Profile: DJ, producer/remixer, digital editing & (2-channel) mastering with my home studio.
I am an enthusiast of house music, drum & bass, techno, downtempo... I love it all, really, and have a musical proclivity for emotional, moody music, regardless of genre. House is definitely my genre of choice; specifically quirky or moody tech house.
Favorite producers/remixers: Brett Johnson, David Duriez, Jerome Sydenham, DJ Duke, Marc Romboy, Joey Youngman, Danilo Vigorito, Jason Hodges, Roni Size, Ben Sage, Serge Santiago/Radio Slave, Signum (older stuff), Mylo, John Tejada, Matrix, Phonique, Jason Jinx/Joystick, LTJ Bukem, Armand Van Helden (older stuff), Sharam Jey / Three 'n One
Other non-EDM artists that I like: Stevie Wonder, Bad Astronaut, Joe Jackson, Muse, Bad Religion, Lagwagon, Jethro Tull, Elton John, Afterburner, Everclear, David Lanz, NOFX
I am willing to purchase nearly every release in my want list, but for LOW PRICES ONLY. If you're not shipping from the USA, then you can pretty much forget about it.
Also, if you need a mystery track identfied, and you suspect that your mystery could be a track appearing on a release that I have, just give a yell.

Jeremy Joshua - Make Dat Shit - 10-May-08 03:07 PM
Bumpy, shuffling house music to keep that head noddin for awhile. All three mixes are very solid but I have to give it up to Joshua's original mix with its rolling, dual-layered bassline, filtered synth leads, and even a few organ stabs for good measure... a true floor-stomper. A close second goes to Carter's mix which manipulates the vocals more and adds some quirky blips, buzzers and sound effects to the mix. Vinyl only ATM. Sick release!
Dieselboy - System_Upgrade - 29-Nov-07 01:58 PM
IMO, one of the best drum & bass mix CDs of all time. To me, this CD has stood the test of time -- still sounds pretty recent to this day. Hard to listen to this without getting amped. As commented above, it's not the most hardcore collection of tracks ever seen, but they are not of the soft variety either; to say so might be an understatement. Mixed quite flawlessly too!
In the world of mix-CDs, it's often easy to lose a grip on the "overall picture" -- or the journey -- that the DJ was trying to evince. System Upgrade starts off with a cold, mechanical into, followed by a very suiting, rigid "Mindscan" by Ram Trilogy. The energy is manifested throughout, and IMO proves to be pretty dynamic. I feel that this is album-like in that regard. Well put together. 5 from me.
Stephan Bodzin vs. Marc Romboy* - Telesto / Hydra - 11-Jul-07 12:31 AM
Telesto... wow... You'd be hard-pressed to find a track with such an intense melody/chord progression, yet it's nearly transparent. Deep, deep, deep chords form a melancholic vibe that matches the minimal rhythms. Top notch tech-house! Hydra doesn't do anything for me, although it is in the same realm as Telesto...
Mike Dominico / Mikee Deep - Red Dawn / Baby - 07-Jun-07 10:07 AM
Just a superb record! Can't stop listening to this one... The two songs are vastly different from another, yet both are deep and subduing. On side A we have a moody tech-house vibe going on which features an excellent bassline (maybe bass guitar) accompanying throbbing strings. A very moody and progressive chord progression takes awhile to ferment. Side B is a deep, funky, subduing house track that sounds as if it came straight from Strictly Rhythm's 1995 catalog. A seductive vocalic narration in the middle with "wild pitch" strings takes you straight back to those good old days of house music. I would HIGHLY recommend not sleeping on this record.
Chris Liebing - A, B, C, D EP Part 2 - 03-Jun-07 12:47 PM
C is a slow, grimy techno track pulsing at 125BPM. Tough, industrial strength baby. Both tracks are excellent, but D takes the prize here. Simple yet relentless tech-house rhythms lay on top of morphing soundscapes and effects. The repetitiveness grows on you and leaves you in a groove. Top-notch from Liebing.
