Real name: Dave Pascoe

Effective period / Period of releases: 1994 - 2018

A twelve year veteran of the London underground dance scene, DDR has unleashed his own brand of techno / trance on many labels and at many parties / raves / clubs / festivals around the globe.
A central player on the U.K. free party sound system scene, DDR could be found running rig's at parties and festivals by Full-On and Bedlam in the early nineties. Following on from this it was not long before he was bringing his fledgling studio out to these events to play music to the masses directly from the machines.
A meeting of minds between DDR and the then newly formed Liberator DJ trio led to a first vinyl release for DDR on Stay Up Forever no. 2. A pioneer of what was to become the London Acid Techno sound, DDR was the first guest producer to appear on Stay Up Forever and he has had a hand in many of their most memorable releases and is still one of their most prolific artists.
Through working with the Liberator DJ's as their studio engineer, DDR met with DJ Choci of Choci's Chewns and was soon roped in to run Choci's studio for him. A fruitfull eighteen months passed at the Chocolate factory seeing Choci and DDR rattle off a great many acid-trance stormers and numerous proto-hardhouse/nrg classics. Moving on from Choci's studio to start his own labels with current partner in crime Mark Kinetec of the Kinetec empire, DDR was seen getting his hands dirty designing and constructing a fully equiped, state of the art studio for Kinetec Records ( all those years of college and 'real' jobs paid off.....), of which he is still the manager. The labels Hazchem and COSHH were born from this effort and were the prototype labels for the Infectious Distribution offspring from Kinetec Records.
During this time DDR had continued to produce records for a slew of newer labels such as Smitten, Cluster, Routemaster, Input, etc and also hone his skills as a live performer travelling to many places around the globe with his flight case full of equipment to entertain the hordes.
More recently DDR has been involved in the construction of the vinyl mastering facility for Kinetec Mastering, continues to produce for all of his favourite labels and has married and spends much of his time in the States where he can be caught bringing the sound of the London techno underground to an event near you.
