Never as a youngster in a million years did I ever think I'd be mixing dance tunes .....My love was ( still is a bit ) heavy rock / thrash metal . Seen em all from AC/DC to ZZ Top , it all changed seeing Metallica in 84 tho , then a few years later Slayer. The energy was addictive . Used to make compilation tapes for my friends . It wasn't until attending an Ozric Tentacles concert did it all change again. It was in the very early start to the 90's. Eat Static were support , I witnessed a concert crowd mutate into a full blown dance event , when Static came on. Now , prior my rock / metal days, as a kid , I was brought up on the likes of Bowie , Queen , Donna Summer 10cc , disco and then ( the daddy ) Jean Michelle Jarre . I think those seeds sown as a youngster were suddenly awakened, they surpassed my love of heavy rock that night on the dance floor with Eat Static having me dancing like a loon. I was hooked . I found my groove from moshing and headbanging to dancing non stop . No longer angry . From then on I discovered Goa / Psy trance. , visited all manner of hedonistic parties. The parties expanded, likes of Megadog .Return To the source, Otherworld , Pendragon , Earth dance ect ect ...that worm grew . So , as I always loved making mix rock tapes I decided to try ( still trying ) mixing Goa and Psy trance - starting with a pair of Sony discman's onto an old tape deck ! The rest is history . My efforts may not be brilliant , but if at least one of my attempts at mixing catches the ear then its all good . I'm humbled to be able to be given the opportunity to try and mix and share such wonderful , energetic shamanic dance tunes and totally besotted by this genre's sound nearly 30 yrs on . Main flight deck ( spare bedroom static set up ) is made up of Numark Mixstream Pro Go , 4 Pioneer cdj 400's. a djm 800 mixer , recording MP3' or CD's onto a Howler Mp3 recorder , no pc. I also occasionally use a Numark Mixdesk Express in the garden to my neighbour's displeasure. All these systems I've used have now taken a backseat - the Numark Mixstream Pro Go currently has my attention . On purchasing a 2nd hand set I'm able with the likes of JBL party go speakers echoing the garden when the weather permits. No matter what system tho , I still refuse to use any corrective programs or editing of any kind on any set up , so what you hear is totally 100% real, mistakes included , first off mixing -RAW , what you hear is exactly as in the moment BUT thats my own choice. I just hope my efforts tickle the space between your ears . GOA / PSY TRANCE always has , and always will be my altar , my religion . BOOMSHANKA! Love n peace My name is Oz - Sickrabbit
