| Olcyrus: General Info
|
| Member Since | 3/11/2007 | | Band Website | seattlednb.com | | Influences | For dj'ing and dnb in general I could not have developed without the guidance of Slantooth and Zacharia.
I like alot of older punk. Minor threat, fugazi, drive like jehu, born against.
Bad 80's metal like motley crue, guns n roses, skid row.
Metal was lead by pantera, metallica, sepultura.
Hip hop also plays a important piece. Dr Dre, Tupac, Biggie, Snoop, Wu Tang, Eazy E.
My all time labels for dnb are Renegade Hardware, Ram, Bad Company Recordings , V Records.
My current inspiration is coming from Fanu, Macc, Breakage, Fracture & Neptune, Dylan, Current Value, Demo | | Sounds Like | acrossed the board. giving the people what they need to move! | | Record Label | unsigned | | Type of Label | None |

In late 99' Olcyrus first started playing the club scene. 2000 saw his first residency at "aftermath" the then longest running dnb night in Seattle.
In 2001 he attended the California Recording Institute in San Francisco CA.
Olcyrus returned to Seattle in 2002 and picked up a residency at the "Compound Records" night. He also began working at Platinum records doing dnb ordering alongside Zacharia. Since then it has been a steady onslaught of gig after gig
2005 saw Olcyrus start a weekly night called "Wavelength Wednesdays". The night was a great succes and brought new flavors to people every week.
Opening for heavywieghts like Spor, Chris Renegade, Dom & Roland, John B, Total Science, Pendulum and more, Olcyrus has "earned his stripes" to become a solid piece of the seattle dnb community
2007 was a wildly busy year for Olcyrus. Aside from having one of the busiest dj schedules in town, he has also managed to book the first stateside tour for one of his musical influences Fanu and open for another, Breakage. Olcyrus also received some press in the pages of Knowledge Magazine UK in the section titled "Give em' props".
2008 keeps going where 2007 left off, the DJ schedule has been full. A new mix of all Breakage tunes was just recorded live on Portland radio and posted here. In June Olcyrus returned home to Seattle after 10 months rockin it in Portland to join the DJ tech Support Team at Rane. Got Serato? Holla :)
Olcyrus is also the stateside tour manger for Fanu. Early 08' saw a 13 city tour roll across this continent leaving beats broken and minds shattered every city he touched down. For Fanu booking inquiries, please contact olcyrus@lycos.com For more info on Fanu please check www.fanumusic.com
