emplate first heard the sounds of Jungle/Drum & Bass in the summer of '96 and was instantly enchanted. A drummer, and heavily influenced by hip hop, metal, industrial, classical and jazz; emplate believes drum and bass embodies everything he had been listening to and loved before it.

In '99 he knew that listening was not enough. He needed more than mixtapes and parties to get his fix. Inspired by the DJs around him and his love for DnB, he dedicated himself to seeking knowledge, selection and skill. emplate soon became respected both technically and for his sets that interweave neurofunk and darker, minimal DNB tunes that are often peppered with liquid dancefloor tracks if the mood is right.

In 2006, emplate became a resident DJ at the former weekly and nationally recognized DnB event "in:verse". Always interested in moving the scene forward, emplate helped develop The Cleveland Drum n Bass Coalition and (216)BASS, both local platforms that Northeast Ohio DnB heads used as a vehicle to further their careers. In August of 2014, emplate joined up with Rockers Music. Excited about having a DnB label out of Cleveland, emplate spearheaded the local launch of the Rockers 175 label with the “Step Inside” & "Kismet" monthly events held at the Beachland Ballroom, bringing in names such as: Lenzman, Doc Scott, Total Science, Zero T, The Prototypes, Crissy Criss, DJ SS, Aphrodite, Dara, AK1200, Dieselboy & more. After stepping away from the label & the turbulent life of event promotions, he focused on being the best DJ he could be...taking his mixing to new levels & determined to prove that he's underrated, not only in his hometown & state, but the U.S. as a whole. He was soon approached about hosting his own weekly show on dnbradio.com and quickly accepted...The Astrogator can be heard every Wednesday 7-9pm EST.

For over a decade, emplate has been known for his diverse selection of up to date releases, promos & unreleased tracks & plays accordingly to timeslot, crowd & vibe.

What is life but altered states of frequency? Vibrations and reflections and patterns of fragmented forms of energy separating yet combining simultaneously in a yolk contained yet not constrained. 

What is music but a harnessing of vibrations for purpose of conceptual impression within its reverberation and resonation… in order to explain deeper feeling in what mere utterance of words- often mistranslated- cannot convey thoroughly on its own.

What is time and space but a continuim of coinciding occurrence leading each being moment by moment like a 3D view master- all for specific purpose in relevance of their own being…. a silent guide— in which perhaps- if believed in…has led you to this very moment….. where you glimpse into fragments my mind—and soul-- illustrated through the sounds i choose to display before you….

I thank the universe and its divine ordination for your existence - for i would not exist without your knowledge of me nor i of you… There is more than meets the eye between you and I… there is more than meets the eye between us and all that surrounds us within infinite space… and within infinite space there is more than meets the eye within the mind...
