DJ Gonzo of the M1 Platoon

About Me

I am a Hip-Hop/Soul/Dub DJ in Raleigh, NC.. I am the founder of the East Coast digging crew known as the 'Vinyl Liberation Organization': dedicated to keeping Soul and Hip-Hop on Wax and in the Crates. Our idea is to preserve record digging/vinyl culture among DJs by keeping wax alive. In other words- we are stubborn enough to continue hauling crates around. I am the performance DJ and studio turntabalist for the M1 Platoon out of Washington D.C. They are my favorite MCs, producers and songwriters.Get @ me on Facebook if you really want to be in touch w/ me: Aharon Segal

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

you.
