About Me


I am Reid Speed.
I am 1/3 of BREAKDOWN and 1/2 of BEEP!
I make and play a vast selection of disparate sounds, from bassline 4/4 to drum & breaks, electro, house, speed garage and beyond. The one thing it all has in common is the serious BASS. Hear me to believe me- I will change your life through music!
I have been nominated to be America's Best DJ so please visit http://www.djtimes.com/bestdj and vote for me!
:)

My bassline/breaks/house bookings are done through Gavin @ Natural Progression (www.nat-progression.com) and drum & bass through Contagious ((www.contagiousmusiq.com).

I am currently sponsored by NATIVE INSTRUMENTS, SHURE, MATIX GIRLS, JUNKYTEES, and GRIDNC. I use a MAC G5 running Logic, Ableton Live, Traktor DJ, Komplete, Recycle & Peak. PCs suck!
