I don't know how it happened, but I don't recall listening to music until I turned 25 years old.
Then, when I moved to Berlin, I was introduced to music from two opposite directions. One friend introduced me to jazz, while the other introduced me to techno.
Max, probably the person with the widest music knowledge I know, caught my attention when he made me appreciate "sampling." Meanwhile, Yanick, my COVID bromance, sparked my interest in techno by highlighting how techno's length and thematic evolutions can somehow resemble classical music more than any other modern genre.
So it began… my journey into music.
