Cutting his teeth as a rave and club DJ all over Atlanta in the early 00s. Mite remembers, "I started out being a really jaded purist only wanting to play the most cutting edge Jungle and Drum + Bass." But as his tastes matured he became heavily interested "in the classic genre blending selectors Larry Levin and Danny Krivit," he states. Mite became more adventurous with his programming. Keen on weaving half-time snares of slowed down Hip Hop in and out of the multi-layered complex breaks prevalent in Drum + Bass.

"As the boundaries of Drum + Bass became stricter crowds in Atlanta were less interested in a DJ truly blending different genres," he states. The splintered genres of EDM were coming back together through mid-tempo rhythms and everything started embracing the subbass that Mite had grown to love in Drum + Bass. Citing an interview between Fabio + Grooverider on Drum and Bass Arena as a turning point; "hearing about the countless raves and clubs Fabio + Groove played in the late 80s and early 90s playing pitched up Breaks, Hip Hop and Jazz on top of Acid House and Techno further inspired me to seek a tempo where that harmony would be seamless." After a friend had recommended the GRIME compilation circa 2004 on Richard D. James' imprint Rephlex Records Mite had found his breath of fresh air somewhere in the grey area of Grime and what was later to become known as Dubstep. "I knew I'd found the outlet for the sounds of Jungle I loved and the familiar tempo of Break Hardcore I missed so dearly."

With DJs such as Silkie, Wonder, Moldy, Mayhem currently showing support I don't doubt we'll hear more of Mite in the future.with support from...CALAMALKA [Lighta!]
