Profession:  DJ, Producer, Remixer, Owner of Excalibur Music & Hollywood Entertainment

My Style is: House, all styles. Vocal, Electro, Deep, Progressive, Mash up. It's all about the HOUSE music

Claim to Fame: Making sick promo CDs. I've heard stories of them being stolen out of people’s cars. They leave the car and just take the CD. I love that.

Latest Accomplishment: Developing a reality TV show about, what else, DJ's. Working in the studio with DJ X Mind from the Crooklyn Clan on some great remixes. Check them out on my Myspace. Putting the finishing touches on the new studio. Clothing line coming soon, Club Scene Apparel...CSA

Greatest Accomplishment: Being able to make a living with what I love to do

Why I Do What I Do: The rush I get from watching the crowd dance and hearing them scream when I drop a bomb.

One Tune That Always Makes It into My Set: Love is Gone - BADBOYJOE vs. David Guetta Mix

One Tune That Never Fails to Get the Party Started & Why: Follow Me - Aly-Us. There is something about that song that's almost hypnotic. You here it and you say to yourself I ....MUST....DANCE.

My Big Musical Project for 2009 is: My first CD is coming to iTunes this summer. Make sure you look for it. Also a few original tracks and some great remixes.

Best Gig Moment: I opened for Tommy Lee & DJ Aero in Vegas @ The Hard Rock. The party in the booth was NUTS. Dee Snider stopped by. Tommy had the video cam out. Aero was dropping sick electro beats and no bottle of Jagermeister was safe.

Worst Gig Moment: The hangover the next day from the Best Gig Moment :-)
