When did you get introduced to the scene? NOT when you started partying constantly.
As soon as I turned 18 I was exposed to the scene by a friend name stephanie back from my home town. The scene was all I knew other than the normal beach partyin I did back then, I am 25 now and still love the scene.
Tim sent to me in outlook: "I would also like to note some of the thing's you say are terroristic and very un-american."
until freshman year of college i thought the scene revolved around people gathering in warehouses and listening to "barbie girl" over and over again :sadblue:
I used to sneak in to Fever when i was like 14, 15. One of the guys who worked the door lived right up the street from me.

I first started listening to EDM when some of my friends in HS used to pump drum and bass just to see how cool their car stereos sounded.... eventually, I found out about parties and went to a couple house/field parties when I was 17 or so.... then in college I got back into it when I was 19 and my older friend Mark got me listening to Roger Sanches, Scott Henry, and Sasha... then I went to a couple parties up at PSU and got hooked.

i was 14..my cousin kept talkin about these "rave" things in Texas. Id watch her get all dressed up on the weekends..lookin all kandi like with the wig..the saran wrap outfits..the whole deal.
She brought me back a cd she got at some party from some local dj and the following weekend i was off to my first party. Needless to say it was a life changing experience.
when i was a young kid i rememer loving 'money for nothing' by dire straights, it had a pretty sick synth-line (hence my screenname/handle).
when i was 10 killer instinct came out and i got a copy of the soundtrack that came with it, and a couple of months later i bought 'radikal tekno vol. 1' when i was in montana (it had 'sesame's treat' and '2 little boys' on it)
i spent the next 4 years collecting all sorts of dance club mixes and edm cds, but i never knew about a scene until i watched 'sonic empire' by westbam on the old MTV AMP show.
once i knew there were others out there like me i sought out the clubs and had my rents take me to my first party at liquid groove in hagerstown when i was 14. after that i went to a few sporadic parties but it wasnt till i was 16 that i went to organize, also in hagerstown, where i met chico and really got into it.
I started when I was 18, but at the time i was the only one of my friends that liked EDM, so i started at Glow, went to a few parties, got turned away at the door for having tennis shoes on or baggy pants, etc. then almost a year later I found out about Edge and Buzz, and haven't stopped since.![]()
Gone for good
I used to hang out at a tattoo shop my cousin worked at in Triangel (Skyline) There were a few people that worked there that went out a lo. I was introduced to to the sounds of House music and Drum & Bass through this shop. My first party was at Tracks.
I was 15, living in Hong Kong as an exchange student ('98-'99). We were young and dumb, excited about being able to drink at bars. Then one day I discovered a place called CE Top, 5 floors of EDM, but mostly d'n'b. Kind of a very small, HK size nation! I heard now it's been taken over by the triads... But, anyway... I met a d'n'b dj there who totally got me into the scene there, free parties and all. At my first actual "rave" I saw 4hero and since then I've been all about the scene. Unfortunately for me, I was from Kansas and when I got back the edm scene was just starting to get popular (read "drugs" were getting popular and becoming mainstream) and I was only 16 so I couldn't get into a lot of places. The underground scene was practically destroyed already so until I came to DC, I couldn't enjoy the music outside of my house and car (and the small parties we used to have). :sadblue:
i started listening to EDM before i actually got "into" the "scene", that was when my cousin :affection: brought me home a demo cd titled Princess from club baja. i didnt actually go to any parties/clubs til winter/spring 2002
oh.
awwww i love Chico....hes the best!!Originally posted by Synthetikid
