I grew up with music very much in my life. I achieved success by combining my training as an accountant with my family upbringing and love of music.

I started getting into Internet technologies and computers. I wasn't especially interested in being a musician, but I wound up finding my way back to being interested in music through computers.

Edinburgh is where I started. A lot of the remixes I made were done in my room there, and it was a good place for me to make music.

Before I'd even started doing music or having opportunities with my own music, I was studying production and business and stuff anyway. I knew there were so many jobs within the music industry - songwriting or session playing or working at a label - and I was really interested in how it all works.

When I graduated college, I had a fairly successful weekly club gig and was buying more studio equipment and writing my own music. I realized I didn't want to work.

My musical education started in the limelight, because I found myself surrounded by real musicians, but after my career had taken off.

Well, I actually first got into music as a small child, and as I became a teen, I sought out making money from music, weather that was singing lounge gigs, backup in studios, or weddings.
