The sounds of Detroit, Chicago, New York, London, Frankfurt, San Francisco, and San Jose all left an impact on me. From Techno to Techstep, the sounds of the future, the warehouse, the jungle all helped shape my career as a DJ. From behind the decks and behind the counter at Solid Grooves I was able to spread the underground sound of labels like Metalheadz, Virus, Droppin' Science, and Valve throughout the SF Bay Area. The sounds of Urban Assault/Killasubz and the Clandestine Crew all helped to spark Silicon Valley's interest in what is now known as BASS music. After many years on the sidelines watching the scene grow and listening to the evolution of the music, it's time to return to the DJ booth and share my sound with the dancefloor once again.
