Every since DJ and Producer 360 Degrees discovered the tables in 1996, his passion for jungle and hip hop has been a shining force, providing a solid foundation for his current endeavors with the Rules of Culture crew and Sandia Recordings. His finesse at mixing hip hop, jump up and grimy dnb while incorporating turntablism has set him apart and given uniqueness to his name.Six months after his start, 360 began spinning countless parties alongside Stateside giants such as Pish Posh, Tester, Phantom 45, and more."I just started spending all my time and money on my music. It was like I had an addiction," he says.Known for being a pioneer in the Junglist Movement throughout his native Mississippi and the entire Southeast, 360 has built an impressive resume with a long list of accomplishments and associates. In 2001, he was a runner up in Rawkuts National Mixtape Contest and in 2005 won first prize in a Regional Dj Competition. His membership in Knights of the Roundtable, Outthabox Soundystem, Straight Out Da Lab Productions, and now Rules of Culture set him up with longtime comrades Jahli(Rev. Scooter Jackson), Fi3ld, Verbal, and Dj Kaotic of Company of Strangaz(Denver, CO) for many projects, including weeklies, headliner parties and music production, where 360 is now focusing much of his attention."I am all about learning. I was once told if you go in thinking you know everything, you will learn nothing. So I try to remain humble," he says.360's influences are apparent: "I think I would have to give credit to hip hop for changing my life," he says. But, inspired by everything from blues to jazz and r&b and soul, 360's wide range of influences and collaborations mean big things for his new releases dropping in the coming year.
