I just realised I never properly introduced myself. My name is Alex Smith, and I used to track under the name "AlexS" - though I can't imagine how I came up with that name. Later, I just used my real name. I have lived in the UK all of my life (except for one day when I went to France, but people tell me that was just a day trip).
I'm 24 and I started tracking in 1997 using Scream Tracker, then started using Impulse Tracker about 6 months later. I did most of my decent tracks between 1998 - 2001 but I still dabble from time to time. I use Reason a lot these days but I do find it easier to compose in Impulse Tracker (when I can get it working).
I got my first ever death threat as a result of the first ever track of mine to be added to MA. It took just 7 minutes to make.
I'm from Essex.
Innit.
