About Me


"DJ Siesta Soul has become one of the most sought after dj's in the USA. His tentacles of musical expertise have given him the ability to extend his talent beyond Southern California. Siesta Soul has proven time and time again that he's got skillz!" DJ Pat D
------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------
DJ Siesta Soul was definitely born with a passion for music. He began to develop his musical talent at age 6 with the violin. He started playing the drums by age 9, then the piano and accordion at 10. At 12 years old, he was first inspired by DJ Red Alert, while on vacation in NYC.
“I saw him at a street fair in NYC and it was the shit! Two records, two songs… making a whole new track – AWESOME!”
At 15, with a little help from his mom and her sense of humor, he adopted the name Siesta Soul…
“My mom used to say that I was so lazy, I would do everything tomorrow… for right now I am gonna take a siesta!”
He really became serious around his 17th birthday. That is when he purchased his first equipment, and shortly after, met DJ Pat D. at a live remote broadcast for 99.1 KGGI. They became friends, and Pat D. began teaching him the basics of becoming a DJ, he would go home after lessons and practice on his own equipment. He went along with Pat D. to mobile DJ gigs where he would watch and learn… and within a few months he had his first set at Harry C’s “Teen Night” in Riverside. Before the year was up, he had a resident position at Tunetown in Colton for the summer before leaving to N.R.I… Since then, he has been consistently rocking crowds at various events and locations.
Siesta Soul attended the National Radio Institute (N.R.I.) in Washington D.C. for three years, where he received his associate’s degree in Broadcast Communications with an FCC license to operate AM/FM transponders. His externship was served in Los Angeles, CA at 105.9FM KPWR (Power 106). He went on to become an on-air personality at 89.9FM KCRW in Davis, CA, and then 106.5FM KWOD in Sacramento, CA. Other radio debuts include 99.1 FM KGGI – Earthquake Mix Bi-monthly resident, “Overnight’s with Jeff Garcia” and 106.7 FM KROQ – Mansion Halloween, Wienie Roast, and Microbrews. He has also done many remix productions for Super Estrella 107.1FM KSSE, has produced two 80 minute MegaMix CD’s for Friendly Records in Romania (2007-2008), and an Annual Halloween Haunt Mix for Haunt monsters and fans since 2002.
In the DJ scene, Siesta Soul has served as both a resident DJ and done special guest appearances. He has won competitions, such as the Sturges Theater DJ Competition (1997), the Icehouse Battle of the Record Store DJ’s (1998), and was listed on TheDJList.com’s Top 100 DJ’s (2000). Siesta Soul has performed at several Gay Pride Festivals (Long Beach, Hollywood, San Diego, Inland Empire, and Claremont) and has been booked for several events alongside world famous talent such as Superstar DJ Keoki, Richard Vission, Tony B, DJ Enrie, Sandra Collins, The Dynamic Dual, DJ Lynnwood, That Girl DJ, Beat Junkies, La Rok, Rodney O & Joe Cooley, Mix Master Mike, Lighter Shade of Brown, Scratch Pickles, Bad Azz, and Jurassic 5… just to name a few.
When asked who helped to inspire him and where his heart truly lies, he replies,
“Hip hop was from me watching DJ Enrie. Turntablism was DJ Cutting Edge. I am old school... I play all kinds of musik... but my heart loves house and hardstylez.”
Siesta Soul can be found at a variety of venues from upscale clubs to raves in the desert! He was recently signed with a record label, Dynamic Musik and is currently working on an EP of original tracks. He is also working on a musical production for Knott’s Halloween Haunt. Keep your eyes on his calendar for upcoming events!!
