Neil Thomson's profile picture

Neil Thomson

To start from the start, Neil has been into electronic music since coming out of his mother's loin and being deprived of oxygen for several hours. Thanks to a passing midwife who cut his cord, he now lives for all to see and hear. He was raised in a simple way, but after a toddler labotomy his magnificent mind soon tuned in to the waveform transmissions which pumped out of his fisher price wireless. Tip-toeing through primary school in the mid-eighties, he was visited by a semi-professional break dancer with a crew called Electro Shock, introducing Neil to the sounds of electro. Eight years old, a tiny Neil stepped on the train and travelled across the continent to Cob Records in Bangor, where he purchased records marked with the Street Sounds Label. < Battling though puberty, despite the occasional disappearance into his bedroom with a poster of Samantha Fox, Neil's attention was almost entirely focussed on a radio show presented by a man called John Peel. Underground acts like 808 St
