    Your opinion

    so.. podcasts merchandise shoutbox different banner skins You (well, I) can change the skins (even with the option in your profile) but I made this one default cause it works with other shit. also i hacked the shit out of the profile section because this technically is a whole CMS and not just a forum - i've just made it be the forum only with the other functionalities still existing because they're useful (links, downloads, the side blocks etc) Liking the feedback, keep it comin if you think of anything

  17. Greetings Aaron Static how are you today? Lets start things off by asking how did you get into producing/composing at such a young age and who were your major influences? G'day! Doing fine thanks. I was introduced to electronic music in the early 90s by KLF and was always intrigued as to how it was made. A few years later a friend introduced me to the 'demo scene' and tracker music by people like Skaven and Purple Motion. The internet wasn't around then so I ordered a copy of OctaMED for my Amiga by mail order and started playing around with sounds. About the same time as this The Prodigy released 'Music for the Gilted Generation' and it was a huge phenomenon at my school, so I started looking around to see if I could find more music like that and stumbled on Perth's RTRFM radio station one late night. They were playing Hardcore/Gabber and I was instantly hooked into trying to recreate the stuff in trackers. My influences in this early era were Ultra Sonic, Nasenbluten and the Thunderdome Gabber CDs. When I was finally old enough to go out I discovered Psy-Trance and Jungle which were the most popular styles in Perth, these appealed to me more than Hardcore so I quickly switched and started taking influence from artists like Hallucinogen, Astral Projection and Man With No Name. You acquired the name 'Static' while being discovered in the Perth rave scene, how did this name come about? My girlfriend at the time suggested it one night as I was not happy with my name at the time (which was 'DJ Daemon' lol), for many years I just went by the name 'Static' alone playing Drum n Bass at raves and clubs, when I moved to Melbourne I decided to start using 'Aaron Static' as it's easier for Googling haha. What was the reasoning behind moving to Melbourne, were there better opportunities on the east coast? There were more opportunities for my web development career which was the main reason, but musically I was always so jealous of the massive prog explosion that happened here at the start of the century. I was always a secret prog-head amongst my drum n bass peers so that definitely weighed in on my decision to come here instead of Sydney or elsewhere. What is Aaron Static doing present day, do you have any residencies or radio shows that you would like to share with us? Right now I'm doing a 2hr radio show on danceradioglobal.com, 12pm GMT on the first Wednesday of every month with guest DJs from Melbourne and around the world. I also have a couple guest spots on other's shows coming up including Ingo Vogelmann's Lightworks on Frisky Radio, Jan 25th, the Indigo Records label show in February and every now and then you can catch me on the Kiss FM show 'Progg On The Roxx' Friday nights at 11:30pm. With the new year in full swing already, what can we expect to see from you this year, any new projects you are working on, can we expect to see Power Hour to continue on in 2011? 2011 is shaping up to be my busiest year yet. I have a huge swathe of remixes coming out soon on labels like Spherax, Balkan Connection, Mistique, and Spring Tube. I have a couple EPs coming out on new imprint 'Hyline Music' formed by Jetlag Digital's A&R as well as currently finishing up 2 more EPs for Indigo and Deep Blue Eyes (Proton Music). Power Hour will of course continue, I have some awesome guests coming up in the next few months and I'm in the process of getting it syndicated to more stations. If someone at home wanted to get into djing/producing, what advice would you give them? Have fun with it and don't ever give up. I have seen too many people lose faith when they can't get something signed or get a gig in those shaky first years.. stick with it and do it because you enjoy it! One last thing before we wrap things up, I had a listen to your Halcyon + On + On bootleg you released in December 2010 on your Soundcloud, great track have been a fan of the original since hearing it in the closing credits of the first Mortal Kombat movie, is there anything you would like to shamelessly plug of your own work/websites for our readers? Thanks! I was worried about that bootleg; it sat on my hard drive for almost a year while I tweaked it to death until I finally had the balls to put it out, but it ended up being a great success and is getting played by alot of high profile DJ’s so I'm really glad. As for shameless plugs I guess just my website aaronstatic.com which is always up to date with everything on my Soundcloud/twitter and has links to my Facebook etc. Thank you for speaking with us today and have a great time at Prognosis February 11th @ LOOP - make sure you check it out! Thanks to you too! Looking forward to Prognosis should be a good night. Full info on Prognosis can be found at http://substancesounds.net
