About Me


Click HERE to check out other Liquid X Artists

I recently started getting involved with the kick-ass rock band, TRIPKIT. I wrote the backing tracks for the track CANT HOLD ON and will continue to write as long as they will have me. I will be basically a glorified button pusher and a good ear/sound man for the band. Check out the TRIPKIT site (#1 in my top friends). MAKE SURE YOU CHECK THEM OUT!!!

I got my start in electronic music back when I was in High School. I was working at Blockbuster Video at the time. My manager, Mike Schemp, kind of took me under his wing and introduced me to Electronic Music. I used to sit and watch Mike spin till like 5 in the morning. Well it did not take long until I had a set of decks myself. I did the club thing in Shreveport, Lousiana, spinning for free drinks, doing house party's and shit, but never really did anything more than that.

Well I had to get the hell out of Louisiana because I was going NOWHERE FAST. So I sold my tables and I moved to Jacksonville, Florida with my brother Steve. I was doing great but not really anything musically. On October 22, 2005 I was walking home from a club in Jacksonville Beach and was robbed and shot twice in the chest. I am now paralyzed from the waist down and will never walk again. I moved from Jacksonville to Largo, Florida where I now live. Life is GREAT despite what happend. I got some new gear (Thanks Brian and Kurt) and have started DJing once again. I am also producing my own tracks. Check out the tracks and let me know what you think. I hope you like. Thanks for listening.
