Daniel Shirley
Hi, my name's Dan. I was born on the 4/11/82 which currently makes me 17.
I live on the border of South Gloucestershire and Wiltshire. I am at the 6th form at the school where I went for 5 years. I study for A levels in History, Physics and what they call Religious Studies, which is actually ethics, morality and sociology mostly, not some kind of God Squad club like most people seem to think. I am not religious and I still think this is my favourite course.
I am a scratch DJ and producer, and I'm into hip hop and jazz influenced breakbeats, which tend to be categorized as Acid Jazz or Trip Hop. I like artists such as Kruder & Dorfmeister, DJ Food, anything on Ninja Tunes records or Jazz Fudge records, Peanut Butter Wolf, the Scratch Perverts, Portishead, Roni Size and the like. I make music which is influenced by all the above, and also film music, especially 60s and 70s stuff, and jazz/funk drums. If you want to find out about the stuff I do and how I do it, Click Here.
I get called Sideshow Bob at school, because of my hair, which is kind of pseudo-dreadlocks. If you can help me sort out my hair, Contact me.
I like going to pubs - but I spend far too much money on drink. Last month I spent £70 on beer alone- pretty serious considering I don't have a job. If you would like to make a donation to my weekends, Contact me. Every little helps (to get me pissed).
I have 1 brother, Marcus, who is 14. Please don't visit his homepage. Thankyou.
I don't have a girlfriend... but I do have a Vespa 50cc scooter, which gets me about, as I live in a village with very poor public transport. I am learning to drive and will pass my test with flying colours in early 2000.
I use a Mac and I love it. Fellow Mac users will be given SPECIAL ATTENTION when they Contact me, especially when they send me free non buggy software.
