Benton (UK)1 upcoming event
How long have you been producing / DJing? I've been producing since 2007/2008 making jungle, grime, electro, house, that kind of stuff. I only properly got on it and took it seriously since I got my Mac last year. I've been DJing since 2009 when me, Unitz and our mate Luke started Subspotting in the town where we live. Still to this day I don't own a pair of decks! Need to invest really... How did you get into the music in the first place? Well, I've always been into music. I remember listening to old hardcore tapes and being about nine or something buying a pair of old Gemini decks. I had no idea what I was doing with them but I remember having a copy of Krust's Jazz Note, my mum hated me for constantly playing it! Back in school I was always getting in trouble for having one headphone in my ear listening to jungle tape packs. I remember hearing Wot's My Code's Dubplate on a Congo Natty tape and I never knew what the tune was but I knew exactly where in the tape it was and it got rinsed! I found it a couple years later and it's still a favourite to this day! So I guess it's just from music being an everyday part of my life since I was young. What music are you currently feeling both in and outside of dubstep? I've been listening to a lot of 'future garage' 2steppy kinda vibes recently, artists like Synkro, Dark Sky, Phaeleh, Pariah and, obviously, Burial. I've also been listening to lots of Autonomic stuff. I love sitting down and changing up the tempo now and again…
