"Getting into music was a funny one, I’m a Metal head at heart and love bands like Iron Maiden, Faith no More and Queen growing up. But I think it was around 92’ / 93 when the euro pop dance type songs from 2 Unlimited etc started to flood the commercial charts and Happy Hardcore was big among my friends that I just became so frustrated with it I said to them at the time “This is shit, anyone can do it – Christ I could probably make it on my Amiga in my bedroom!” and out of pure stubbornness I went off to prove a point. Ha little did know a few years later I found out a lot of those tracks were in fact being made by on an Amiga or an Atari ST. A strange thing happened though as I was taking the piss out of the scene there was some bands I was actually getting into and loving because they had a harder sound and used their equipment and would produce songs the way a rock band would, so I started to slowly get into bands like Prodigy and Chemical Brothers. The first time I heard that beat crash in on ‘Break & Enter’ on Jilted Generation I knew there was a whole darker harder scene that I wasn’t aware and wanted to be a part of." http://uniquedrops.com/blog/martin-millar-unique-artist-highlight-musician/composer-interview Uniquedrops Interview - February 3, 2016 Influences include Boards of Canada, The Advisory Circle, Aphex Twin, Autechre, Carpen
