Not dubstep related, But being on stage infront of 1000+ people was a nice feeling.

I did quite a bit of mixing for a small festival recently, international acts too,
My first gig was in front of maybe 20-30 people but I still loved it

released some crappy tune on some starting label which supplied me with a discogs entree which I abuse when I pick up chicks...
oh yeah, and the gigs in front of 200 people where awesome.. specially this one time my laptop frooze so I took the mic and beatboxed untill my laptop was rebooted,... well not really, but it was cool

Two releases and a European Tour as 'Benefit of the Boomerang'.
Did lots and lots of gigging back then.. and I miss it.. need to polish
my stepper skills so I can get back there again.. Nothing as awesome
as being able to play your hard work live.

by cloak and dagger
having my music signed (although never released) and praised by one of my musical heroes
creating music for an art installation that toured the world and received tons of press
being played on 1xtra
seeing some of the biggest names in dubstep rocking out to my live PA
oh and one of my bands opened up for the locust
still have a looooong way to go, though...i'm still just a beginner

We need about 70 more fans of facebook to have 1000 fans then my life will be complete.
Really though I've had some great moments DJing over the years, more so in the past though, I don't play out much at the moment.
With dubstep though it would probably have to be finding out a tune was on the Dubfluencial 7 mix the other day, we're still not "there" and may well never will be but I think we're inching our way along slowly so onwards and upwards (hopefully)...got quite a big tune in the works at the moment

My greatest achievement as an artist is making music that only I like.
My greatest achievement as a sell out whore is licensing a song to a Japanese car company.
