A music history of Sidney SN

 During 2001 I found Love Parade CD compilation in Carrefour in Pilsen, Czechia. Although – among other music genres - in my 90´s childhood I listened electronic music as was Scooter for example (I had every Scooter release), during my 15 old Love Parade compilation was something totally different that I listened before.

Love Parade compilation 2001 brought me to techno culture. 

In early 2000 I visited some techno events in Czechia. But there was something wrong as a common drug reality why I leaved the Czech techno events during 2004. 

I think because drug as is Czech methamphetamine was also the reason for why I rejected Czech techno events.

After 2005 there was boom in a speed techno as is a hard techno or schranz, or in Czechia was boom in free tekno as a total free drug reality. People on speed wanted speed in techno or they wanted free for drug using on free tekno events, I think.

The times during and after 2005 was for me difficult time. Because I didn’t like disco (this is not as EDM reality as is at Tomorrowland) events in Czechia similarly as the drug reality on techno or I don’t like free tekno and everything that is a free tekno non-culture. In these times I searched for a new music genre which will be possible for me. I listened progressive tech-house or German minimal techno, for example. And I also liked Inigo Kennedy tracks, for example. In Inigo Kennedy tracks I saw a vibes of a mystery of existence itself. 

Probably as an answer to speed techno there was a boom in minimal techno, during 2006. I found something from me in a minimal techno. And in the same time I also found progressive tech-house. Progressive tech-house also was something that saving my reality before 2010.

Drum and bass events I visiting from 2001 and first drum and bass CD which I listened during autumn 2001 was Ed Rush. Jungle was as a second stage on a Czech techno events during early 2001 and the second stages brought me to drum and bass. But I didn’t like a Czech mainstream jungle or drum and bass events and drum and bass not was been something as a first that I wanted for many years.

But truth is, during autumn 2006 I found a drum and bass German website where was a dark drum and bass (as is current neurofunk) and also there was uploaded a liquid, funky drum and bass mixes. This German website was first contact for me with something where in drum and bass were more interested instruments and funky things. This funky or liquid drum and bass which I found on the German drum and bass website was for me something total different than I knew at Czech events (a times without online there was especially.).

During times when I searched for something more liquid drum and bass before 2010, I found Artificial Intelligence, for example. The UK project was something that I liked pretty much in my headphones: Good liquid drum and bass and MC together.

After 2010 there was an online boom on YouTube, for example, where was possible to find a new era of liquid drum and bass. In the times before 2015 emerged many liquid drum and bass producers as is Netsky or producers as is Edlan, Changing Faces, Hybrid Minds, Aidans, Maduk, Feint, Etherwood, ... vocalists as is Laura Brehm, Veela, Riya). And this an online era of YouTube liquid drum and bass platforms (Chilloutbear, Liquiddnbftw, for example) was something why Sidney SN exist.

Although I have a experience with a dj mixing by autumn 2006, when I mixed a techno tracks on Winamp, for example, it took eight years to a times when I started mixing that I want because liquid drum and bass ideas has been total different and not a drug reality. I think when in a 90s was liquid drum and bass as an Intelligent jungle, this says something about liquid drum and bass with that I agree.

Sidney SN exist because I found electronic music genre which take intelligence vibes more than a music genre for a drug or alcohol raving especially.

During 2019 I was confronted with another drum and bass music genre, with deep drum and bass. On YouTube I listened a mix from Kyrist. Although I had a doubts about if I like whole the mix, Kyrist there mixed Interval by Spirit with Colours by Revoux feat. Charli Brix, and this was something so nice for me that I was introduced to deep drum and bass. 

I think, a deep drum and bass can be an intelligent drum and bass, because deep drum and bass producers often have an intelligent vibes in their drum and bass or a knowledge from them.

Although I like something from deep drum and bass or I like someone's from deep drum and bass producers, liquid drum and bass is it that I don't want to leave and liquid drum and bass is a main thing for me because I don't want more darkness in life although not every time is a time for a sweet vibes. But a sweet vibes is a good resist against a dark reality. And how I do, a darkness is not reason for a darkness because in liquid drum and bass is many sweetest or darkness or sadness vibes with a more positive melodies or sadness melodies as is a vocal itself. Also because sadness and darkness in a liquid drum and bass I like or I love this music genre. But I don't say that a deep drum and bass must be a dark, because deep drum and bass by someone's can be good energetic and positive set for a drum and bass events itself. 

To progressive tech-house, EDM, melodic techno or dark techno: I like progressive for many years. Miss Monique livestream, for example, from 2014, when her livestream was uploaded on Radio Intense. Or EDX, his music is a thrills for me that I want feel in a life. For example, in 2022 I visited an event in Roxy Prague where played Miss Monique and EDX and for me this event was the most beautiful event in Roxy Prague because the EDX energy. I also support positive vibes of EDM as is at Tomorrowland. I like also Fejka music or Anjunadeep or Anjunabeats or Nora En Pure. And although I am critically to some techno people or producers and scenes I like techno, and not only someone as is Anfisa Letyago, Monika Kruse, Sven Vath, Charlotte de Witte and another more melodic techno but although I don't like so much dark techno by Paula Temple, for example, I like a approaches to techno.

And from a You Get Me (2017) movie where is a song by Timecope1983 I also like or love many tracks from New Retro Wave. The vibes of many new retro songs are a beautiful journey, dreaming and sweet. And I like an ideology of new retro which is also spread through a new retro pictures and videos at a songs. 

I also like a 90’s black people American hip hop for example. Or I like a tracks by Dua Lipa, for example. 

I think that my approaches to a music are a ‘conservative’ and I don’t like a lot as I like a lot. But a main for the article are the roots for a tech and drum and bass music because I have an interest about it.
