bash in his then hometown of Blackpool (UK) along with some well known DJ's/live acts (Al Twisted, Rob Da Rhythm, Subhuman Disorder, and a few more but my memory isn't great, sorry). After that, I had a mass of bookings all over the UK, playing live repeatedly in Glasgow, Edinburgh, Aberdeen, Liverpool, Durham City, Rosyth for some well known events playing alongside some of my favourite acts: The Outside Agency, Dolphin, Matt Green, Deathmachine, Fracture 4, Infared, DJ UEP, Trailer Park Trash (now just 'Trash' I think), Phonofrantic, The TerrorisT, Strontium and many many more.

Anyway, enough rambling, if you want to find out more get me on myspace - see you on the boards folks!


* It was a brief one, but I got stoned & wrote a fuckin' essay. Oh well.............
