My name is DJ Max Power, I am a producer and DJ. I make hip hop beats and remixes, as well as scratch just a little bit and mix at parties.
Why this name?
I think it's obvious.
Do you play live?
I play parties and have played clubs. I also have been on college radio extensively.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It allows independent music to gain wider exposure and allows listeners to find good music.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Hell f***ing yes.
Band History:
I had a radio show on KPSU in Portland for three years, during which I became interested in turntabling. I moved on to making my own remixes when the software became available to me. My remixes are downloaded daily from Limewire, and they have been available on Audio Galaxy as well as Napster, when they were up and running. Up until I graduated, I was the Production Director at KWVA, the University of Oregon's student radio station. I then had a hiphop show there for a few months before I moved to Portland.
