About Me

Stefan Millea is the name, I DJ as PunkMasterTechs, or as Danny Squiggles likes to say: "The PMT"I live in Bloomington, MN with my girlfriend, Heidi. We spend most of our free time watching cartoons and raving, hard.I currently work as the Asst. GM at the Canterbury Inn in Shakopee, MN. I am taking classes part time at the University of Minnesota.I am affiliated with DC Productions. We do parties in the Minneapolis area. Check out the DC DJs page on the site for mixes from myself as well as a slew of other awesome DJs.That's about it, I pretty much work during the week so that I can party on the weekends. Check me out at the next DC show, or hit me up on AIM.Check out my website at punkmastertechs.com for the latest updates and info :)Be sure to check below for flyers/links to upcoming shows.PLUR

My Interests

I like most things :)In particular, I love playing records and partying. It is always a blast to go raving with my friends. Hardcore parties are where it's at because you just can't beat the vibe that the hardcore kids bring.I am a huge New England Patriots fan. From September to January my attention is on them and anything related to football. Heidi hates it when I listen to sports talk radio in the car, but sometimes you just gotta "find a talk radio station and turn it up so it BUMPS!"I love spending time with Heidi, even if it is just hanging out watching cartoons, she makes everything that much better :)

I'd like to meet:

It would be awesome to meet Tiesto... LOL. I kid, I kid.I'm a huge Patriots fan, so getting the chance to meet any of them, or Bill Belicheck would be sweet.There are not a lot of people that I have a strong desire to meet. Mostly anybody with a good mindset and positive outlook. I love meeting new people, whether at a party, bar or club, talking to new faces is always entertaining.Make sure to hit me up when you see me out. I try to be receptive of new people and welcome them into what little scene is left in Minimalapolis ;)View All Friends | View Blog | Add Comment

Music:

I love Happy Hardcore. There is so much energy and awesome packed into it that it is impossible to hate it. Anyone who says they hate happy hardcore probably sits in their bedroom, listening to Shooting Star and worrying about what their friends would think if they knew. All the while, their friend is across town, relaxing on the couch while listening Love of My Life and crying tears of pain because they can't share their love of Happy Hardcore with their friend.Oh the irony.Other than HHC, I like most other kinds of music. Techno is hard for me to get into sometimes, but their is some good shit out there.I used to be huge into punk, but that has cooled off somewhat, I still dig listening to my Punk cd's from time to time.Big fan of System of A Down. The rock/metal genre confuses me most of the time, but there is definitely some stuff out there that I can get in to.I absolutely love Atmosphere. I have been a fan of their's for years and will continue to be. The music is ever changing and can be totally random or have a deeper meaning to it. If you've never listened to their stuff, you should check em out. It's at least worth a listen :)Gotta love the local DJs. Squiggles rocks everyone's socks off. The Ben's, Lime and Clear hold their own with the best of 'em. There really is soooooo much talent in this town just in need of exposure, and a lot of it can be found at the DC website :D

Movies:

Even though we have Netflix, I have fallen out of watching movies regularly.I like most types of movies, although the super gore slasher shit gets old really quickly. Some favorites are: Lord of the Rings(All of em) The original Star Wars Matrix SLC Punk Run Lola Run Human Traffic The Boondock Saints ...There are so many, making a list is kinda pointless. I am a big fan of drama/action drama. I also enjoy a good documentary but only if it is well done.

Television:

Adult Swim, nuff said.Law and Order is always a favorite, SVU for the WIN!Family Guy is so funny, it is quite possibly the best show out there. Robot Chicken is a close second.Discovery channel, History channel, etc. All those learning things are good. I am a huge fan of Deadliest Catch, although Heidi doesn't care for it too much.

Books:

I used to read ALL THE TIME but not so much anymore. Lord of the Rings and The Dark Tower series are fantastic.The Vampire Chronicles is a great series of books.Harry Potter owns. I love it.

Heroes:

There are very few people that I consider 'heroes'. But there are many people that I look up to and aspire to be like.I think, one person who stands out to me is Heidi :) There is a lot of strength as well as a huge heart and I am reminded every day why I lover so much.In terms of music, Danny Squiggles is someone that I look up to and try to emulate certain aspects of. I have been rocking out to his mixes for a long time and being able to play with him at 'Sign of the Times' and again at 'Buy You A Drank' means a lot to me. DJ Spree has probably had more of an influence on the way I play records than any other DJ. It was his Pokemania mix that got me into Happy Hardcore in the first place.
