DeejayNeko became a turntable dj in 1996 while living abroad in Birmingham, England. He moved to Minneapolis in 2000 and established himself quickly in the local scene as an energetic "rock show" inspired live performer. Neko's performances with the DJ crews True Funk Army, Steppers Alliance, and Progress were written about in Time Magazine, Urb, City Pages, and the Associated Press. As a solo artist, he performed with such internationally respected names as Seb Fontaine, AK1200, Christopher Lawrence, DJ Dara, Tommie Sunshine, John Acquaviva, Dieselboy, Freddy Fresh, Brad Owen, Thee-O, Kenny Gino, Woody McBride, Diva D, Speedy, Donald Glaude, and Junkie XL. DeejayNeko took a hiatus from the DJ world in 2007, returning in 2023 to perform funky bassline, UKG, 140, and hard breaks for dance music fans across the Twin Cities.
