The
track/DJ/party that made me want to be a DJ was:
When I lived In southern CA, I use to
listen to this station called KOLA 99.9 fm they use to play house. I
was amazed by the music. The Ultimate Track That made me want to become
a DJ was 2 Puerto Ricans, A Black Man, And A Dominican "Do
It Properly"
Influences:
My parents Record collection, Influences to me
come from where you have been and where your at! Now that I am in the
production game I also want those influences to shine thru the music
I have and will produce.
I
got my first break:
Local Gay Bar In Monterey Called "The After
Dark". My first resident in San Francisco was "Tilt"
at DV8.
Some
DJs I like playing with are:
Too many to name but here's a few Tony Humphries,
Lil Louie Vega, Tedd Patterson, Frankie Feliciano, Frankie Knuckles,
Danny Teneglia, Pete Avila (Your Mama's House), Ruben Mancias, My Taboo
Posse (Sir Charles, Patrick Wilson, Kevin Koga, jojoflores, Lamont Young)
Favorite
thing about the SF scene:
Filled
With Lots Of Soul . The scene is always changing.
Least
favorite thing about the SF scene:
People having the wrong idea about the true San
Francisco scene.
My
favorite SF party is/was:
Taboo, Nulife, The End Up (Friday's & Sunday)
DZIRE @ Paradise Lounge (Thursday). Remedy@ DNA Lounge(Friday's). But
Nothing Compare to The Days Of "Lift" @ DV8 1994 to 1997.
My
favorite Club to play in is:
There
are some great spots I have played in but nothing has turned out Club
Townsend's Sound System here in SF. Paradise Lounge Sound is not too
bad!
If
I could put together MY dream music festival, the Entertainment would
be:
Tony
Humphries, Lil Louie Vega, Tedd Patterson, Frankie Feliciano, Frankie
Knuckles, Danny Teneglia, Pete Avila (Your Mama's House), Ruben Mancias,
My Taboo Posse (Sir Charles, Patrick Wilson, Kevin Koga, jojoflores,
Lamont Young) plus PA's from Julie Mcknight, Jocelyn Brown, Mr Ali,
Nuyorican Soul, Moulton Studio players, Lisa Shaw, and Jill Scott, Shaun
Escofferey to name a few........... Would still be off the hook!
If I couldn't play records I would probably be a professional:
Radio Communications or An Architectural
Drafter. I would love to own an Amusement Park!
I want to thank these people for helping me get this
far:
My Family, Frankie Feliciano, David
& Jose, Chris Lum (the Baddest Engineer), Pete Avila, Audrey Joseph,
Lil Dave, Reed, Joey Arbagey.
What
you want people to know and we didn't ask:
Appreciate
what you have here in the SF club scene. The Music World Is watching
what we do and most of clubland don't even know it! Respect the culture
of dance. Music is always from the heart not the hype.
My motto is:
"Live Life Lovely "
