After playing drums in bands & generally being part of the background for almost ten years,
Derek realized that there was something missing. The year was 1991 & techno started to become
a prominent force in NYC. This was the thing that filled the void for him. It was new, exciting
& it was a kind of music that he could do on his own as well as take advantage of his growing
studio skills. So he purchased some electronic gear & by 1992 started producing tracks & selling
mix tapes.

By 1994 Derek started to become a respected dj in the electronic community in new york.
It wasn't long before he started being part of important events, holding many residencies, working
at the vinyl shop Throb in New York, & commercially releasing tracks.
