Question
Have you heard of a DJ called Westbam?
Hi...
I don't know a large amount of information about the DJ himself or his song but here is a good page that will tell you what you'd probably like to know:
http://cyberproject.narod.ru/djs/westbam.htm
If you speak German or know someone who does here is another page which I suspect is helpful (he is German):
http://www.low-spirit.de/deutsch/kuenstler/bio_west.html
Also, Members of Mayday consists of Westbam and Klaus Jankhun so you may also like them. My friend here likes the song 10 in 1 by them and as for Westbam I don't know a lot of songs but I can tell you that I will never like a remix of Fischerspooner - Emerge than the Westbam remix (which I first heard in the Paul van Dyk live @ Mayday 200(2?) set...
Sincerely,
Kirby

I know a lot about techno music itself, ask me if you would like suggestions for songs you should listen to. You can be extremely specific when you tell me what type of techno you want to hear, because I`ve heard a lot of it. For example, you can say `give me titles of some trance songs that are over 150 bpm` or `give me titles of some jungle songs that are heavy on the `bass` and not too heavy on the `drums`. If you are new to the techno genre, I can tell you about most of the different genres of electronic music. Meaning, I`ll explain what one is, and compare it to others. I don`t know much about Gabber or a ton about house, but I know the most about trance, dance (classic and new), jungle and happy hardcore. I have played classical piano and oboe since I was 5 and 11 (respectively) so if you are into classical but want to start listening to some techno, I can suggest some starter songs for you. I`m interested in helping more people learn about techno music because it is fairly unknown in some areas (like NH).
Experience
Well let's put it this way... we all know that everyone steals music so I won't claim not to fit this description. However, I am also willing to pay exorbitant amounts of money to see my favorite artists live in concert to support them, and buy their CDs when I've sampled tracks (I'm cautious like that). If I don't, then it's their fault for not playing within 200 miles of me! Believe me if I had enough time to travel to Europe I would.
