Berlin's Tim Eliot represents the top percentile of european drum & bass producers. With substantial training in classical piano, he began dabbling in electronic music in 1992. Several years later he began receiving recognition on local Berlin radio stations and a series of irrefutably classic 12"s ensued. Seminal works on Don Q and Position Chrome catapulted Current Value into a literal phase of underground superstardom.
Around that time he also began playing live in his hometown and later also in other places in Europe and in the USA. Through proper distribution and excellent exposure the Position Chrome releases like 'Creative Robot', 'Skybreaker', and 'Bass Riot' were very well received particularly in North America. The decidedly dark and often dissonant sound of the techstep revolution resonated with many disenfranchised junglists as well as electronica fans. With numerous singles and 4 LP's, Current Value left an indelible mark on the drum & bass but also the techno genre. With subsequent appearances on renouned labels like DonQ Records (ger), Ruff-Teck (nl), Klangkrieg (ger), Phantom Noise (ger), NoBreaks Rec (ger), Soothsayer Recordings, Current Value has continued to produce quality drum & bass for the dancefloor as well as the living room audience. In 2004 after 1 year of education he received his Diploma at the School of Audio Engineering SAE. In mid 2005 Soothsayer released the first of several Current Value 12"s;a split 12"with Kid Kryptic is out now. Sometime around summer 2006, Current Value will come even stronger with his new work for Soothsayer Recordings, Intransigent Recordings, the ultimate UK labels Obscene Recordings and Tech Itch, Counterstrikes label Algorythm and the amazing US based Evol Intent Recordings.
Current Value has started a collaboration with SPL and will provide tunes for his label "Lost Soul Recordings".
he will concentrate on his live performance and also provide a vocal live set with his singer SNOW.
