The early stages of Verve’s relationship with music emanated from an interest in hip-hop and other broken beat styles of music. At this stage he was entertained for some time, learning to appreciate the importance of groove, rhythm and the art of mixing beats on wax. As time elapsed and interests evolved, Verve found himself exposed to elements of dance music, namely hard trance and freeform. Intrigued by this high energy and fast paced style of music, his love for tunes saturated in melody and emotion infected him from that point onwards. Once delved deep into the realm of dance music the obsession flourished quickly, embarking on an exploration of sonic possibilities, Verve bounced like an unstable atom from genre to genre exploring all the different auditory combinations. This appreciation for all styles of music has lead to the distinctive sound which can be heard in Verve’s productions, fusing elements to create an electrifying hybrid sound. Experimentation with synthesis came to the forefront of the agenda, and in collaboration with two like-minded audio tweakers, Helskanki and inSilico the passion for quality underground productions has grown exponentially, coming to fruition recently since Verve’s return from Europe. Only time will tell what results from this underground collaboration..
