1990 - 1994:
Maurice's roots are in the begin 90's. When he was ten years old he got some tapes from his cousin. These tapes were from the houstemple "Parkzicht". He likes them very much. When the "Houseparty" mixes came out he was the first one to buy them. When he discovered the shop "Midtown" in his hometown the beginning of buying records was a fact. The first e.p. he bought was "Reanimator - Bigger and Bolder" on the K.N.O.R. label.

1994 - 1998:
After many records he got more interested in producing. He got an 8 bit monotracker from a guy at school. After some tracks he met some guys who want to do a live act with him. In the same group he teamed up with someone who produced with midi, a total new experience for him. He uses his studio and came up with some tracks. In 1998 he had some tracks finished and went to 80 Aum records who had also a shop in his hometown. 80 Aum like the tracks and a new label was born "Unknown Species Records". Dark Earth - Wisdom of the Grave was the first releases. Unfornately the hardcore market collapsed and there has never been a follow up.
