My love for music started at a very ripe young age for me when I started listening to records on my father's stereo at age 3.

Since that time, I have been blessed with years of experience listening to electronic music in 1993 when I stumbled upon the scene at the nightclub, TRAXX, in Washington, DC.

In 1994, after moving to New Jersey, I found myself sucked up by the industry after going to the Limelight in NYC to attend the ENERGY & Disco 2000 parties.  It's been history ever since.

I worked for Local 13 and Club Space, as well as starting my own promotion company, ROPE in the late 1990's where my crew promoted events from DC to CT.

In 2000, I moved back to the DC area and worked with M3 Music.  I also was hired as a light technician at The Edge nightclub.

After taking a few years off, I came back into the industry after being referred to Steez Promo, by an old friend, James Messinian, and I worked on their street team and assisted with productions.

Furthermore, I worked with 3D Productions and my love for the music expanded even further.

It's been quite a journey and continues every day...



DSCI4 is a pioneering Techstep label, known for its dark, futuristic soundscapes.

Dark Jungle & D&B disciple—strictly underground, strictly sinister. Evil breaks, darkside bass, and raw emotion in every mix.
Sonically forged in the shadows of Renegade Hardware, Metalheadz, Virus, DSCI4, Bad Company, Cause4Concern, Tech Itch and beyond. My sound is a tribute to the darker architecture of drum & bass—where tension, precision, and atmosphere collide.

Recently expanding into dark techno blends—industrial pulse, hypnotic repetition, and shadow-drenched textures. The same ethos applies: no compromise, no polish, just raw sonic architecture built for the underground.
