Influences
Bands like:
Miss May I, Bury Tomorrow, BFMV, Slipknot, Issues, While She sleeps,
With one last breath, Korn, Limp Bizkett, Foo Fighters, RHCP, FOB,
The Ghost inside.
I could go on for hours. Basically, went through stages:
Light / Alt rock -> Rock / Heavy rock -> Hardcore / Heavy metal ->
Post-Hardcore -> Electronic Rock / Heavy Dubstep -> Heavy DnB ->
Heavy Rock/Metal / Best music ever.
Then I slowly stopped listening to heavy band based material.
I always used to dislike hypes such as Skrillex back in 2012 and whatever.
But from 2012-2014 Electronic music took over my life.
Sub Focus, Nero, Skrillex, Flux Pavillion, Loadstar, Delta Heavy,
Camo & Crooked, Kill the Noise, Brillz, Herobust, Instant Party!, Zomboy, Knife Party, Baauer, Bro Safari, Disclosure, Naughty Boy.
So damn many.
Peaked at Reading Festival 2013 - Perfect mixture of all my favourite music, heavy, electronic, even chill stuff (e.g Imagine Dragons).
2015: House - Deep house - *Tropical house*, Summer house - Tech house - Slowly edged towards Drumstep / Drum n Bass.
Too many names to name. Got a bit deep.
2016: EVERYTHING ELECTRONIC.
Literally, all the names I have mentioned. So many more. All fantastic artists, creating plenty of opportunity for remixes from smaller artists.
I couldn't name how many artists I know songs of. But it's not too many :)
2017 - I've finally got my sound.
Back on the drum kit after a good 2 years of very little practice. Still have my style. Still can jam to any vibe that I used to know. Unbelievable really
