About Me



EMCEE T Producer, Recording Artist. Emcee T began in '95 with the community online forums, freestyle battling with Jin the MC before his rise to freestyle king on BET, television gold.

Creating his own productions with state-of-the-art technology, Emcee T established T'z Studio and released the 2005 "Hard Headed: The Mixtape CD" in a single run of 2,500 units, selling out within a week at local Bay Area record stores, Tower, Amoeba and Rasputin Records. T'z Studio and ZTY Beats established "Pushin' the Bay" concert series, showcasing upcoming independent performing artists in R&B and Hip Hop. Bay Area legends, Ray Luv & multi-platinum selling artist, Rappin' 4-Tay (Players Club) are featured on Emcee T's premiere album, "Underestimated," premiering in Spring 2008 with award tour.

Emcee T is televised! "Pushin' The Bay" appears on television every 1st & 3rd Monday of the month @ 8:30-9pm on Channel 26 TV. The Chinese King of the Bay CKOTB: www.emceet.com


METRO House DJ. Global local jetsetting residencies in San Francisco USA & Shanghai China, the RACINGMIX sound is described by the musically adept audience on either side of the Pacific: Metro's savvy crowd enlightened with lush electric music rubbed with afro jazz and sensual vocals.

Performing since 2001, Metro entered the famed underground "Scuba" parties in the late nineties. Produced by Bruno Ybarra's Naked Music, resident DJs Mauricio Avilies, Franky Boissy, Julius Papp and Miguel Migs have since put San Francisco on the map internationally: SF is home to Deep House Music.

Inspired by expression, ZTY Beats formed Deep House Soldiers, a collective of musicians, producers, fashion photographers producing parties with trademark drinks as the Metro, a vodka tonic with lime.

Metro ZTY Beats compiled, mixed and produced, "Temper RACINGMIX" (2005, ZTY Beats). Acclaimed as "late night driving beats," the RACINGMIX canvas of sound ranges from sultry melodies to caffeinated percussions.

Deep House Soldiers, every Saturday, 7p-9p at Anu Bar SF, in San Francisco's SOMA district. www.deephousesoldiers.com


EHASH Sound Engineer, DJ. Hip Hop, Trance, House, eHash is a renaissance man that can spin all genres for all party people. ZTY Beats collaborated with MySpace to introduce San Francisco's North Beach with, "Secret Saturdays." ZTY Beats performing artist, Emcee T, highlighted on-the-fly hip hop productions, and DJ eHash introduced Deep Groove, a combination of "Mushroom Hip Hop" and "Blunted House Lounge".
