About Me

I am an 18 year old musician and photographer living in the city of peterborough. I have DJed under the monikers of Dijits and That Kid Joe. Preferring to take a more experimental approach mixing records, working sometimes with 5 turntables and two mixers along side long time friend and local club dj Willy Joel. I also write music that dwells everywhere from folk music to electronic music. Apart from music, I love photography and post most of my work here http://jfortin.deviantart.com/. Occasionally I engage in my studies at Trent University. MyGen Profile Generator
