About Me


NORWEGIAN & PROUD!


My name is Kenneth Knut Santarelli, usually I just go by Ken.
I am 50% Norwegian, 25% Italian, 15% German and 10% British.
I am a student at Calvary Chapel Bible College in Murrieta, CA. I am a graduate of Desert Sands Charter High School. I've also attended Grace Lutheran School (Elementary/Junior High), Paraclete High School (Freshman & 1st Semester of Sophomore year), Lancaster High School (2nd semester of Sophomore year & Junior year), and Quartz Hill High School (First 3 weeks of Senior year)
I am a sound and media tech at Desert Vineyard Christian Fellowship in Lancaster, CA.
I am a born again Christian. My life is dedicated to serving God. I'm a former member of the LCMS (Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod), which I was apart of for over 10 years.
The styles of music I listen to are Contemporary Praise & Worship music, Christian Hard Rock, Christian Punk & Christian Metal, and Instrumental Chill/Downtempo as well as some Smooth Jazz and Bossa Nova.
My favorite radio station of all time is Living Proof KWTD 91.9 FM .
I drive a 2008 Candy Apple Red Ford Mustang V6. I love going on long road trips with friends that last well into the night, except for the ones where I get too tired to drive and drive anyway.
I wear sunglasses all the time, they are prescription for astigmatism and light sensitivity and I never take them off.
I used to be a radio DJ at Surge Radio 96.3 & 102.1 (monday - thursday nights 8 PM - 10 PM) and on Europa Plus Antelope Valley at FRS Walkie-Talkie Channels 3, 8, 10 & 14 (monday - friday nights 8 PM - 9 PM). However those stations are dead now. I've also worked as program director for Zed Radio, and as a DJ at KMIX Radio (KMIX from gamesnet back in 2003, NOT KMIX on 106.3 in the AV). My voice has also been used in advertisements for "Magic Summer" on Rock radio stations in Paraguay.
The name Surge Radio and the domain SurgeRadio.org along with it's content have been sold to XRQK Radio Networks, whom leases capacity on my server for the operation of Rave HD.
I also used to be a mobile DJ, working under KrebStar Mobile DJ Service, Surge Radio and Dimension's DJing. I offered DJ services from 2003 - 2006. My style was House and Trance music.
I was an editor for Lancaster High School's Eagle Vision during the 2006/2007 school year. I also did the graphics and music, and I anchored occasionally.
I was an editor and actor in the Antelope Valley Union High School District Safety Video, produced at Lancaster High School in the summer of 2007.
I have previously worked as a sound technician at Grace Lutheran Church for 2 years. I have also attended Audio Seminar , a seminar for church sound technicians.

LnHS, soon to be apart of my past, much of it will be best forgotten

A little over a year ago, in December 2005 I made a decision that went against my instincts. After the steadily increasing stress of Paraclete High School, I made a very difficult choice. I had always...
