(organization which unites underground electronic art and culture. Then he had made the first step on the scene b2b with Dj Hydrashock from Digital Nightmares DNB organization. His production became unique with the drum and bass sound which he promotes under the name Ogonek.

OGONEK&COOH interview
...How do you feel the future of the electronic music, especially of DnB ?
O : For a couple of years, there have been more and more DnB producers, it’s been like an infection, and I think it will continue to spread. Everyone will make his own way in that style, and maybe the sound system will remain abnormal, so we will get more deeply into the vibe. Respect for all the infected !
C : I think we will also have more and more DJs, producers , promoters and parties, of course. That’s why I’m sure the future will give us a chance to see the music changing and to listen to some new styles and sounds, thanks to all the new people who will get involved into it. DnB will absorb more influences both from the Techno and the Experimental styles. It will become more and more DIGITAL !!!...more...
