Future Bound

Real Name:
Brendan Collins, Paul Maker, Alan Ryan & John Collinson
Profile:
Future Bound existed as a four man unit for only a few releases. Sorrow/Liquid Groove, Ephemeris/Blue Mist.
Also for the remix of Digital's track Spacefunk.
Tunduska is the alias of Brendan Collins and not that of the original line up.


Born and bred in Liverpool, the cultural and musical epicentre of the North of England, Futurebound's route to the top of his profession reads like a concise history of dance music. After the first illegal raves he attended in 1989, Futurebound left behind a potential career in football to pursue his passion for dance music, with DJs such as Fabio,Grooverider, Mickey Finn & Top Buzz serving as early influences.
From this, Futurebound secured a home town residency in 1991, warming up for the likes of Carl Cox, Grooverider and Sasha, his first real break into DJing. Steadily the emerging influence of breakbeats grew on Futurebound, leading him to book names such as LTJ Bukem, Goldie, Ray Keith and 4 Hero for his own parties in the early nineties, and later lead him to start the notorious X events in 1999, some of which still rank as some of most important parties in Liverpools clubbing history.
His skills didnt just stop with DJing and promotion either. Since 1993 Futurebound has been stamping his distinctive, rolling, peak time sounds on vinyl, initially with local producers. Inevitably however, more high - profile production and remix collaborations followed with the likes of J Majik, Matrix, Digital & Adam F.
