Welcome.

I've decided to make a few changes as to what I post.

Soundcloud is not as friendly toward DJs as it used to be when I first joined.
I am tired of having random mixes being pulled down due to possible copyright infringement.  The process they use to determine violations is inconsistent and unpredictable.  

Unfortunately, Soundcloud has a bigger footprint than other similar sites so my efforts get greater exposure.  
For this reason, I will only post a few Workout mixes at a time since they get the most plays, comments and follows.  
All others will be posted on Fit Radio and Mixcloud.

Thank you and follow me on these other sites.
