I've been a DJ since I was 16, playing at various raves and clubs, the most illustrious of which was a couple of spots at Diehard @ the Dielectric club in Leicester. I don't do much these days as I have other things to worry about now, but I still do the odd gig here and there, and I still make it to the occasional rave.

As well as the DJ'ing, it didn't take me long to suss out how to put my own stuff together - being a bit of a techie - and so I've been making tunez as well, since around the age of 20 (a long time ago!) Which was a lot more difficult and far less sophisticated back then than it is today, I might add!!

Anyway... these are my tunez.

The first era was on a 486 using Modedit, producing Amiga-style MODs.

I then progressed to an AWE32 soundcard and a MIDI sequencer (MIDI Orchestrator Pro) for the second era.

For the third era I flirted with Acid Pro and recall playing around with AudioMulch a lot.

Then there was nothing for quite a while, until I suddenly remembered that there was a reason I started working like a madman all those years ago...

The fourth era was born when I went out and purchased a Yamaha MO6 - finally I owned a synth workstation.

And not content with that, the fifth era sees me having migrated to Cubase and a stack of VSTs - usually in preference to the MO6, mostly because Total Recall doesn't work so well :(

As you've probably realised by now, they're not exactly "release quality"! A lot of them aren't even finished, and practically all of them could do with tidying up in one way or another. So bear this in mind - they've not out here because I'm looking for a record deal... they're here because I think they sound cool, and maybe a few other people will do too. (If you are either of them - please get in touch! :)

And just who is Jesus Dew, really?

N'joi.
