Music

I mostly listen to electronica.
I got into this type of music at the end of high school. My greatest influence at the time was the soundtrack to a video game called WipEout. This game and its sequel WipEout XL introduced me to electronic music. The first electronica artists I purchased CDs of were The Chemical Brothers, The Crystal Method, Propellerheads, Leftfield, The Future Sound of London, The Prodigy, Moby, Cirrus, Paul Oakenfold, Paul Van Dyk, Timo Maas, and Hybrid.

Currently I'm into Dubstep, Glitch, Glitch Hop, Downtempo House, Acid Jazz, Ambient, Trance, and whatever fancies me.

The current artists I'm into are the following: BT, Edit, The Glitch Mob, DJ Shadow, Amon Tobin, Eskmo, ATB, The Cinematic Orchestra, dZihan and Kamien, Thievery Corporation, DJ Logic, Kraddy, Nujabes, Ooah, Royksopp, Skalpel, Ulrich Schnauss, and Underworld.

My favorite label is Ninja Tune. I just recently bought their 20th anniversary project. There is really great music on the two volumes. I was first introduced to them through the 10th anniversary project.
