About Me

I consider myself a very down to earth, genuine, good hearted/spirited individual. I wear my heart on my sleeve and im a very passionate person. Best way to describe me is i can either be your best friend or your worst enemy. Scorpio trait i guess. I spend a lot of my time celebrating music and life with my close friends. Im suprised im not immune to alcohol by now. j/k. I truly believe I have a great ear for music. I wish I could show everybody that there is so much more out there than whats on the radio. The passion for spinning burns deep inside and to me its the greatest form of expression. To make people smile and dance and have the music touch their soul is an ultimate high!!

My Interests

All Sports, die hard Raiders,A's, and Warriors fan (dont laugh) at least im loyal. music (of course), im an avid video game dork too, capoeira

Music:

Has always been a passion of mine. Its always their for me when nothing seems to be going right and its more euphoric than any drug or alcohol, but my favorite genre's are;Soulful house, Jazz, Brazilian Jazz(Bossa Nova), Rock (Hendrix,Metallica) Also Michelle Branch is amazing as well as Norah Jones. Two groups I would buy any Cd of without having to hear it first would be the Brand New Heavies and Jamiroquai. Old school Hip Hop, I mean real hip hop, none of todays radio garbage. My favorite all time groups are De La Soul, Tribe Called Quest, Gangstarr, Digable Planets, Souls of Mischief, Pharcyde, Black Moon, Del the funky Homosapien who's one of the most underated rapper's of all time. My favorite Dj's and inspirations are Ron Trent, Kerri Chandler, Glenn Underground, Osunlade,Ian Friday,DJ Spinna, Timmy Regisford, Kevin Hedge (Blaze), Marques Wyatt, Frankie Feliciano, Mr V, Alix Alvarez, Marlon D,Rich Medina,Aaron Ross, Joe Claussell, Pope and Oji, Andy Compton (The Rurals), local icons David Harness, and Patrick Wilson.

Movies:

Im pretty much a war movie buff, and a star wars dork, and no i dont camp out for the movie before it opens......lol. Last Samurai was awsome, Black Hawk Down, Full Metal Jacket, Rules of Engagement, Tears of the Sun, Band of Brothers, Braveheart, 13th Warrior, Whale Rider and Once were Warriors, (Maori culture fascinates me) and one of my all time favorites Desperado. Cant forget the comedies too. Office Space, Meet the parents...and last but not least any movie from the legend Bruce Lee.
