Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I got into hip hop long ago... I heard it while skateboarding at a younger age, and continued with it.
I later got into graffiti and break dancing, and at the same time the rave scene was a huge deal on the east coast. I hit some parties there and experienced a lot of different things, but the people who truly rocked the crowd were the turntablists. I got my first set of turntables off of some other kids misfortune, and eventually progressed onto a new pair for myself. Here I am today now on the west coast, collaborating with other skilled DJ's and living it up.
I still continue with the rave scene and am mostly into jungle now. I manage 1001 Untouchable Styles, and also part own North Of the Norm Collective, a service providing jungle stages for even the smallest budget (but we rock the biggest budgets like nobodys business).
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I spin at clubs and raves, and it's wicked. It's dope to scratch and have the crowd completely dig it, all while dropping killer jungle mixes.
Your musical influences
I've got a lot of influences... be it sessioning or watching DJ axiom play, having DJ subterriast push ragga my way, or even spinning with my old roomie DJ flex. A lot of people have influenced where I am now and I am stoked too have had such a diverse background of friends helping me along the way.
What equipment do you use?
The wheels of steel, a mixer and my crate are the bare minimum. Give me more and watch out though...
Anything else?
I'm always looking to meet up with people in the North West , so hit me back if you are interseted
