We've had Myspace pages for all the Bootie parties and individual Adrian and Mysterious D pages, but now we FINALLY have this one dedicated to our A plus D created mashups and DJ listings of when and where we'll be spinning! We plan on updating this soon with more of the press and info from the AplusD.net homepage!
60-SECOND BIO: He's a rock singer-turned-DJ who fronts the world's only mashup band. She's a party girl-turned-DJ who helped create the biggest mashup club in the world. Together, they're A plus D – as in Adrian & the Mysterious D. Known mostly as the couple who helped bring mashup culture to America, the duo have forged a reputation as crowd-pleasing selectors who not only shamelessly bridge the gap between genres, but between the alternative and the mainstream. This is best evidenced by the success of their club Bootie, the first mashup bootleg party in the United States, now the biggest mashup club night in the world, with 8 monthly Bootie parties on 3 continents, with varioius one-offs all over the world!
Launched in San Francisco in 2003, Bootie has attracted mashup DJs from around the globe, and the couple have since launched sister clubs in Los Angeles, New York City, Paris, Munich, Boston, and Brisbane (Australia) and new: Berlin -- with Bootie one off parties from Mexico City to Hong Kong to Beijing (twice!) - further solidifying their renown as pioneers and galvanizers of the international mashup scene.
In addition to that, the duo have played DJ gigs of all styles, audiences and sizes, all over the world. They've played alongside some of the world's most popular bands and DJs, and have DJed at parties from giant festivals to high-end upscale events to down-n-dirty alternative divebars.
