Cativo

CATIVO (Assimilate Rec./DUB) Cativo ist einer der Pioniere der deutschen Drum n Bass Szene.
Sein musikalischer Werdegang begann 1991 als er damals noch als Techno- DJ auf verschiedenen Raves in Deutschland seine ersten Erfahrungen sammeln durfte. Die ersten richtigen Heroes waren zu der Zeit Front Line Assembly, Joey Beltram U.R. und Ministry. 1995 kam er durch seinen Job in einem Plattenladen und einem guten Freund zum Drum n Bass. Danach ging es Schlag auf Schlag weiter. Er wurde vom Deutschen Techno Label „Force Inc.“ gesigned, um für das neuen Imprint „Position Chrome„ den deutschen Drum n Bass Sound zu prägen. Nach unzähligen Releases und Jahren, war der nächst logische Schritt ein eigenes Label zu gründen. Er tourte quer durch die Republik und Europa, Gastspiele in New York und L.A. inclusive
Die Zeit war Reif für Assimilate Rec. und für neuen Sound.
Für Ihn und sein Label "Assimilate Rec." produzierten und produzieren Act`s wie, Hedj (R.I.P.), Zardonic, Cooh, Neonlight, Hallucinator etc. .

Further steps of his musical self-definition were EBM, Industrial, and Techno. Between 1988 and 1995, groups like Front Line Assembly, Ministry, Joey Beltram, and NIN mainly inspired Cativo. And finally his all time favorite DJ JEFF MILLS let him no other chance to start djing by his own. Having worked in a record store from 1992 to 1995, Cativo gradually started to produce his first own tracks and to perform as a DJ . His good friend LELONEK (ANOKHA), living in London, got him in touch with DrumnBass. The amazing energy of this special kind of dance music infected him with ease.
