Hi all. Longtime listener, first time caller. BT also did some famous tori amos remixes, if I recall correctly, and also "wrote" the soundtrack to the movie Go. He is big on his formal training; he's proud to not be a DJ to the point that he seems kind of disdainful of the practice.
Anyway, he recently kicked off a US tour for that "moment in still life" album and did a stop out here in Arizona last weekend. They made a big deal about how it was "live, no turntables," but it still sounded like mostly looped breakbeats to me (and there WAS some anonymous guy in the back spinning - heh). That, and a healthy dose of guitar rock during the last hour. I wasn't sure what to think, but my primary feeling as I left was that I was glad to have heard the local DJs who opened up for him :) Rob ---- Original Post: ---- He has had formal musical training at Berklee College but left and worked on sessions with Salt-N-Pepa and even did the incidental music for Dr Dre and Snoop Doggy Dogg's Murder Was The Case (true!) - all these unlikely things like that. He's been working with Peter Gabriel of late, I believe. Many see him as one of the progenitors of progressive house, as he spent time in the UK and was taken under the wing of Sasha and signed to Perfecto, which he later left. His music is going more down the breaktrance route at the moment. ------------------------ ===== __________________________________________________________________ rob kent | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://cc.kzoo.edu/~k96rk01 __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
