Ez all, for all those who r slightly interested :-
My name is Tony im a PC/IT/Network Engineer And Web Designer & 31 years old now but u don't wanna know all about that do you so...
I started practising on the decks in 91 / 92 @ the age of 14 on a set of old and brutal Sound Lab beltdrive's, I Was given the name MERLIN by my mates as I was into magic in a big way back then - so it stuck. I started in the House scene and played @ many pubs / clubs around Leicester, Nottingham, Derby & Loughborough.
It wasn't till a few years later I was kindly introduced to Underground Hardcore music by my mate Dave Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!
WOW did it convert me straight away I became obsessed with the music, after listening to heavy rock and house in my earlier years, I started listening to HardCore everywhere I went. I started buying HC vinyl by the shed loads, My house records have now got spiders and dust all over them.
I loved it so much I started raving as soon as I looked old enough to get past the bouncers and up went my life better than anything I'd ever experienced.
My home became the Die Electric Club DIEHARD, I raved @ the place on many many Friday nights. one after another after another and so on. I spent hours and hours on the dance floors (bouncy bouncy spring loaded, well it felt like it ha-ha-ha) and hour after hour stood by the old scaffolding rig watching dj's + the scratch master himself SY, need I have said his name!!!.
Even though diehard was my favourite club I still managed to-do many Hardcore Heaven's - Helter Skelter's @ The original And unbeatable Sanctuary & Rollers Arena's @ Milton Keynes & Dreamscape's @ Shepton Mallet Bristol, And so on and on, All over the country cause u know the score "its pedal to the floor for the mutha fu*%kin Ardcore".
Well after seeing how good and talented the Hardcore DJ's in the scene were I thought I best bury myself in my trusty 1210's and Technics mixer (well Vestax Pcv275 now) for many many hours and many many years. I have ALWAYS used 1210's and never CD's, I really love scratching and want to further my knowledge as it's limited, finally I play for free & just for the love of it and that's forever!
And so I'll stop boring you now just to say......
Nobody can take HARDCORE MUSIC AWAY FROM ME OR YOU!!!
Bye For Now, And Hope To See You Soon.
