Strictly Kev aka DJ Food aka Openmind - Music producer, DJ and Graphic Designer. I've worked with and for Ninja Tune since 1993, designing covers, mixing radio shows and producing records as well as touring the world DJing. 

A true original rave legend, but "legend" means "a story told" ....and this story is FAR from done

Luke Mcmillan - The Dj Producer - Original UK Hardcore Techno Dj from the school of 1992.
& producing since 1994 & proud instigator & part creator of the genre "UK Hardcore".

A Dj 1st & foremost. Luke's skills have been continually honed with pinpoint accuracy since his scratch Dj days of the late 80's, & its that phrenetic style that he continually persist's to achieve. Never lazy, creative at its fundamental core, and an almost supernatural ability to mould and layer sound, at points you may even forget Luke is playing individual tracks, needless to say, if you have never witnessed one of "The Dj Producers" Dj sets -- you haven't seen DJing - Period. 

For sure, his speed, dexterity and showmanship may have got him noticed, but he is also a deep digger, with vast knowledge that has been acquired over years, sometimes playing sets that alienated audiences who "just weren't ready" .... a true renegade who fought for advancement of the music and to break all rules and regulations, these rules still apply , you may not know 80% of what Luke is playing ......but thats the mark and art of a proper dj

And as Luke is a Dj at his core, that energy he emits when he Dj's can be heard in abundance in his productions. To witness him Dj actually helps you understand where his music comes from, and you'll understand quickly that his music comes more from reaction, not to play any genre game or chase any current trend, but to keep it as High tech, High emotional and as vital as can be witnessed in his sets. Luke's take on Hardcore is truly Luke Personified. 
There is only 1 The Dj Producer.........

As an 11 year old , Mista Sinista’s first influence was the sound of his father (a DJ) spinning old breaks in his house. Naturally interested in the art form, the Hip-Hop sounds of Mr. Magic and Kool DJ Red Alert (on New York’s WBLS and KISS FM), soon captivated the Queens, NY youngster. In February of 1986, Mista Sinista finally saved up enough to get a set of his own Technics turntables, and spent the next few years practicing religiously. Mastering the aspects of scratching and mixing was an obsession, as the young deejay honed his skills. In the summer of 1991, Sinista met Dr. Butcher, a legendary Hip-Hop deejay, who was also from Queens.

Asking Mista Sinista about the importance of this relationship, he replied, “Dr. Butcher had skills that were far in advance of anybody I knew at the time”. His new-found mentor took Sinista under his wing and taught him the art of turntablism. With Dr. Butcher’s teaching, Mista Sinista’s skills started to greatly evolve.

In July 1992, when Rob Swift (another student of Dr. Butcher) entered the Northeast DMC Finals, Sinista was on stage aiding him. Rob placed first and Sinista was able to witness first hand what a battle routine was all about. Inspired, Mista Sinista who was by now a member of The X-men, started competing the following year. Coming in as runner up in the 1993 New Music Seminar Battle, and also in the Northeast DMC Finals, Sinista attracted a lot of industry attention. Sinista’s controversial DMC performance (which included the classic “Method Man” routine) soon led to gigs cutting for and touring the world with Common and The Beatnuts. 

Throughout the next couple of years, he gained a reputation for being one of the best tour and scratch deejays in the world (check Common’s “Resurrection” LP for some of the best cuts ever recorded on a Hip-Hop album). His work was also highlighted on
Fat Joe’s sophomore release, “Jealous One’s Envy.”

In 1996, Mista Sinista returned to the DMC and took the DMC East Coast title. He also continued his studio work, recording with Al' Tariq of the Beatnuts and his good friend Kukoo. The following year, Sinista rejoined forces with Common for a few tracks on his new album, “One Day It'll All Make Sense". With touring and studio projects in abundance already, Mista Sinista began to partake in the recording of the X-ecutioner’s debut album “X-Pressions” on Asphodel Records. Around the time of this release, some of the X-Men working on X-Pressions, including Sinista, renamed themselves the X-ecutioners. (Historical note: Not all of the X-ecutioners were originally X-Men and many of the X-Men did not become X-ecutioners).

With the critical success of this album, as well as the growing buzz of the crew, the X-ecutioners secured a recording deal on Loud/Sony. “Built For Scratch” was finally released in February 2002, and was viewed as a groundbreaking album for turntablism. Soon after, Mista Sinista left the group to pursue several ventures, including his own solo debut album.

The Mista Sinista’s debut album, “Heartfelt” is scheduled to be released in 2006. This LP will showcase Mista Sinista’s creativity and ability to experiment, successfully, with several genres of music. According to Mista Sinista, “There will be something on it for everyone, and the project itself will be heartfelt”. The album will feature joint efforts with some of Hip-Hop’s best emcees and DJs, as well as several cross-genre music collaborations. Look for this seminal release to further raise the bar and to push turntablism toward new heights of creativity.

Sinista will be touring the U.S. and abroad throughout the summer and fall of 2005, including judging and showcasing at several U.S. DMC battles. He will soon be starring in the Cable TV series “ESPIA” in which he was cast in a lead role as a club DJ. Most recently, Mista Sinista just returned from touring with Lauren Hill in Europe, he has also collaborated on various projects with artist such as Jean Grae and Porchelina. Look forward to continued success and more amazing tracks from this talented DJ/Producer….

The language provides a method for documenting the progress of the art and preserving its accomplishments.
Since 2004, DJ SKAR works with J.CARLUCCIO on the development of the method.
He made extensions on the TTM format for laser, phaser and hydroplane scratches.
