Many, Many more artist and genres effect my music like in punk, rock, and country.
I’m a worldly dude and a sucker for a melody.
My mom influenced a lot of my Latin music from Salsa, Merengue and Cumbia. My Cousin introduced me to California love when I was 8 years old.
My childhood best friend introduce me to Reggaeton in 2001. Played some Bass in High school.
I Interned for Azdef Production Group LLC in KC doing nightlife events, fashion shows, and community gathering events as well. Was introduced to JT Quick and Dj Irie in KC around 2013.
Did events in PDX ZJ Kenzo in 2018 until the Pandemic, then I picked up Dj’ing with my Denon MC4000 during the shutdown. I just don’t hear the music I wanted to hear when we out to events so I decided to play my own mix instead.
Enjoy what’s to come and come along for the ride!
