Greatest referred to as a melodic, intensely split ode to Autechre, Mullinix was raised hearing Brian Eno, Roxy Music, and Speaking Heads. In quality school he performed a few wind flow instruments before buying the cello; an unusual instrument for anyone who has an unlimited common understanding for from hip-hop, punk, and grindcore. Following that, he found out the pioneering British function of Warp Information and what became referred to as Intelligent Dance Music (IDM); a catagory connected with functions like Autechre, Aphex Twin, and Squarepusher. Inside a town where whatever was not home or traditional techno was shunned, Mullinix began DJing drum’n’bass in 1995 at regional events beneath the name SK-1.
