- Resident DJ for MEDUSA (Manila, Philippines)

- Founder & DJ at MABU-PSY (Manila, Philippines)
- Psytrance & breaks alias: 'Jarret The Slap God'

I specialize primarily in psytrance, and additionally in breakbeat and tech-house / deep-tech... yet I also drop sets of drum'n'bass, techno, and various styles of house music.

Psytrance is my true love.
However, tech-house is a very close second, which I *sometimes* perform under the ‘Papasan’ alias.

A disc jockey for the past 23 years, I have a wide ranging background... from Bay Area mack rap and G-funk, to progressive and nuskool breakbeat, to techstep, jump-up, and neurofunk styles of drum'n'bass.
My roots are spinning vinyl records of nuskool breaks and drum'n'bass, yet for the past 16 years, I've stayed firmly planted in psychedelic trance music.

I've had the honor of dropping slaps for some of the USA's most renowned psytrance crews, namely Pulsar LA, PsyTribe USA, and Greensector, as well as dropping breakbeat and D&B for various rave crews in Los Angeles, and in addition, ardently pushing psytrance in the Philippines wherever and whenever I can, from MEDUSA (Makati) events, my own OPODISCO parties, Vulan Tribe's outdoor festivals, and arguably the most fun: private in-house (IH) ragers.

Expect to hear a wide range of trance... ranging from higher BPM, heavy, funky twilight blasters, to deep and rolling full-on, to earthy and chunky Japanese mid-groove, to driving, atmospheric prog-psy.

Past aliases include: Psykotik, Bling Theory, and Sardonyx (w/ DJ Symbiot... RIP Jason!)

"Flowers may be highly valued, but mushrooms are the ones who transform waste into edible products that plants and animals can assimilate and re-introduce into the food chain. In doing so, they purify the earth. Mushrooms are the only hope we are not going to be swallowed by our own waste in the near future."
