MY JOURNEY INTO MUSIQUE & DANCE BEGAN IN THE SUMMER OF '63 WHEN I WON ROLLING STONES TICKETS ON KTSA AM RADIO IN SAN ANTONIO,TEXAS. I WAS CALLER NUMBER 9. I GOT TO SIT ON THE FRONT ROW. AND IT WAS THE ROLIING STONES 1ST NORTH AMERICAN TOUR! EVENTS LIKE THE JFK ASSASSINATION & THE VIETNAM WAR DIVIDED THE COUNTRY. AND PSYCHEDELIC MUSIC UNITED A NEW COUNTER CULTURE. THEN CAME 1967 AND THE SUMMER OF LOVE WAS BORN. MUSICAL ARTISTS JIMI HENDRIX, OTIS REDDING, JANIS JOPLIN, IKE & TINA TURNER, THE GRATEFUL DEAD AND JEFFERSON AIRPLANE EXPLODED ON THE SAN FRANCISCO MUSIC SCENE AND MY LOVE & PASSION FOR THE MOVEMENT BECAME A FOUNDATION, NOT JUST A TREND. FAST FORWORD TO 2007. THE ROLLING STONE MAGAZINE CELEBRATES THE SUMMER OF LOVE'S 40TH ANNIVERSARY. OUR COUNTRY IS ONCE AGAIN DIVIDED BY WAR AND UNITED BY AN EVER EVOLVING DANCE MUSIQUE CULTURE. THE PROOF & VALIDATION COMES AS EVENTS LIKE THE WINTER MUSIC CONFERENCE/MIAMI, SOLAR FEST, THE GATHERING & GLOBAL DANCE FESTIVAL (ALL IN THE GREATER DENVER)WITH THE COMBINED ATTENDANCE OF OVER 16,000 PEOPLE ALL WITHIN SEVEN WEEK PERIOD. (JUNE 16TH - JULY 21ST '07)
SO MUSIQUE HAS BEEN MY PASSION FOR OVER 44 YEARS EVER SINCE SEEING & HEARING ALL THE LOCAL LIVE MUSIQUE BANDS IN AUSTIN, TEXAS (ATX)THE THUNDERBIRDS, STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN, TIMBUK 3, CHRISTOPHER CROSS, FASTBALL
PLUS THE TOURING SUPER GROUPS::GRATEFUL DEAD: THE PRETENDERS: THE CARS: ELECTRIC LIGHT ORCHESTRA: THE WHO: VAN HALEN: DEPECHE MODE: ERASURE: PINK FLOYD:U2: FAITH NO MORE: GUNS & ROSES: THE EAGLES: RED HOTT CHILI PEPPERS:AND THE SUPERSTARZ: MICHAEL JACKSON: PRINCE: MARVIN GAYE: DIANA ROSS: BILLY IDOL: DON HENLY: BILLY JOEL: BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN: MADONNA; CINDI LAUPER: CHRIS ISAAK: BETTE MIDLER: YVONNE WASHINGTON.
MANY WERE PIONEERS IN THE MUSIQUE INDUSTRY, FIGHTING BACK THE CORPORATE CRAP THAT IS RAMPANT AND, AS MANY BANDS WILL TELL YOU, UNMERCIFULLY BRUTAL & UNFORGIVING.
I LUV ALL MUSICAL GENRES BUT STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN WILL ALWAYS BE & REMAIN MY NUMBER ONE MUSICAL HERO AND BE ONE OF MY BEST FRIENDS! FROM WAY BACK IN AUSTIN.TX. DURING THE 80's.,LENNY, THE INSTRUMENTAL SONG DEDICATED TO HIS 1ST WIFE, IS MY FAVORITE ALLTIME SONG. I COULDN'T FIND IT HERE SO LITTLE WING IS THE NEXT BEST INSTRUMENTAL SONG.
HIS RENDITIONS OF JIMI HENDRIX'S SONGS WERE ASTONISHING & ELECTRIFYING. I CAN NEVER FORGET HIS PUNISHING PERFORMANCE OF HIS GUITAR, NAMED LENNY, BOUNCING IT ACROSS THE STAGE, PLAYING IT BEHIND HIS HEAD AND GNAWING AT THE STRINGS WITH HIS TEETH AT FITZGERALD'S/HOUSTON.TX. IN 1983. A TRUE ARTIST AND LEGEND. MAY HE REST IN ETERNAL PEACE.
