About Me
Driven by his passion for music, Lee Francisco, a.k.a DJ Leethalmix, can be found at various nightclubs through out the country. His consistent crowd moving abilities, and more than 15 years of experience, cement him as part of the industry's elite group of DJ's.
He attributes his success to hard work, dedication, and a little bit of luck. He was first introduced to the art of DJing at the tender age of 10 years old. Intrigued by the skill of mixing, he began to hone his craft two years later when he was handed down turntables and a mixer.
Soon there after, he found himself DJing for local high schools, garage parties, and semi formal events with a group of friends. During this period, he recognized his ability to play to the crowds and "rock a party". His talent became even more evident when he went away to college and quickly became a fixture in So-Cal’s club scene.
Friends and fans then started spreading the word on his performances, with statements such as, "He’s killing the party!" and "His mixes are sick!". Then one day, casually in conversation, he was asked his DJ name. Playing off of his name, a lady friend of his quickly responded - DJ Leethal! Thus...Leethalmix was born.
Returning home to the Bay Area after college, it didn't take long for Leethalmix to make his presence felt. Understanding this passion and dedication, long-time friend and mentor, DJ Pleez took him under his wing and introduced him to radio.
In 2000, Leethalmix began his radio experience at Rhythmic Radio station - 102.5 KDON. Industry peers noticed his creative mixing skills and ability to break new songs. Opportunities soon followed generating guest spots on other radio stations and nightclubs throughout California, Nevada, and Hawaii.
Presently, you can find Leethalmix rooted in his residency @ Icon Ultra Lounge on Fridays and Saturday nights throughout the San Francisco Bay Area. He is also available for weddings, corporate events, and mix tapes. Leethalmix graduated with a B.A. in Communications from the University of California, at Santa Barbara.
