Bouncing around in the Club . . .

I love DJing all kinds of music.  Here's a little remix I did of the new NERD and Rihanna song "Lemon".  Listen to the full version on SoundCloud below the video!  (Video footage taken this past weekend DJing at Maxwell's SLC)

Mind Warp 2017

Had a great time DJing for Jason Olsen's epic Halloween Party, which benefitted the Utah Pride Center's teen suicide prevention programs.  

Since my first encounter with electronic music back in 1997, I have loved the beat and vibes of house music.  I'm forever grateful that I found that Dallas rave and the good friends Sol and Ty who accepted me for who I am despite my strange appearance.  

I love DJing hip-hop and top 40, but there's something about a dark room full of strobes and lasers with a 4-on-the-floor beat going.  The energy and good feelings spreading through the room and connecting people.  That's what I love about electronic music, the human connection facilitated by electronic means.  That's my purpose.  

Art modeling days . . .

I found some old drawings from when I was an art model for a local university.  I was just getting on my feet and it paid pretty well, better than fast food.  It was a challenge though, you had to sit or stand for long stretches of time in the same spot, so your body got really sore and as the clock ticked seconds away pain increased until finally the art instructor would call out "break time". 

The teachers usually had me nude or wearing a speedo or underwear, but once the professor went in a back room and came out with leather chaps, spurs, a vest and a cowboy hat, and dropping this at my feet said, "Giddy-up" to the students' laughter.  I wasn't amused as I was already somewhat embarrassed to disrobe in front of so many people, not just disrobe, but stand there for hours as they stared and scrutinized every imperfection.  But it did give me good motivation to go to the gym and push myself physically, knowing I'd be back in front of another class to be examined and drawn.

Special DJ+Drums edition Fall mixtape

Bart Olson is the best drummer around, featured on my recent single "Straight A" and here see him work his magic along with my latest DJ mixtape.  Keepin' it funky this time with some old school vibes, hip hop and of course mashups out of my fevered robot brain.
