3/4/2010 COBOL & HOBBZ
March 4th, 2010 by HOBBZ received No Comments »
Colby Dimick aka COBOL first bought his turntables in January 07 with a love of breakbeat’s syncopation and basslines, especially the more hip hop influenced, party sound of producers like Deekline, Ed Solo, Krafty Kuts and the like. He started out playing predominantly breakbeat with his friend as the duo Link & COBOL.
Since then time has pased, his tastes have broadened and skills improved, but the foundation on which he draws inspiration from has not changed. COBOL has always been more attracted to the party side of the music and having a good time because that’s what attracted him to the scene in the first place and keeps him interested. He tries not to get caught up in genres and technicalities or take what he does too seriously. The way he thinks about DJing, is that his job, in essence, is to make whoever is listening want to party. Or, if they’re at a party, to party harder! That is COBOL’s default answer when someone asks what kind of music he plays. COBOL plays party music.
