promising producers who just stopped
As someone who grew up with with the house, techno, dnb, trance of the 90s and enjoyed so many tracks of the time, truly timeless classics, there's a thing that never sat well with me. There are a good number of those producers who are still working. Some had a good run for 5 years and their music stands off as a small but important catalog - and then there are the people people put out 1 or 2 EPs and were done. But their contribution was a really high quality track or two that could stand toe-to-toe within the reset of the canon.
What happened to these folks? How do you just have this high level of talent and taste and bow out. I'm thinking a lot of UK and continental European producers from the later 90s specifically. Or the folks who released a few dubplate-only tracks that blew up on the pirates.
Does anyone know someone like this and their story?
I'm guessing the effort to finish 3 or 4 tracks then find a label might have been what stopped a lot of people, even before the artistic inspiration waned. Or they just aged out of their music scene before they could complete more works.
