I'm a fan of all kinds of music, but my true love is electronic music. Everything from Broken Beat/Lounge/Downtempo/Nu-Jazz to Atmospheric Drum & Bass to Deep House to Progressive House/Breaks to Nu-Breaks. Have been spinning records since about 93. I grew up (clubwise) in the Orlando, FL rave scene of the early 90's. In those days for me it was mostly all about breakbeats. The Abyss,Aahz & Firestone were some of the clubs we frequented at that time. Due to the craziness of the scene at that time, I eventually felt that I needed to step away from not only the scene but much of electronic music as well. During that somewhat extended hiatus from dance music I really developed a love for Jazz music. I learned to appreciate the elegance of Jazz, a quality that I find is quite unique to that particular artform.
Eventually my love for dance music led me to start checking out club music once again. This time around however, my new found love of Jazz led me toward the mellower side of electronic music, and particularly the heavily Jazz influenced sounds of House and Nu-Jazz. Approaching music from a more open mind than I had during my early clubbing years allowed me to be open to House rhythms whereas I had previously been very closed to the House sound. In the words of Sunshine Jones, "It uuhh, took me a little longer to let House seep in, but, you know..when I did ahh...I fell in loooove!". Thats certainly not to say that I don't love all kinds of electronic music, but I would say that, for me, the root of it all is House.
So my stations are an attempt to show you exactly the kinds of electronic music that I have come to love. I'm enjoying using this little Pandora toy I've found and I am constantly trying to fine tune my channels to play only songs in the specific genres that I intend for the channels to be. Some are still a work in progress, but I hope that you will enjoy whatever channel of mine you choose as they are all sounds that I have come
