Im heavily influenced by lots of artists and genre's not specifically Drum and Bass.
Before I gotr heavily into the scene Dance Music was a big inspiration for me, artists like Faithless, and the Chemical Brothers, Underworld and 2 Many DJ's.
Ive also listened to a lot of rock music, for as long as I can remember, My favourite, or most influential bands are The Red Hot Chilli Peppers, or the Foo Fighter.
When I started to mix drum and bass my main musical influences were some of the top DJ's in the scene; Andy C, Friction, Zinc, but as i get more and more involved its some of the scene's lesser known talents who inspire me. DJ's who only recently have started to break through; Cyantific, Uncle Dugs, and many more.
Altho I havent started producing yet, I am to in 2008. My favourite producers (and influences if you can call them that) are: Ben Sage, Tommy Knockers, Alix Perez, Marcus Intalex.
I wouldnt ever say one genre of music has influenced me more....My Parents forced the likes of Nirvana and Pearl Jam on me since day dot, and I could still kick back and enjoy just about any music with a bit of substance.
