About Me

Professor Ping brings his blend of roasted beats to Charleston, SC after a 16 year audio-assault on the rooftops, warehouses and finer drinking establishments throughout Boston, the Berkshires, New York, parts of "Dirty Jersey" and even Pittsburgh, PA. Coming out of the "two turntables and a microphone" school of DJing, the rig now consists of, but is not limited to, the following: two Pioneer CDJ-800MK2 scratch players, a Numark DXM06 mixer, the ubiquitous Technics turntables, a hot-rodded iPod, the mic, a minidisc player, a Blackberry Curve, baby toys for percussion, and many, many custom CDs for the occasion.
