OK, I've been lurking on here for ages and rarely get time to post, so
here goes;
Introducing:
Name: Simon Pascoe
Age: 37
Place I live: Hitchin, a small town in the middle of nowhere, 30 miles
from London.
Born: Watford, just outside of London, put me off football for life.
Job: Unix Systems Analyst
Favourite toy: Rel Strata III subwoofer.
Into Electronic Music: In the '70s when I was a kid, my Dad was a HiFi
salesman. One of his colleagues leant him a tape called Autobahn by some
weird German group - I was hooked from the start. Dabbled with Jazz funk
and dub in my early teens, and then went through early electro and
house. Got into the 313 sound when I heard Model 500 "Off To Battle" on
a compilation, and subsequently rushed out and bought the new (at the
time) "Techno: The New Dance Sound Of Detroit" compilation on Kool Kat.
Somehow lost touch with most of the 313 output for most of the early
90's, but got back into it again properly around '96. These days trying
to write my own music, but drowning under a heavy dayjob at the moment.
Webpage: Not yet ... on a very long to-do list.
Fave Club: Plastic People - the first time Carl Craig played on that
soundsystem, in the sweetspot, with all of the usual UK 313 suspects in
the crowd. Very special :-D
