About me:

I've been spinning for 20 years now...wow...time certainly flies when you're having fun! Before that, I was a very angry drummer in an original rock band called Fistful of Rumors. Before that, I can remember trying to mix together cassette tapes (well at least I didn't say 8 tracks) and before that I was playing the uke with my grandfather. I've always surrounded myself with music, all kinds. I have always loved dance music...especially tribal. When I began my DJ career, I was fascinated with mixing vinyl. I loved finding perfect mixes and I'd try to keep them going as long as possible. It was an easy transition from drummer to DJ and I haven't looked back. I love the energy and the euphoria that dance music can create. I've never done drugs but I certainly get high off of the music. Dance music is- and continues to be- my drug of choice. I can't get enough! I'm always searching for new tracks. Always on the look out for that next big one. Remixing is also huge passion of mine. I'm in my studio at least 3 times a week...unless I have a remix project...then I'm there day and night. It's an incredible feeling of accomplishment to complete a track and when I play it out, I get high all over again. My first track was signed to Nervous Records in 1994...I think. It was called The Music. My second was Mommy Dearest- which was a big success in my hometown. I still get requests for it. Then I did a lot of experimental mixes...to try to find and develop my sound...but it wasen't until just recently that I have been content with my work. I completed a 2006 remix of Madonna's Frozen for our Winter Party that got plays from Chris Cox, Junior Vasquez, Mike Cruz, Eddie X and Glenn Friscia. [It's not for sale but I'll be happy to send anyone a copy!] My Temptation remix was on Junior's Satellite Radio Play list, and Chris Cox has featured my remix of Ciara- Get up on his XM Mix Show. I've completed a remix for The Perry Twins feat Jania called Activate My Body, which went to number 3 on the Billboard Dance Chart! I've completed remixes for Yoko Ono [went to #1], The Jay Men, Better Than Ezra, Michael M, Ronen Mizrahi, Edson Pride, Janice Grace, Satine, Joelapussy, DJW, Randy Friess, Stevie Jewel and Gioia. Erin Hamilton, EG Daily, Rachel Panay, Clint Crisher, Win, and Jipsta are coming soon!!! More to come...I LIVE FOR THIS!!!!
