About Me


Myspace Layouts - Image Hosting - Forums

Brother Joe started his journey into DJ'ing with his first tape player which he used to record breaks from his fledgling record collection and make "pause" beat-tapes at the age of 11. He bought his first set of turntables at 15 and soon after he got an AKAI S-01 sampler and cassette four-tracker. At 17 he made the change that would shape the rest of his musical and artistic vision and stepped up to the SP-1200. The rest is obscure history. Mix tapes, Beats, house parties, clubs, private parties, album production, keyboards, guitars, love and death.

lately Brother Joe has been editing lots of video and here's the short he made for his brother's barbershop, The Kings Club Barbershop--located at 34085 La Plaza, Dana Point CA, 92629 - For an Appointment call (949) 496-4644:
