Ever want to know who Wrekonize wants to collab with more than anybody? What kind of music he grew up on? What his first album he ever listened to from front to back was?

All these questions and more are answered in Wrekonize’s appearance in “Real Recognize Real”, an article series by our good friends over at DJBooth.net. From reading the article it only confirms what you probably already know, Wrek’s taste in music is wide and varied, just like his skillset as an artist.

PEEP

Who is the first artist or group that you remember hearing, which motivated you to pursue a career in music?

My parents are big music heads. Both played in bands and were songwriters. They “took me” to shows while I was still in the womb and immediately when I was old enough to properly attend. First show I can remember going to was a Duran Duran show, followed by Peter Gabriel, and then a Pink Floyd show with Roger Waters. If I had to cite an inspiration for who made me want to pursue music it would have to be my mother and father. [They] both held music in such high regard and recorded and performed music with such a passion, it was quite infectious and as long as I can remember I had caught the bug.
