Rohith
During school years, Jungle and Drum and Bass were the first sounds that caught Rohith’s attention. He had been given a Nicky Blackmarket tape which one of his friends had stolen from their older brother’s beloved tape-pack collection. This is where he first heard ‘Champion Sound’ by Q-project, the song which started a life long affair with moody tones.
When he started college he began to connect with many genres and artists of the musical spectrum, from Pink Floyd to the Wu Tang Clan. He was later introduced to clubbing by an older friend who took him to Turnmills for his 18th birthday. This started a yearning for going to London and experiencing new music, and it was when he saw Erol Alkan tear up the dancefloor that he was truly inspired to take up mixing. Him and a friend split the cost of a cheap pair of second hand turntables- and so began a summer of Electro. As the electro scene began to deteriorate as a victim of its own success, his ears had already began moving to a more minimal sound, and it was when he was taken to Londons infamous Bogged-Out daytime party that he cemented his passion for pulsating minimal techno. He soon became a follower of the cerebral sound of James Holden, and his Border Community parties at the legendary club, The End (R.I.P.). This amalgamation of influences and experiences has resulted in a set style that is ever evolving and difficult to pigeon hole into just ‘Techno’.
