| I grew up with electronic music being played in my home occasionally. Future Sound of London and Jarre were some of the stuff being played. Around 99' when I started getting really interested in music, I wanted to explore trance and stuff like that. I remember downloading various livesets from Kazaa with my friend. Good times! |

| Pingers + Dancing at highschool parties. I'd listened to a little of it prior to that, but never really appreciated EDM as a whole until I started actually dancing to it. Started out by downloading tracks I'd heard while out (I had Sandstorm stuck in my head for 2 - 3 months before I figured out what it was called and DLed it, so it was my search for that and similar music, Cosmic Gate etc, that lead me onto further trance and edm in general). Also well deserved thanks to DI.FM and streamripper. |

My brother got me hooked when he gave me: Chicane - Live From Palladium
I would play starcraft and counterstrike listening to that set, and eventually just branched from there. |

lol!!! yep...i remember those three for sure, haha
mp3s, under 21 clubs and myself as a music composer are the main influences for me. i shall admit eurodance is a part of what drew me in. i was always interested in electronic music. in the under 21 clubs, i was exposed to music like pvd, tiesto, corsten, dj sammy and dj encore (sadly, i admit i used to listen to them!), green court, and some other stuff. it was just so nice to go to a place where edm was actually played! i was sick of just hearing the same standard pop on the radio.
mp3s...thank the lord for shawn fanning and napster. i couldn't get enough edm. i was listening to all types...aphrodite, aphex twin, alec empire, tiesto, corsten, etc. this was around 2001.
after 2001 on... my taste expanded and i grew out of the dj sammy type of stuff and i just keep on finding out more and more artists today and i'm loving it. 2003 on i was finding out about SO MUCH....tracklistings and stuff like this...if you were to look at compiled cds and my mp3s on my hard drive you would know that i ahve exposed myself to plenty of music.
i listen to lots of genres. the funny thing is i grew up listening to my old school r&b and rap whenever i was around my sister (she loved that music) and my mom loved calypso (she's from barbados). my friends mainly like radio stuff and somehow my music taste has been drastically different! i'm only 21, so i haven't had the luxury on being in on edm from the 80s or early early 90s like some on here, but i look for good music in any era and i can say that i have caught up a LOT. |

| I got bored of rap music back in 2000 and borrowed a Seb Fontaine cd from a good friend. It took me a while to really understand the music and what was so good about music without lyrics. As it turns out though, I was mostly listening to rap music for the productions and not the lyrics. So many of my old rap and hip hop cd's have awesome melodic productions. I only really keyed in on the melodies of each track and never really the words. This is why I like trance and progressive so much. |

| i have my brother to thank for it really - as a youth i listened to the likes of sash and alice deejay - i knew then i liked the dance sound - i used to listen to a track in the car chicane 'offshore' it used to give me butterflies everytime i heard it - then i listened to an oakenfold cream resident cd and heard y traxx 'mysteryland' i remember thinking it was the most beautiful thing id ever heard then i heard BT- 'flaming june' after that i got into armin - tiesto - van dyk - pretty quickly - then i listened to bedrock - mixed by jimmy van m- i found i also loved prog - JAMES HOLDEN - digweed - sasha etc. I now favour the swedish house mafia with there element of prog melodies/beats and trance - esque synths. |
