About Me

TIGERSTYLE PRODUCTIONS I'm straight "Old School"Myself & some of my close friends are what you call, "WORKING DEE JAYS". We're not part of the part time club(people who have the day job & do it as a hobby). This is a way of life for us, which means that we are extremly passionate in what we're doing. We live it everyday & take it serious as hell!! You can catch me spinning at several lounges & clubs, so if you live in NY or visit here frequently, send me your email here & I'll add you to my mailing list. It's SPRING/SUMMER once again, and you know that we'll be hit'n you with that flavor that you can only find in NYC!!! I don't send out junk mail. I usually send out two blasts a week with all the gigs I'm doing & relative information.
FELLOW DJ'S & PROMOTERS: DON'T SEND ME COMMENTS WITH FLYERS OF PARTIES THAT YOU'RE DOING. MY PAGE IS TO PROMOTE PARTIES THAT I'M DOING & IT MAKES NO SENSE FOR ME TO STEER PEOPLE IN A DIFFERENT DIRECTION. I HAVE SEVERAL RESIDENCIES IN THE CITY & IF I'M SPINNING ON THE DAY YOU'RE THROWING YOUR GIG, DON'T EXPECT ME TO "APPROVE" YOUR PROMOTIONAL COMMENT ON "MY"SPACE. I'M ON MOST OF YOUR MAILING LISTS, SO I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE THROWING... I MYSELF NEVER SEND COMMENTS TO ANY OF MY FELLOW DJ FRIENDS WITH FLYERS FOR MY PARTIES ATTACHED....I SEND THEM TO ALL MY FRIENDS WHO DON'T DO THEIR OWN PARTIES. I'M WRITTING THIS BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO OFFEND ANY OF YOU, BUT I THINK YOU UNDERSTAND...IT'S ROUGH IN THESE STREETS!! THANKS
NOTE: If you need to reach me, please send me a message here or go to www.djcato.com Website is under construction, but you can email me from there. FOR FACEBOOK SEARCH CATO HERRING Thanks Now... I'm from Friedberg,Germany. I'm a Cancer Year of the Tiger child.... My mother is German, My father is African American, Lakhota & Seminole.
