I've been into music since childhood, started mixing in 1996, and the art form has been a passionate constant in my life ever since. I love to listen to MANY genres, but my major love is for most things Deep, Soulful, and bumpin' HOUSE. My personal biggest foundational influences have been DJs/Artists/producers/shows/venues like Red Alert/Old School @ Noon, Timmy Regisford/ClubShelter, C-Reality, Joe Claussell, Danny Tenaglia, Masters At Work (Louie and Kenny), Visual Artist/DJ Kortez, Pat Metheney Group, Lars Behrenroth, Quincy Jones, Ernest Fountain, Ruben Toro/Kiss Club Classics radio show, Ron Trent, Larry Heard/Mr. Fingers, Mattski Zoid, Blaze, Danny Krivit, Spinna, Kerri Chandler, Mood II Swing, Deep Dish, ect ect ect, the list could go on for days, but these are my major constants............
