Brief Experience :

Having been lucky enough to have caught the first wave of Chicago House imports (Virgo, Fingers...) in 1988, Nick Hodgkins' first house music venture involved producing lo-tech acid-styled tracks on a Yamaha YS200 FM synth and RX21 drum machine. While living in Newcastle-upon-Tyne in the early nineties, he continued to produce while also starting DJing. He formed the underground house outfit Lucid Dream, with two other members on vocals, and played several gigs at the Riverside - then home to Shindig - including the 1992 'Not the Rave Festival' - a protest gig against the growing (Prodigy-driven) commercialism of underground dance music.
