Apparently I have a tendency to hide things from myself... and have discovered a small arsenal of mixes that I recorded but never shared… I am calling them “The Lost Files.” 

Track 1- This is probably the most accurate representation of my minimal/techno/house mixing style to date…  Even though it was originally recorded 8 months ago. Ha! 

The first half is melodic, with a lot of beats, noises, echoes… maybe the better word is hypnotic…. And the second half is just plain nasty. I know… I could have thought of a better explanation… but that’s about the only word that comes to mind when I hear tracks like that- I can’t say anything really…. I can only dance. :)

Enjoy ;)

The White Rabbit - The Lost Files-Track 1

2021 update: I don't pay for pro anymore, but I'll be rotating through my mixes every so often 

**My overall style infuses a blend of breakbeats with techno, minimal and house, using a BPM of between 125-140 as a rough guide. My style of breaks range from electro to dnb-influenced, florida to nu skool. My multigenre sets include anything from dubstep to trap to electro house and occasionally dropping some drum & Bass. And then there is techno, deep house, and tech house... let's just say there's nothing that truly gets me going than a perfectly constructed dark techno set or a trippy mental deep house set, and don’t forget the minimal house… sometimes, the weirder the better ☺ 

Regardless the genre, one thing is certain-- the bass will be heavy and the sound will draw you in. With a love for dark melodies, dirty basslines, and a variety of beats… each set with one goal in mind: to make people dance.

I started piano lessons at age 9... had many pop influences but was classically trained and continued with guild, competing in my latter years of grade school. Obviously, music has always played a huge role in my life... mostly just to get through it- life is HARD. Every major event of my life has a soundtrack... a song on repeat... and score, an album... I can't imagine what life would be like without it.

Although DJ’ing began as a hobby to pass the time in pharmacy school, it quickly became something I wanted to do more and more, perfect every chance I had... lunch breaks, study breaks... it was the perfect release.

In November of 2009 I began my journey with two belt-driven turntables loaned to me by DJ Pinky along with a few crates of friends’  breakbeat records (circa ‘99-’03).   During spring of 2010, I was asked to play my first gig but first I had to come up with a DJ name. I started DJing just after Halloween in 2009, and my Halloween costume was a rendition of The White Rabbit…. Sure, why not. 

Since that gig, I’ve played parties at clubs and underground venues in and around the Atlanta area, including some bookings in AL. 2013 was a busy year for me, with roughly 30-40 gigs, all the while toggling the most vigorous courses thus far in pharmacy school. Let’s just say I didn’t sleep that much that year ;) such a challenge but loved every second of it. A highlight for me as a DJ was opening for DJ Icey at Mix Ultra Lounge in Auburn, AL that year.
