Petruccio Says:
I got into music like Kraftwerk and Jean Michel Jarre as a
child and progressed onto hardcore around 1990ish when I was introduced to some
amazing mix tapes and videos. The music back then along with early prodigy
stuff etc just blew me away. Instantly hooked I started buying tapes / vinyls /
videos / grabbing flyers and covering every square inch of my bedroom in them
and just wanted to be old enough to go out raving haha. Shortly after I was
DJing at illegal parties and small raves locally in 1993.
I started producing my own tracks around 2005 with artists
like Rampant, K-Complex, Sytronik and
instantly got hooked good and proper! Plus we had Instant success from the tracks we made back
then so it became an addiction to produce my own material and work up the
ladder.
I started producing with Mike Modulate aka Rocket Pimp a
year or two ago and we've really gelled well in the studio, bouncing ideas off
each other and pushing the boundaries with what we do on our tracks which has
lead us to doing well in the scene.
It has to be said the music, the vibe n atmosphere that is
second to none! I can't describe the feeling I get behind them decks rocking
crowds whether its a 100 or 2000+ its always great to perform.
Thank you to everyone who's supported me this far it
really means a lot.
