I was born and raised in NYC en EL Barrio, raised in da boogie down BX, started mixing music at 16 yrs, old back in'78 with my first Panasonic Technic equipment complete with Technic turntables which later became the turntables of choice in the industry, got my first gig DJing in a small spot by Kennedy Airport in a little hotel by the Vanwyck expwy (Kasbah Club), joined IDRC Record Pool in 1980 and within a short period of time was also a part of the Feedback Committee who used to report weekly to 98.7 kiss fm, WBLS, and 92 KTU what tracks were hot at the clubs weekly so that radio stations can place those tracks in regular rotation, also was a guest DJ for the 98.7 Kiss FM Summer Clean Up Concerts and the Concert Series for 98.7 Kiss fm and the NYC Board Of Education in NYC public schools. I had a mixed show program at WBLS from 2am - 4am and at times from 4am - 6am on Fridays and Saturday early mornings or late night which ever you were in. I dealt with AL Roberts at WBLS who was in charge of promotions. Moved to Puerto Rico and played there at the Acropolis in my hometown in Manati, Puerto Rico for a couple of gigs. That is where I met legendary DJ Danny Rodriguez who was resident DJ at the top club in Puerto Rico, San Juan San Juan Disco. Got home sick and return to NYC el Barrio (Spanish harlem) again. Became resident DJ at Wings Night Club in Queens, NY at the Traveler's Hotel across from Laguardia Airport and had a chance to spin there with legendary DJ Tony Humphries who was just starting to get popular with mastermix sessions at 98.7 Kiss FM and was a guest DJ at my club Wings, then switched to Skate Key in the Bronx...not the new one but the old one up on Westchester Ave. and after Skate Key, became DJ at USA Roller rink in Fort Hamilton Pkway, Bklyn, NY. Was there for a hot moment and then got a gig at Night Gallery, NYC(afterhours) on 23rd St. and 8th Ave. Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays with long time friend DJ Louie "Lou" Gorbea and was there until it closed down in the mid 80's. Had a new born son and was away for a while doing the daddy thing raising my son and daughter. Continued dabbling and DJing at local parties around my way in Jersey when time allowed and in 1998 founded Vaultraiderz Productions with my friend DJ Stato. Still doing my part in keeping real deep soulful house music and dance music alive, trying to do what I can do to promote really good music that is not finding it's way to the mainstream radio stations anymore but deserve to be heard. Thru my mix cds, playlist rotations on my weekly internet radio show on www.prepartyradio.com, remixes and re edits, trying to give artists the most exposure within my power promoting their projects thru my mix cds. I see myself as a conduit between artists, fans, other producers, fashion peeps, other dj's, promoters, and industry heads....DJFM Vaultraiderz Productions.
