We are the San Diego expansion team of Massive Selector crew, officially formed in late 2006 and launched in March 2007. Spearheaded by two MS crew members originally from the Bay Area (transplanted in San Diego), one of our missions is to bridge the connect between SF and SD, as well as build a community by actively supporting those who share the same passion for the music we love.
==
MASSIVE SELECTOR is a San Francisco based collective of artists, DJs, free thinkers, and corporate refugees who share a passion for art and music culture. Through our event production, media projects, and design we motivate, build and cultivate a left coast community. We are selectors for the masses.
MASSIVE SELECTOR produces events, live shows, and benefits, as well as provide strategic marketing and promotion services online and on the street. The versatility of the company allows it to do web development, marketing programs, graphic design, and talent sourcing (DJs and acts) internally for all projects, services which are also offered to external clients. Recent projects include production of the California leg of an album release tour for King Britt (K7 Records), Wonder-Full: A Tribute to the Wonder of Stevie with DJ Spinna & Bobbito, a concert show featuring BBC Worlwide Live with Gilles Peterson, Dwele, and The Rebirth, Soled Out: A Commemoration to Sneaker Culture, Sneakerpimps: The Worlds Largest Sneaker Tour, SF Int'l Asian American Film Festival's Directions in Sound, J-Dilla Tribute featuring Stones Throw All-Stars Peanut Butter Wolf, Egon + Madlib, DJ Spinna vs. ?uestlove, among other great events.
Hit us up if you want to party, create, motivate, organize, or build... whats life without a hustle?

ABOUT NEO-GEO
DJ NeoGeo started "recycling records" in high school in 1991 before joining his mobile DJ crew, Canned Beats, later that year. After spinning at a variety of mobile gigs for a decade (school dances, wedding parties, company parties, etc), DJ NeoGeo jumped into the Bay Area club DJ circuit playing mostly hip hop, R&B/soul and dancehall. In 2002, DJ NeoGeo, DJ Calalo and Boogie Brown formed their crew The Formula to add their own flavor of DJing and promotions to the San Francisco Bay Area urban party scene: their monthly event, Body Rock (2004-2007) has featured some of the world's best DJs. He has represented Canned Beats and The Formula while showcasing at events in San Francisco, Oakland, San Jose and Seattle and has performed at various events alongside Triple Threat DJs, X-ecutioner Rob Swift, the Beat Junkies, Rock of the Boot Camp Clik/Heltah Skeltah, Dilated Peoples, DJ Neil Armstrong (5th Platoon/Jay-Z), The Rub DJs, Frontline, DJ Revolution, Jurassic 5's DJ Nu-Mark, MC Supernatural and Sadat X (Brand Nubian). In 2009, you can catch DJ NeoGeo every 3rd Saturday for The Formula's HELLA GOOD at Azul San Francisco, every 4th Saturday for LIFT at Etiquette San Francisco and alternating Saturdays at Easy Lounge in Oakland.

ABOUT KING MOST
When his older brother started DJing in the early ’90s it wasn’t too long until King Most himself started mixing and cutting records. Since then he has progressed from the bedroom to sharing the stage with a diverse range of guests that include Biz Markie, DJ Spinna, DJ Spider, The Clipse, SA-RA Creative Partners, Shepherd Fairey, Steve Aoki, Morse Code, Kid Sister, Flosstradamus, Rich Medina, DJ Nu-Mark of Jurrasic 5, Haul & Mason, Quantic, Monk One, and many more.
Aside from bridging genres and people from the Bay Area to Japan to Europe as Kero One’s tour DJ, he’s been able to produce tracks for Aloe Blacc (Stonesthrow/Emanon), Ladybug Mecca (Digable Planets), Rahshan of Crown City, Phat Kat (Jay Dilla) and continually release acclaimed mixes. All the while, he’s been gearing up for his debut album later this year featuring Blu, Ohmega Watts, Black Spade, and more.
