About Me

Announcing the new label I've started with Dani Deahl in conjuction with Strictly Rhythm - Calamity Jane DOWNLOAD THE FLY BY NIGHT EP ON BEATPORT! CLICK IMAGE BELOW:
My life has been devoted to dance music. I went to music consevatory for composition and I have been Djing since I was 14 and DJing in clubs since I was 18. I started Satellite with Jonathan when I was 22, first by throwing parties (Sputnik, Voyager, etc) and then opening dance music record stores in New York, Atlanta, Boston and the web.
I personally think that dance music is the most original alive music being created today. Its the only genre where there are 200 new titles a week and anyone with a passion has a true opportunity to get their record out and be heard. Thus, my life has been all about that.
I also love helping people get to their goals.I appreciate all I've learned from creating and being in the business and I like sharing that with others.
A Zen poet once said "A person who is a master in the art of living makes little distiction between their work and their play, their labor and their leisure, their mind and their body, their education and their recreation, their love and their religion. They hardly know which is which and simply pursue their vision of excellence and grace whatever they do, leaving others to decide whether they are working or playing. To them they are always doing both."I'd say that is the life I strive to lead.
If you are a label or artist, please add my myspace music profile below - thank you

Creative, brilliant, artistic, hard working, passionate, people who love what their life is about and are dedicated to accomplishing what they want to bring into the world no matter what.

Music:

All amazing musical house music, especially samba house. All good dance underground dance music of any genre. Authentic astetically old school soulful stuff like Stevie Wonder or Jill Scott. Great soulful disco. Some uncheezy salsa. So to sum it up, latiny, soulful, dancable vibe filled music. Here is a historic meeting of the minds about music: Classic:
