About Me

Put here to serve as a breath of fresh air to the ever aging music industry the man Ox Banga was born. A native of the city of brotherly love, Philadelphia, Dj Ox is a name that the masses should check for in the coming years. He is what the game needs he is innovative, willing to take risks, and most importantly at the age where he is mixing amongst a crowd of peers.
Dj Ox Banga is twenty three years of age and currently finishing up a Degree in marketing from the prestigious institution of Morehouse College. He is a new comer in terms of Dj’ing Ox just recently obtained his first pair of 1200’s in spring of 2001. Previous to that he simply was using whatever he could find to rock the crowd, in total Ox has been Dj’ing all of six years.
Atlanta Georgia has been the inspiration for Ox to take his Dj’ing to the next level. In 2000 when he entered school at Morehouse he saw many people who called themselves Dj’s, however something just was not right none of them were him. Philadelphia had bred him to have a critical ear towards people technique and transition, and watching others caused him to want to bring that classic Philly Dj sound to the south.
The goal from then on out became to become more skilled in technical ability than his peers. This took help from outside sources, returning to Philly in the summer Ox united with a crew of older Dj’s by the names of Storm and Brian B, who helped him learn not only technique, but also exposed him to music which his peers may have been unaware of. This training brought him to a new level and gave him the base he needed to be strong and different among a group of people who were often clones of the mediocre.
Returning to Atlanta Ox began his quest to help what he considered to be a hurting music scene. College became the way in, he began with small house parties and events, but it was not long before a change would come. A college promoter by the name of Shawn Kennedy of Black Ceazar entertainment heard him spin and immediately made him his official Dj at every event. The Venue was always the same a club by the name of Studio Central, this was the place where Ox had the freedom to experiment with all he had learned under the watching eyes of Dj Storm and Brian B, whom he refers to as his mentors.
To his surprise what he had learned was not just accepted but was praised, the young crowd loved the way ox new how to throw in the Old School Classics with the new music. He became well respected within the college scene and soon grew in talent and ability to feel the crowd. It became evident Ox needed to do more and began his quest to step up to the next level. With Atlanta as the base he began to look to who were the hottest and most powerful in club promotion. If you did not know now you know in Atlanta that means Cloud 9, they were at the cutting edge of the grown and sexy and Ox wanted to be there too. Linking with the Aphilliates and Cloud 9 Ox has seen a whole new level of entertainment and is only thirst for more. He has spun for Kelis, Musiq Soulchild, Paul Wall, Chameleonaer and more.
The future is Ox of the Aphilliates now PAY ATTENTION!
