"For the last 5 years I've been experimenting with different styles of dance music. I started out mixing hard house records in my bedroom and quickly became caught up in the club scene around my hometown. As I got tired of hearing everyone else play the same tracks over and over again, I began searching for new styles of dance music. It wasn't until I moved to the UK that I started to get a feel for the sound I wanted. I quickly became enchanted with the grooves and rhythms of deep tribal tech-house while living in Manchester. I decided to stick around and learn production from different producers in that genre. After about a year I decided it was time to return to the US and start doing things on my own. Currently, I'm experimenting with some kind of collaboration between deep tribal tech-house and trance. I find that the hypnotic percussion of deep tribal tech-house mixed with the progressive bass lines and euphoric melodies of trance are creating a style of music that speaks right to the soul. At the moment I'm not sure where this path will lead me, or what will come from all of this, but for right now, the DJ Booth is my platform, and these records are my voice....."

Why this name?
I got my nickname while playing football in highschool and it stuck ever since...
Do you play live?
I absolutely love djing, and everytime I play seems to be my new favorite...
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
I think the internet has really opened the music industy up for the average person. Back in the day, you had to have the backing of a major lable to get your music heard, but today all you need is a computer.... It's amazing..
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
in a heartbeat...
Your influences?
I seem to take bits and pieces of everything I hear. I've grown up listening to all sorts of musical styles, from The 3 Tennors, to Squarepusher, I love it all.
Favorite spot?
My favorite city in the world would have to either San Antonio, Texas or Manchester, UK. Some of my greatest memories have happened in those two cities, and it would be impossible to chose between them..
Equipment used:
I'm a steinberg man! I absoloutely love CubaseSX2, and all of the NI and Waves stuff. You will hear the PRO-53 on EVERYTHING I do.
