Orlando Voorn comes from a hip hop background and is a pretty good hip hopm DJ
by all accounts (was it the DMC he won?)
The earliest techno records I heard by him were his early frequency stuff
('hey, hey, hey' is the only title I can remember off hand) which was big on
the early 90s rave scene, hard, kinda funky and very European sounding. Then of
course there were his collaborations with Juan and Blake Baxter (Basic
Bastard?), the famous 'Flash' by Fix and his label Slamdunk. My personal
favourites though are the 12 he did on Fragile and the double Baruka album that
came out on Buzz (Both of which I have and neither of which i can remember)
