it's a pretty amazing story, the African techno story. or maybe amazing isn't the right word.
whatever the word is for shaking your head in admiration at conceiving and then actually executing such a thing.
I worked for an NGO in rural southern Mexico when I was around that age or maybe a bit younger
I cannot even begin to imagine showing up and playing people there records

it's definitely part of the dissensus origin story/creation myth as I understand it, along with I guess Energy Flash and then that whole early 00s blog scene
I showed up about 6 years in so I missed all that

I having in the last few years arrived at age (mid-30s) where you begin to reflect nostalgically on people and things in earlier parts of your life
