About Me

I'm a DJ. I'm a dancer. I'm a clubber. I'm that guy that would figure out a way to have fun at an insurance seminar. Always smiling. Always positive. Just don't piss me off!! :)

Background from Yahoo search result

My Interests

Dance Music. Dance Music. Dance Music. :) Movies, video games, DALLAS COWBOYS!, political talk seriously is infectious to me now. raverg has put a whole new spin on things.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone into dance music and clubbing in general. Preferably a trancer as I'm a trancer. That's not to say that I don't appreciate a great house DJ! Yeah Derrick Carter!!!

Music:

Trance, house, techno, old-school tekno, deep house, tech-house, trip hop, metal, folk. I'm talking Chris Fortier (for whom I wouldn't be doing what I'm doing if it wasn't for him), Ferry Corsten, Tiesto, Sasha, Digweed, Armin Van Buuren, Eddie Halliwell, Scott Bond, Matt Hardwick, Paul Van Dyk, John OO Fleming, Lange, Agnelli & Nelson, ABOVE & BEYOND!, Sakin & Friends, BBE, Larent Verronez (and all his aliases), Chakra, old Jackpot Records, old Noom records, and old Time Unlimited records. Tool, Metallica, Guns N Roses, Faith No More. Sarah McLachlin, Tori Amos, Maria Naylor. Pink Floyd, Rush, Rolling Stones. Seriously....I could go on forever here.

Movies:

Matrix Trilogy, Star Wars saga, Taken, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Austin Powers, Indiana Jones, Kevin Smith movies.

Television:

24 baby!!!!!

Heroes:

Derrick May - Thank You! Thank You! Thank You! Strings of Life changed MY life in ways I still cannot explain. Chris Fortier - His June 1996 mixtape is truly an inspiration. His change to techno has pushed me yet ANOTHER direction. 10 years later, still inspiring me. DRC - It was in 1996, during a set from her in Dallas, where she inspired me to buy some turntables and get into this crazy thing called dance.
