🔺FREQUENCY UNDERGROUND INTERVIEW WITH CRUDAWG🔻

◾Real Name: Samuel Crupi, Jr.

◾Current city: Kissimmee, FL

◾DJ Collective: Houz of Breaks

◾How did you come up with your dj name: CruDawg was my nickname in high school when and I just ended up using it. Started as DJ CruDawg but dropped the DJ part so now, it is just... CruDawg.

◾When did you start djing: In the mid-90’s, a friend left his T-1200’s and a Pioneer mixer in my dorm room. Spent a lot of time “DJing” (term very loosely used). Then, over the years made a little family for myself but missed being part of the action. Then in December of 2018, I had a vivid dream in which I was contacted by a supernatural being that simply said, “You are a DJ.” I know that sounds crazy but from that moment I have been one with the music, acting as a conductor for travel in the groove.

◾Favorite dj moment: Standing on Stage with Rob-E, Vicious Vic, and T-Mouse at a local event and looking out at the impact the groove has on each individual.

◾Favorite genre/subgenre to spin: Breaks will always be my number one when it comes to get down, party mode!!!

◾Favorite artists: Without just naming the historic FL Breaks icons like DJ Magic Mike, DJ Icey, and Huda Hudia, I would add Kwartz, Electrom, Prato, Jim Funk, and Wicked Wes

◾Favorite labels: Diesel Recordings, Bass-a-Holix Anonymous, Underground Collective Records, Ravesta Records, Gigabeat Records, One7Audio

Old Skool Breakbeat freak. Anything funky, head boppin', ass shakin'. I just love the music, it's been a fun hobby for many years!
Texas transplant from the west coast of Florida, for 11 years.  Now in the mountains of New York State.  Full disclosure: I’m a product of the Florida rave scene. My influences were and still are-, DJ Icey, Kimball Collins, Baby Anne, Monk, Three, T-Confucious (of Rabbit in the Moon), D-Extreme, Chris Fortier, Cosmic Baby, Dave Seaman, R-Fresh, Hardware, Huda Hudia, Sandy, Trip Theory, Rainbow Bridge, Spacemen, Rick West (RIP), Sharaz, Paul Santana, Huda Hudia, Wes Smith...and on and on. B-Nice played at my birthday party the year before I left Florida. I love Florida! And as someone said a few years back...

“The thing about Florida is the weather, the venues, and people,” says Bunny. “Back when it started, there was no right, no wrong, no direction or clear path. Radical self-expression, love for the music. That’s the way it was back then. And I think that’s the way it is now, too.”
