MR DELACRUZ

First and foremost a music fan and observer,who appreciates what music has to offer and how its created/manipulated/constructed/formulised/fused/cut up/mixed/..
Much respect to all the originators, creative, abstract, geniuses, godfathers, the perfectionists, the skilled and those who know the know in this global culture/movement/society of what we call music.
the burning question i always ask myself is ’ is it fresh ’
style:? I follow my instincts when it comes to music.
Self taught when it comes to 2 turntables/mixer
other influences include younger brother james dela cruz , Robert Henson, dj voltron, ISP
