Credentials... devout Buddhist, Yogi, and life-long environmental activist I've taken a break from music production and I'm now working to build New York City's first BIODIESEL production facility, with my good friend and fellow NYC DJ, Arrow Chrome (Brent Baker). As the "Director of Waste Oil Collection" for Tri-State Biodiesel, I manage the truck fleet that navigates the streets of New York City collecting waste cooking oil from over 2000 of the city's restaurants, hotels, supermarkets and corporate cafeterias, all of which is recycled into clean-burning BIODIESEL FUEL. You can see our stickers on the backs of Fresh Direct's trucks, and in the windows of literally thousands of restaurants all over the city.On the musical front, since my first releases on Caffeine, Definitive/Plus8, Grinning and I.M.U.R.Me Records in the mid 90's, I've been known for my unique and extremely musical approach to electronic dance music composition and production. Delving into the diverse and ecclectic realms of krunky dance-hall, glitchy psy-breaks, drum & bass and dub-step, I incorporate guitar and bouzouki playing into bass-heavy Live remix performances, and sometimes appear with my production partners, DJ Haj and the intensely talented M.C. Blacklight as the Freek Factory Live Set...
