"For those of you who have not heard of Grover...you best get yourself in the know. This kat has been spinning records for a half-life longer than most of you have been partying." With over 18 years DJing under his belt & 16 years+ producing / engineering music, this Seattle/Las Vegas legend is sure to have the mixes flowin' & the dance floor movin'! 
 
Since the early 80's Joe Cancino (DJ Grover) has had music in his life.  It all started when Joe would accompany his grandmother and grandfather to the salsa club they managed in Pico Rivera, California.  It was at this time that Joe was into the break-dance scene and was influenced by the sounds of Kraftwerk, 
Africa Bambatta and the Soul Sonic Force and other early electro artists. A year later at the young age of 10 Joe got to get his hands on the decks. Joe would get a chance to play a few songs at the salsa club for the younger kids that would come with their parents. 
 
Fast-forward to the year 1992 when Joe decided to attend a "Rave" event called Circa 92' in Los Angeles. This was the fire that lit a fuse in Joe's life that would lead him to a love with Techno.  I use the word "Techno" because back then everything was considered Techno.  Joe began buying records from small LA record stores like Prime Cuts, DMC, and Street Sounds and built up quite a nice collection of tunes to listen to. In Fall of 1992 Grover moves to Las Vegas where he would meet his mentor DJ Shoe.  A legend in Las Vegas DJ Shoe took Joe under his wing and taught him to MIX. A few months went by and Joe scored his first "gig" at Lillis in the Field a renegade warehouse party that featured DJs Taylor and Shoe. From here Grover would launch himself into a budding Vegas rave scene.  The next few years would see Grover land more choice bookings and establish good friendships in the music scene. 

1995 A year for growing...In 95' DJ Grover gets his first out of town booking in Seattle, WA at an event called Foundation.  It was this trip to Seattle that would ultimately inspire him to later move there. 1995-2000 Would be the years that Grover would blossom into a nationally known talent.  Playing in cities around the US such as Seattle, Phoenix, Tucson, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Orlando, New York, Madison and Minneapolis, Grover became a staple DJ in the American Trance movement.  It was also during this time that Grover would see a bit of international exposure by DJing for Germany's own Move Production. Also worth mentioning is the fact that from 1998 to 2004 Grover was a weekly host of an internet radio show on Groovetech.com where he would play the newest promos provided to him by Eros Euphony Record Pool.  The year 2000 would close with a bang by getting offered to put out his first Licensed CD.  It would be a mix compilation for the very popular trance label EVE Records titled "An EvEning of Trance”.

Jump to the year 2011. DJ Grover continues to push boundaries with his new DJ setup incorporating Abelton Live to create new remixes and mash-ups on the fly. No matter what you have seen in the past, this will change the way you hear club music forever! "Genres are only barriers put up by the industry". Known for spinning mostly Trance, Techno, Electro, & Breaks, these days you never know what he might lay down. Whatever it may be, you'll be dancing all night long!
