Dan FRICKIN D'mantra

My name is Dan D'mantra. I'm in a band.

About Me

..
OK. I guess I'll go ahead and fill this one out.I've been DJing for about 16 years. That's more than half of my life. Over the last few years, I've done quite a bit of production. I've pushed some of it out there, but, alot of it I enjoy by myself and with my friends. I love making music and remixing songs. It helps satisfy my need to create. I'm also a singer, currently in a band called EFFED (America's future favorite band), along with bassist Bradley Magee, drummer Chris, and guitarists and Shaun and Jason. That's the other end of the spectrum for me. I like creating music on all levels. Using my voice and my knack for putting words together, are two more of my passions. I pretty much have built my life around music. It's taken me to so many different places.... all over the country, to the far east, and quite a few po dunk towns I need not mention. The great thing about going to different places and sharing music, is the people and their reactions. Yeah, sometimes it doesn't always turn out the way that you plan. But, it's always a building experience. Regardless, though, I doubt that I will be putting any juvenile in my playlist anytime soon. Nothing against that style of music. It just ain't my thang. I have a great lady in my life, Athena. You can check her out on my friends list. Heaven knows plenty of other people do. hahaha But, hey, comes with the territory. I've got a beautiful car, beautiful pets, a couple of great jobs, a place on the beach... my life's good. I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world. I pride myself on being a worthy person. That means alot to me. I truly believe that when you do nice things for people that it comes back to you. Call it Karma. Call it what you will. Everyone has their beliefs. Everyone has their flaws. I've got some bad habits and I embrace them. haha I'm a funny guy, full of life, and love being the center of attention. Walking down the street is a performance, to me. I have to find a way to make things interesting or I will throw up several of my vital organs, overcome by severe boredom. That's called a social disorder. But, I promise, it's completely harmless. I understand vegetarians, but, I like steak. I'm sick of reality shows, but, I'd like to be on one. Dress socks make my feet sweat. Anyways, I'm about tired of typing. That's the jist of the guy I call "me". Here's the plug part...Check out some of my production at the following locations..
