Bio

I first heard Plastikmans "Sheet One" in 1998 and this was my first exposure to EDM music (knowingly), from here I listened to just about everything from Frankie Bones "Technolo-G", to AK1200's "Fully Automatic", to the Delta Nine vs. Tron mixtape I had received from a friend. But it was Chicago House that really stuck with me and struck a chord. Terry Mullans "Mixed Not Stirred Vol.2" made me fall in love with the music and made me want to start playing music. By the age of 18 (2001) I had thrown my first event, although not nearly as well organized as now a days, it had it's moments. From seeing the looks on peoples faces having fun at my show, I knew what I wanted to do. Attending parties was fun, but seeing people happy at an event I put on, while networking with bigger dj's, and djing at said events made me the happiest. To this day I still listen to just about all genre's of EDM music, but I'm mostly a House / Techno enthusiest.I enjoy throwing down all varieties of House music with the majority lately being Funky, Tech, Acid, and even some Disco / Filtered styles. Essentially anything that has that nice Housey bounce that makes people just want to smile and get on the dance floor. It's all about the good vibes! From playing consistantly almost every weekend all over the state of Wisconsin, to playing in Detroit, Minneapolis, Chicago, and just about everywhere in between. In the past year and a half I've had the awesome experience of warming up the decks for the likes of: Kaskade, Green Velvet, Bad Boy Bill, Terry Mullan, Dara, Dieselboy, Mayhem, Kennedy Jones, Gramophonedizie,Gabriel & Dresden,Lee Combs, Nigel Richards, AK1200,Vaski, Woody Mcbride, and plenty of others.
