i live on vancouver island on canada's west coast where there really is
no scene for this kind of music
so i really rely on sites like this to get my fix (and what a 'goldmine' this site is!! )
i heard 'plastikman' 'closer' 2 years ago and it changed my life for the better-
that's why i'm here now.
peace.

Do yourself a favor and start with the first Plastikman release and work forward. You'll appreciate his stuff more that way, understanding where it's come from...
Nice history - similar kind of thing happened to me. I was always into pure techno, much more of the detroit sound. I heard Hawtin's "Decks, EFX and 909" and loved it, then I heard "DE:9" and that was it - my life was changed!!! That put me on the minimal road, and I never left since...
The minimal scene in the UK is pathetic, so I know how you feel. Sites like this are my only chance to develope and explore my tastes in music. You'll enjoy it here mate; I certainly do.
