Gleam
Born in the 80s. The best childhood years in the 90s, and here is the result.
I got interested in turntablism when I saw a DJ playing in a clothing store: Syndicate in Helsinki. I made my first beats with DOS based trackers, then moved to FL3.0 and got my first poor Korg ES sampler. At that time I collected a lot of musical information from 411VM skateboarding VHS tapes. Access to information was more difficult when there was no internet like today, so I visited a lot of record stores: Funkiest, KoolKatRecords, Lifesaver, Stupido, Free Record Shop.
I bought my first brand new Akai MPC2000XL sampler at the age of 17 in 2002 and since then I have dropped beats regularly. Now I've experienced everything in my life and the MPC has faithfully walked by my side. Nowadays I'm a hardware fanatic but I don't want to drown in the instruments, so I keep it small-scale. I like to focus and study one instrument at a time.
