412 Mixtape Release



DJ Kurve approached me along with DJ's Petey C and McFly about producing the "412" mixtape in early 2011. The premise would be 4 DJ's, 1 Mix, 2 turntables. We knocked it out and held the cd release at Jimmy D's on a Thursday night in February. You can peep the mix here. Shouts to everyone who came out and big up to Zimmie for coming through and snapping pics. Don't mind my super fancy attire. I came straight from a fundraiser.





















"Therapy" Thursdays at the Cellar WVU (3-10-11)

DJ Rambo and promoter Dean Kenny brought me down to play their weekly Electro House night at the Cellar at West Virginia University a few weeks ago and it was nuts. It was awesome to play nothing but uptempo bangers all night and watch college kids go insane. Shouts to Rambo, Dean, Ples and all the other cool cats I met that night. Thanks again for a great night fellas and I'm looking forward to making my way down there next semester as well.















McNugget CD Release Party


McFly and I began working on our "McNugget" mixtape in December of 2009 and didn't wrap the project up until fall of 2010. Our goal was to make the "hardest" mix of music we could possibly come up with and feature tons of remix work through various genres. We threw the release party at the Firehouse Lounge and had a great crowd show up to cop the mix and hear us perform together on four turntables. Here's a few pics of us working on the mix and the party. You can download the full mix here







DJ Kurve's Going Away Party

DJ Kurve was called back to duty recently and was sent over to Afghanistan. We threw him a little going away party at S BAR the Sunday before and got it in. We wish him the best and a safe return to Pittsburgh soon.

Wiz and Bonics in Cleveland

Vinny and I took a trip out to Cleveland a few months ago to check out the Wiz Khalifa show at the House of Blues and to support my brother DJ Bonics. Joell Ortiz had a great opening set and Wiz shut the place down. Also met up with DJ Donkis and DJ Pana and went out on the town afterwards for a few drinks.







Benefit for Bonics (12-10)


This past winter my good friend DJ Bonics came home from tour with famed Pittsburgh emcee Wiz Khalifa and suffered a heart attack at the age of 30. With no healthcare, he was facing some serious medical bills. Myself along with DJ Zimmie and DJ Strobe orchestrated a benefit on his behalf to help cover costs and the city of Pittsburgh came out to show their love. Thank you to everyone who came out, offered a raffle prize and donated. Unfortunately I was running around like a maniac that night so I didn't get too many pics. If any more pop up, I'll be sure to post them.
