I am here for Friends

About Me

Hi! Although I do love to talk about myself I'm not such a fan of writing about myself. So go ahead and ask me a question.I grew up in Madison, WI and moved to Chicago in 2000. I DJ semi-regularly around Chicago playing house, downtempo and some electro type beats. When asked I tell people that I play basslines instead of genres. I love living in Chicago. We have the cream of the band/music/DJ crop living here and they play out all the time so there's no excuse for not catching a great act when you can.about new friends:I won't add you as my friend if I don't know you personally (or respect you professionally) so please don't be offended if your request is denied. This goes for your music profile as well.If we are friends or even just casual acquaintances you can be confident that I will gladly accept your advances.Please note: I will not approve any comments with fliers/ads/plugs, so please don't be offended when your comments don't make the cut.
