MIKE LOVE

Michael Love has been intimately involved with the Blacksburg scene since early 1999, though it wasn't until the winter of 2000-2001 that he discovered the new style of 'nu skool breaks' music emerging from the UK, which was to be the sound that would define him as a DJ. It was also around this time that he co-founded the KGB, which swiftly became the area's preeminent drum 'n' bass/breakbeat DJ collective. Since that time he has appeared on lineups with such various figures as Florida's Sharaz and Atlanta's Faust and Shortee, and has rocked soundsystems in all of Blacksburg's major venues.

Mike plays driving, bass-heavy breaks tunes with influences from early-90's hardcore rave music, drum 'n' bass, reggae, and hip hop. His latest mix, 'Kihon 1,' recorded in July 2005, stands as an example of the current sound of Blacksburg's one and only breaks DJ.

THE LEMUR

Mike Reich aka The Lemur was born on Zarooll 5. After traveling to five inhabited galaxies he decided to settle down on planet earth. He laid low during his first 500 years and emerged in the late 20th century in Blacksburg, VA. Not content with mainstream music he focused on drum and bass. He spins at parties in Blacksburg once every two or three years. His favorite drink is '24oz PBR' which just so happens to be the self destruct sequence for Air Force 1.
