Skamrok BIO:
Well I'm a DJ that goes by the name of SKAMROK (known as DJ Skamz from 1994 - 2002/03), the Hip Hop culture grabbed me when I was very young as it was blowing up all over the world, taken in I started breaking and cutting on the parents turntable (they loved that) in 1984 and went on from there.
Grew up on a heavy heavy (self inflicted) diet of Hip Hop, kept up to date by older cousin / graf writer Stu (Corn), and with my same age graf writer cousin Rob we would seek out Hip Hop knowledge wherever we could find it.
Then in 95 I was hooked up with the DJ Leacy (R.I.P.) and DJ Aiden by a mutual friend (we all lived in the same town). Being around them inspired me massively and hearing the records / live tapes they had made me start to dig for B-Beats properly.
It was around this time (mainly due to the diggin’) that I started to open my mind up to other styles of music, so apart from the Funk sounds that I was mainly looking for at the time I started listening to a lot of the music that was being played in my house and family parties while I was growing up, which was everything from 60's pop, Motown / Soul, New Wave, Ska, Punk, Goth, Indie and lots more.
What can I say, I'm a huge music lover and if it touches me I'm into it, all ignorance is out the window.
As much as I believe this culture needs to be preserved and represented properly it's important to remember that it's supposed to be fun, so don't think you can't enjoy other things outside of it and live your life to the fullest for as long as you can, you never know what’s around the corner so be happy alright, haha.
