ABOUT ME:
Hey, I'm Medley (that's my real name, not some handle I came up with); it's nice to meet you. Thank you for taking the time out of you busy schedule of looking trough people's funny pictures and rambling blogs to check me out. I'm a Graphic Designer, an artist, a promoter and a Dj. I am a very hard working entrepreneur, always hustling. So far it's been going pretty well for myself, I haven't had a "real job" in over two years. I'm not ball'n out of control just yet, but hopefully one day. I'm a strict vegetarian, I always have been and I always will be. Meat sucks, it's pretty gross I think.
I'm focusing mostly on Deejaying currently. I'm into spinning electro, hip hop, Baltimore club, rhythm & blues, soul, funk, house, retro, new wave, disco, reggae, trip hop, lo-fi, jazz, rock'n'roll, breaks and more. I play for the crowd, not for myself. Meaning I don't stand behind the decks "musically masturbating" selecting what I think is good and trying to educate the masses into liking what I'm into (okay, yeah, I do that a little bit but in a sly way). Put me in front of any crowd, young or old, mainstream or underground, urban or suburban, rich or poor, straight or gay, hip or nerdy and I'll please them. I especially have a knack for making the girls go wild.
I make my own remixes/mashups/blends/extended
cuts of mainstream "pop
culture" music and put an underground twist on it. I'm known for
my smooth, long transitions between tracks with lots of layering, even
when I'm spinning hip-hop. Most hip-hop deejays think hip-hop mixing
is about cutting to the next track quickly, a little "chicka-chicka-chicka" and
then dropping in the next track on the downbeat. Quick and painless
mixing. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but I do things
differently, each transition between songs creates a live remix, much
like a house Dj. Partially because I'm not a turntablist, (scratching
and juggling is not my forte) and partially because of my vast musical
influences.
