Bio: David "D-Wizz" Williams is a LA-based hip-hop producer whose work with "Cool" Ken Winton on Dr. Shock project shot him to unlikely acclaim in 1995. With a series of ever more elaborate conceptual projects since then, Williams wildly imaginative productions and offbeat sense of humor made him one of the leading figures in the underground renaissance of rap in the late '90s.
A Jazz trained Drummer in his younger days, Williams instead fell in love with Kraftwerk and old-school hip-hop, as well as R&B and Rock & Roll. He began DJing as a teenager in NY before he moved to LA but was discouraged by the advanced skills of some younger NY Area DJs (i.e., legendary DJ Red Alert). Williams instead turned his attention to crafting his own productions, accepting gigs around the NY Area through the early '90s, which eventually culminated in the Dr. Shock project in 1993. A lo-fi fusion of hip-hop beats and bizarre atmospherics on par with some of the weirder exports from the U.K. hip-hop scene, Dr. Shock was released by the Single Mind label in 1994; and achieved a level of Underground success. Propelled by Wintons pornographic rhymes and mind-bending meter, the record owed its success in equal measure to William's inventive production, which wed loping, down tempo rhythms with, by turns, weeping violins, space-born bleeps, and wiggles, and heavy metal guitar riffs. Now in 2006 its his time to shine, he re-did his sound, he changed his game and now hes ready for the next evolution of hip hop.
