Hi all
So I just discovered S3RL around a month ago... most of my recent history with EDM has been dubstep- it was my music of choice for when I run. The high energy music kept my legs going. However I never found an electronic style of music that I liked a lot.
Growing up my mum of all people bought the single of 'Hocus Pocus' when it first came out. I think I was maybe 7 or 8 years old at the time and I remember listening to it a lot. Then there was a gap... my next taste was listening to the 'happy hardcore' compilations- a mate of mine would share an earbud from his discman on the bus trip home
Anyway, a some weeks back I YouTube'd the track I just mentioned (Here's Johnnnnnny!) and autoplay queued up a S3RL track right afterwards... it was an hour-long mega mix. I found myself going back to it again and again- until over the course of a week it was ALL I was playing.
So here I am, a month on, and it's like I have stumbled into a new world. I have no idea what the genre is (hardcore, nightcore, UK hardstyle...) but all I know is that S3RL's music is effecting me in an amazingly positive way: it has inexplicably helped with my depression and anxiety, somehow my confidence is higher, I am actually HAPPY- which feels really odd? But nice, none the less
Anyway, I didn't mean to write an essay. I guess I'm just bewildered and excited to have discovered something that I like so much and no nothing about. I would love to see S3RL at the end of the year in Sydney, especially given it's his last tour but the thought of going to a rave is daunting as it would be such a new and unfamiliar territory. I'm hoping that by then I will feel more confident sussing out the scene.
Thank you for allowing me to join your forum and I hope to see you all around!
