Gen, typical of parents
my dad wanted me to be like him, a plastic surgeon. I said hell no!
My mom wants me to do whatever makes me happy and that will make her happy. My high school years in 2000-2003 at a French school. That almost automatically meant that i was the only one into EDM.
89-93: Dance music (Dr. Alban, Ace of Base, Technotronic, 2Unlimited, etc...) and that was when i lived in France, in the nest of rap music back then! Number of friends listening to Dance back then: zero
Then i moved to Techno until 1997, my Polish cousin used to give me radio cassettes of Techno music every summer since Lebanon didn't have any of this (or at least i didn't know about it). Then it was the transition phase to Trance music. Luckily at the right time! The GOLDEN years with the Classics! My hits weren't backstreet boys, britney spears or spice girls.... *disgusted*... my hits were For An Angel, Another Way, 7 Days & 1 Week, Binary Finary among others. That was the period when i was a heavy listener of MixFM cuz it was the only station on which i could hear those tracks.
In 2001 there was a period of like 4 months during school year when i listened to rock music, just to see if i have a wider taste in music (not limited to Trance and Progressive EDM) but like i expected: i didn't like non-EDM stuff and went back to Trance!
As for what i wanted to be, in childhood (8-12 years old) i dreamed of being a football player. I finished hospitality management recently and now i'm doing my MBA. But working in a hotel or in a corporation (HELL NO to this second one) is not my "final destination". I wanna do something in the EDM scene
and i'm convinced that i will fulfill this dream. So basically, making loads of money isn't my number one priority and i dream of doing something that makes people happy (football and music are made for this purpose).
