Having grown up with 3 music teacher grandparents, I was always around music. Seeing all the music ads in Thrasher magazine  when I was around the age of 9 like Bad Religion and Suicidal Tendencies enticed me to find music that wasn't being played on pop radio. Fortunately there was a show on 94 Rock called Fast Forward hosted by Phil Mahoney. The first night I listened he introduced me to The Sex Pistols, Janes Addiction, The Dead Kennedys, Sigue Sigue Sputnik and early Red Hot Chili Peppers to name a few. This naturally sent me down a rabbit hole of underground music to which I never returned to pop radio again. Future radio shows like KUNMs Raw Guts/Underground Connection and Overnight Freeform and KANWs Radio Aftermath helped me find new stuff in the pre-internet era thanks to all those DJs. I heard about an underground club called Maxwell's because of one of those shows which I tried my damndest to get to at the tender age of 14. Shaun Parker played an eclectic mix of goth, industrial and new wave that hit me hard in the best way. When it shut down and he started to play at Ritual, I of course was there as much as I could. Ritual shut down and then U.N. Thursdays became the weekly haunt. By then Alternative music had become mainstream. But there was a new underground music style coming up called techno. It was the Industrial I loved with less vocals and a little less anger. It took me a while to come around to that 4x4 house music beat, but when I found the right groove, it was on! Eventually my friends asked why a guy who loves music so much, has tons of records, and has turntables wasn't a DJ. They started inviting me to house parties and made me bring records to start djing live. I learned in front of a crowd of non-judgemental friends and I haven't really looked back. I resisted the digital revolution for a while but eventually records weren't being made anymore and no clubs had turntables so I made the digital jump. And although I focus on being a house music DJ, and I still play records too, my heart still bleeds punk rock, goth and industrial.
