New d&b clubnight launches at Dubrovnik in the heart of Helsinki. For our opening night we have the honour to invite :
SUBJECT 13
The original Cockney lad himself. Subject 13 was born and bred in London. Before making his name as one of Drum and Bass's brightest lights, he developed his appreciation for music by having late night listening sessions as a young un. 'I was always messing about with records from a young age and got hooked and fascinated with it, I couldn't stop playing my parents records which ended up with my breaking the needle on the record player. Naturally i was banned from using it again, but I wasn't going to let that stop me. would sneak up out of bed at night to listen to pirate stations and play records at a really low level..naturally, so they couldn't hear it. It was daring and fun and led to me falling in love with music. One of the best times in my life. The Drum and Bass route came about after countless nights messing with Hardcore. I started by going to a local youth center where they allowed us to mess around with decks and samplers. I loved it a lot and got permission from the guy running the place to come in on my own to put together a few ideas I had. That idea turned out to be Eternity...my first track. the engineer was so impressed, he suggested taking it to a label. The label was Vinyl Solution and the rest as they say is history.'
