About me:
I am a 25 year old breakbeat dj. I currently host a show called midwest breaks on www.ibreaks.co.uk Sundays 2-4pm cantral time or 8-10pm gmt. My name is David or Dj derve and i am from Missouri, in a town of 40,000 about 100 miles south of St. Louis. I have been mixing records for four years now. It started as I grew ill of writing poetry when I was upset. I then quit writing and started spinning. This helped me vent frustration into beats and eventually very dark breakbeats. Scince I have started listening to electronic music I have been exposed to mostly ragga jungle, uk jungle, and breaks. Most of my friends played jungle so i wanted to do something different. So my freind dj reperkushin, a ragga jungle dj showed me the ropes to spinning records. I started playing funky florida breaks and began hearing breaks with a darker side. Once I had discovered nuskool breaks the funk was left behind. Now my tracks I spin are primarly dark and aggressive. I put on a bi-monthly event in cape and we span most genre's. There isn't really a scene here so I started the riverfront beatz show for some entertainment for our area. These nights have gone over very well and intrest is slowly increasing. I often got my tracks from listening to ibreaks and started throwin down the darkest tracks i could get my hands on. And now I have the oppurtunity to share my sound along with my favorite breaks artisits in the area like tony foo yong, andy b, spacehead, ready, and more to come with all of you on Sundays 8-10 Gmt. So tune in to hear our beats as we show you how we get down. My major influences are- aquasky, masterblaster, baobinga, ed 209, factor-e, freestylers, mutiny, quest, j-bass, breakfastaz, autobots, evil nine, Ils, control z, the shamen, backdraft, odissi, apex twin, raw, general mallice, ltj bukem and mc conrad, dj fixx, rick west, and paul van dyk.
