His Name is Tony but better known as DJ Tony Tone. He was born in Boston, Massachusetts and raised in Miami, Florida. He started my interest in music at a very young age, and started DJing small house parties by the age of 9. When he moved to Miami, FL in 1999, he listened to the radio constantly. His favorite stations being POWER 96 and 99 JAMS! He would fall deep into the mixes, especially the "Mid Day Mash Up's" & the "5 O'Clock Traffic Jam's" on Power 96! He took took the tables at small parties, doing things the old fashioned way, with crates of vinyl, two Numark turntables & a Numark 2 channel mixer, He learned the basics, like beat-matching and such, so it wasn't a biggie. Upon his move to the Treasure Coast, he found a desperate need for music since everything is plain and dry up here, coming from a multicultural region like Miami, to a dry-culture redneck-dominated rural town. BIG DIFFERENCE! So Tony pioneered and looked for others like himself, and found a few. Paul Thompson (AKA Spyda!), and Tariek Leith (AKA Jamaican Gangsta). By this time, he had sold his equipment and began promoting himself using mixtapes. He also purchased newer but used equipment, and practiced higher level performances, because he wanted to stick out from the crowd. The days of the "Mid Day Mash Up's" and such were none existent in the Treasure Coast, so he wanted to be the best he could possibly be.

"The beats are pounding. My heart races. Their blood pumps. My pleasure comes - from seeing feeling ‚ the crowd. I take the people to a place where the music surges through their veins. For that moment, the music becomes them. They're having the time - of their life. And at the center of it all — me! Spinning and mixing the music that overcomes the venue. It's a feeling of fame, fun and fortune, rolled into one emotion. I'm into it as much as they are. But I'm still in control. And it's what drives me. Feeling the crowd, knowing what to mix next. keeps them going all night. This is my life. This is what it's like being a Club DJ." - Denon DJ [I AM]
