I have been playing drums since I was 9 years old. I always enjoyed performing and making music. I got my first turntables at the of 18. Started throwing parties, playing live. After a while I had to go to school and my DJing carrier was put on hold. After finishing school and getting a good job I got into producing. I went through different styles and ended up producing electronic music. It was my favorite. That is when I decided to DJ again. I played in local clubs and bars, since my carrier was going nowhere I soon pretty much lost interest in everything. During all this time I was heavy into drinking, using drugs, going to clubs. Having "fun". I tryed everything in life, but nothing could satisfy me. Slowly my partying was getting worse as well as my depression. I could not understand why am I here and why do I have to live this life if it does not bring my joy and happiness. That's when I started looking for answers. Soon after I started looking Lord Jesus Christ found me. I turned away from my old life style and put my trust in Jesus to save me. I finally recieved that peace and happiness that I was looking for. I recieved a joy of I knowing that all my sins are forgiven and I can be in peace with God and live with Him forever. God gave me a new heart. I quit drinking, using drugs, all the bad stuff. I became a new man overnight. Inspired by all this I started writing new music again and DJing. Check out my music and praise God for everything He does.

Band/artist history

Life is empty and meaningless. Thats how I used to think. What is the purpose of it all if we die? Since I could not find peace and happiness in this world, I tried to find it in this worlds pleasures. Money, alcohol, drugs, sex, it was fun for a while, but it would always leave me empty and unsatisfied. Frustrated with life I began to drown my self in alcohol, drugs, unhealthy self indulgence the only thing that could give me some kind of the outlet. The irony is the more I did the worse it made me feel. I began to search for the meaning of life and some kind of the truth. What is this all mean and why are we here? The only satisfying answers I found are in the pages of the Bible. I came to find out that we are made by God, superior spirit, who made all the creation and whole universe. God made us to enjoy his creation and to be in relationship with Him, He did not want us to be slaves, so he gave us a freedom of choice. Men did not choose wisely. We chose to disobey God and that is why we suffer today. People have this void inside that could only be fulfilled by God. That is why no matter what we try in life, we will always feel empty. Only God can fill that void, thats how we were created. God loves us and he wants to fill that void for each and every one of us. This world is awaiting judgment for all its deeds. God created a new world for people who choose to be with Him. He will give those people eternal life. He sends His son Jesus to die for our sins, so we can have that eternal relationship with Him. You dont have to feel empty and meaningless anymore. Come to God as you are, tell Him you are sorry and He will accept you into His Kingdom where there will be no tears and no sorrow, only happiness forever. I did, I dont do drugs anymore, and I dont drink anymore. I feel happy and satisfied, because the true happiness is in God.

Anything else?

Of all the questions you will ask yourself in life, probably the most important is, Am I good enough to go to Heaven? The way to find this out is to ask yourself if you have obeyed the Ten Commandments. Most would answer the question, "Well, I've broken one or two, but nothing too serious, like murder, etc." So, let's go through them and see how you do: 

1. "You shall have no other gods before Me." 

Is God first in your life? Do you love God above all else? Many years ago, I purchased a T.V. for our children, but the first evening we had it, I arrived home from work and found that they didn't even bother to greet me. They were too busy watching television. I turned it off and explained to them that if they ignored me because they preferred to watch T.V. they were setting their love on the gift rather then the giver, a wrong order of affections. In the same way, if we love anythinghusband, wife, children or even our own livesmore than we love God, we are setting our affection on the gift rather than the Giver, which is a transgression of the First Commandment. In fact, the Bible says that we should so love God that our love for Mom and Dad and brother and sister should seem like hatred compared to the love we have for the God who gave those loved ones to us. 

We are also commanded to love our neighbor as much as we love ourselves. Jesus spoke of a Samaritan who found an injured stranger, bathed his wounds, carried him to an inn, gave money for his care and told the inn-keeper that he would pay for his expenses. We call him the good Samaritan, but in reality he wasn't "good" at all, he merely obeyed the basic command to love his neighbor as himself. That is a picture of how God expects us to love our fellow human beings. We should love them as much as we love ourselves...whether they be friend or foe. 

Have you loved God with all your heart? Have you loved humanity as much as you love yourself? You be the judge. Will you be innocent or guilty on Judgment Day of breaking that Commandment? I'm not judging youI'm asking you to judge yourself before the Day of Judgment. The sentence for breaking this Commandment is death. 

2. "You shall not make for yourself any graven image." 

This means that we shouldn't make a god to suit ourselves, either with our hands or our mind. I was guilty of this. I made a god to suit myself. My god didn't mind a "white" lie or a fib here and therein fact, he didn't exist. He was a figment of my imagination, an "image" which I shaped to suit myself. Is your God the One revealed in Holy scripture? If not, then you have made your own god to suit yourselfyou have committed the oldest sin in the Book. scripture warns that no idolater will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. 

3. "You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain." 

Have you ever taken God's name in vaininstead of using a four-letter word to express disgust, you've used His name? Hitler's name wasn't despised enough to use as a curse word. If you have used His holy name in that manner, you are a blasphemer and will not enter the Kingdom of God. 

4. "Remember the Sabbath Day, to keep it holy." 

I ignored this command for 22 years. Even though God gave me the gift of life, never once did I ask what He required of me. I was guilty of breaking this Commandment. 

5. "Honor your father and your mother." 

Have you always honored your parents in a way that's pleasing in the sight of God? Ask Him to remind you of the sins of your youth. You may have forgotten them, but God hasn't. 

6. "You shall not murder." 

Jesus warned that if we get angry without cause we are in danger of judgment. If we hate our brother, God calls us a murderer. We can violate God's Law by attitude and intent. 

7. "You shall not commit adultery." 

Who of us can say that we are pure of heart? Jesus warned, "You have heard that it was said to those of old, 'You shall not commit adultery.' But I say to you that whoever looks at a woman to lust after her has committed adultery already with her in his heart." Remember that God has seen every thought you have had and every sin you have ever committed. The day will come when you have to face His Law, and we are told that the impure, fornicators (those who have sex before marriage) and adulterers will not enter the Kingdom of God. Punishment for transgression of this Commandment is the death penalty. 

8. "You shall not steal." 

Have you ever taken something that belonged to someone else (irrespective of its value)? Then you are a thiefyou cannot enter God's Kingdom. 

9. "You shall not bear false witness." 

Have you ever told a lie? Then you are a liar. How many lies do you have to tell to be a liar? Just one. The Bible warns that all liars will have their part in the Lake of Fire. You may not think deceitfulness is a serious sin. God does! 

10. "You shall not covet." 

That means we shouldn't
