Yo , just seen this thread - cheers ..
and thought I should say this
not exactly true this OG thing, all those artists named in that comment were fully operational when I was still just messing around doing parties DJing and getting started doing electronic trax,.. it is true I been messing making tapes and fucking with pedals and drum machines and guitars etc since I was a kid. I fucked Hull off and went to Leeds & met doyobi and then through them met skam etc around 97-98 . I would be the first to shout out AE (and the Gescom stuff) , show love and acknowledge their influence - not just in terms of their stuff, but also via their generous sharing of loads of other amazing stuff through Dj mixes and so on . Some of the best shit ever yes.
Respect where its due
there's fucking loads of Djs and artists & things that have massive importance to me re: what I'm up to - Alex Doyobi (he showed me tracker software that got me on this long tangent in the first place) , snd, SVVN, ed, Rian, Kohei, Chris D, Rich NMB, Made, Phil W, Sean Dorris, Lee Trek, Nok1, Satoshi, Spoils, Spaf (RIP).. loads of hiphop, (EL Producto, RZA, Bomb Squad, Ultramags, etc etc etc) metal , jungle , soundtracks, weird rock shit and so on and so on and so on
ANNYYWAY
just wanted to air this , didn't feel right having disinfo floating about that could get misconstrued, keep it real etc
