time for the fat boys...... name : paul also known as that gorgeous 'chunky' slap head from innercity. age : 31 born : leeds lived in cyprus, germany and southern england before settling again in leeds many years ago. work : run yorkshire's finest.
djing since 1989 but introduced to electronic music at a very early age via my father's obsession with kraftwerk, tangerine dream, brian eno etc and him building his own synths. i'm still forced to listen to his music now and he's 55. a true pioneer. though he's a bit obsessed with trance music. music - yazoo, human league,depeche mode, simple minds to the current nu wave obsession - adult, gigolos, lazergun, bpitch etc. into pretty much all techno styles from planet e to downwards. bit of a booty/ghetto obsession too. collection - close to 10,000 at one point though more like 1000 now. had to make room for my 2 kids. 1 record i never got and still desperately want is.... MANTRAX on r&s records, only released as promo i think. 8 years now trying to get this record. someone must have it? today's favourites..... that detrechno double pack that i never remember the name of that includes 'back to the future' and 'sole waves'. best electro ever. apart from maybe - mole people's luv luv lik lik ron trent - altered states, never get bored of that record. morgan - flowerchild, always gets the floor moving surgeon/regis - british murder boys. best downwards yet. new gary martin on teknotika, forgot title. theo parish - dirty rhodes. f***in awesome. to say i run a record shop i'm very poor remembering titles! memorable moments - first time i went to leeds' Warehouse in 89. i lost my job 3 months later!, life changing. jeff mills @ orbit in 93. life changing again. tribal gathering with kraftwerk and the detroit tent. (terence parker dropping 'ring my bell' at 5 in the afternoon and watching the tent empty was pretty funny) bumping into richie hawtin in the happy hardcore tent at tribal was a shock too. dj bone coming to play for us in leeds to around 30 people 2 years ago and playing the best detroit set i ever heard. UK 313'ers where were you? best ever would have to be getting off with miss kitten at orbit though last year, hang on, that didn't actually happen. bugger. loves - my girlfriend and 2 kids. - hong kong cinema, total madness. also partial to watching sweaty half naked teenage girls losing it on the dancefloor to fierce techno. hates - dj's who feel the need to "take you on a journey" - shut up garnier and just play the bloody records. people who take this all too seriously. it's dance music for fuck's sake. have fun. biggest regret - not buying studio equipment in 92 and going on holiday to spain instead and blowing all my money. 313 - about 2 years on and off. tend to say stupid things without thinking and get flamed for days, usually after a few drinks. have a good weekend. paul al Message ----- From: W Lammerts <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: 313 <313@hyperreal.org> Sent: Saturday, February 02, 2002 2:13 PM Subject: Re: [313] about the members > Now it's time for all the tall people out there! > > Name: Wibo > > Also known as: that tall dutch dude with the glasses > > Age: about 31, Taurus > > Born: Utrecht, the Netherlands > > Living in: Utrecht > > Work: IT-Specialist at ING Barings Bank HQ, Amsterdam > > NonWork: Chief Extreme Sonic Experimentations Officer for > TechnoTourist.org, producing under the DeTour monicker with John C.(non > 313er) > > DJing: since 1990.
