I remember taking my cassette tape of Kraftwerk's Computer World to class in the 1st grade for show and tell and all the kids in the class thought I was weird. My only exposure to music was through my uncle's cassettes and the odd tune I would hear on the radio growing up. In '91 I got to hear Jeff Mills play in Dallas. Finding the music was difficult since I never saw it in any shops near my house. And I basically discovered it the next year in '92 when I bought my first 12" single (The Punisher on UR) from a local shop in another suburb after hearing it on the radio on a Saturday night mix show. After buying that first record, I would take the bus once a week to the record shop to get "f*cked up" and I am still addicted to this day :P
great to hear everyone's stories on how they got hooked on this music! minto ===== down low music http://downlowmusic.org UPCOMING '04 East Island vs The Moderator dL011 OUT NOW Iridite Productions "The Acceptable Face of Elitist Techno" dL012 MAR __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