IN THIS CENTURY, I LUV ALL GENRES OF DANCE MUSIQUE, ESPECIALLY THE DANCEABLE TRAXX PLAYED ON OLD SKOOL VINYL AND TURNTABLES. BUT ENDORSED THE DIGITAL FORMAT WHEN DAT TAPES CAME OUT. THEN CDS. THEN DIGITAL DOWNLOADING BUT HAVE NEVER BOOTLEGGED ANY MUSIQUE THOUGH EVERYONE ELSE DOES. MY LUV OF DANCE MUSIQUE STARTED WHEN I HEARD PLANET SOUL.OUR CREW COVERED EVENTS UNDER 24/7 DANCE CULTURE MAGAZINE FOR 4 YRS. FROM THE 1ST CAFFEINE TOUR W/FRANKIE BONES TO RABBIT IN THE MOON TO KEOKI TO ICEY TO DJ DAN TO UBERZONE TO ROY DAVIS JR. AND FINALLY AK1200, THE 1ST DJ WE EVER BOOKED.
I HAVE WORKED FEVERISHLY & DILIGENTLY NON-STOP AS THE COLORADO PROMOTIONS & STREET-TEAM DIRECTOR FOR THE PAST 3 YEARS UNTIL OCT. '05, AT DENVER'S BIGGEST & MOST SUCCESSFUL NIGHTCLUBS: SERENGETI, TWO:AM AFTERHOURS, FUNKY BUDDHA, VINYL & THE CHURCH SEVEN CANDLES, WHICH WAS VOTED NUMBER 1 NIGHT CLUB IN NORTH AMERICA IN '03 & '04 BY CLUB SYSTEMS INTERNATIONAL. FROM '04-'05, A COLLECTIVE OF FRIENDS, ALONG WITH THE INCREDIBLE HELP OF CRYSTAL CLEAR DESIGNS, WE LAUNCHED URBANSTREETBEATS.COM, A DENVER DANCE COMMUNITY SUPPORT SYSTEM SITE. WE SUPPORT ALL DANCE CLUBS.
AS A COLLECTIVE WE ARE TOTALLY COMMITTED TO OUR NETWORKING, PREPARING FOR A MADD SCHEDULE OF EVENTS THRU NEXT SUMMER!
OUR EXPERIENCE ALONG THIS JOURNEY CONTINUES TO BE AMAZING. MADD PROPZ TO THE CHRISTOUS, BRAD ROULIER FORMERLY TOGETHER PRODUCTIONS AND NOW THE FOUNDER OF BEATPORT, FOR BRINGING SASHA & DIGWEED, TIMO MAAS, DJ DAN, ICEY, LOCO DICE, FATBOY SLIM & SANDRA COLLINS. AND THE TRIAD DRAGONS FOR THEIR LOVE & COMMITMENT TO GLOBAL FRIDAYS, THE CAFFEINE TOUR & GLOBAL DANCE FEST. PLUS ALL THE AWESOME DJS/ARTISTS/PRODUCERS.MIKE McCRAY/SPEED OF SOUND// FOR INSTALLING THE SOUND SYSTEMS.
BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, PROPZ TO YOU, THE DANCE MUSIQUE MOVEMENT & COMMUNITY, THAT SUPPORT OUR INDEPENDENT PROMOTERS, ROOFLESS, MAHESH, ABOVEGROUND, AMX AFTERHOURS.. YOU KEEP THE SCENE FRESH & ALIVE SO THAT IT CAN FLOURISH & THRIVE!
BTW.....I HAVE ALWAYS LUVED WHAT TECHNOLOGY CAN PROVIDE TO THE HUMAN TOUCH, INCLUDING ALL THE LASTEST FROM TECHNICS, ABLETON, PIONEER AND STANTON, WHICH CAN HELP CREATE THE MOST BASIC TRIBAL DRUM BEATS, TO THE MOST ADVANCED TECHNO SOUNDZ. BUT IT IS THE DJ/PRODUCER THAT ULTIMATELY MAKES THE SOUNDZ, NOT MACHINES. THEY ARE PEOPLE NOT ROBOTS. BUT WHEN PEOPLE ALLOW MACHINES TO DOMINATE THE MUSIQUE, THEY ARE NO LONGER IN CONTROL. THE ROBOTS ARE.
IT'Z ALL MUSIQUE AND IT'Z ALL GOOD. SET YOUR MIND, BODY & SOUL FREE:: TO LIVE! TO LOVE! & TO DANCE!
