I was born and raised in Los Angeles, California. Well, I was born in LA but grew up in LA County. I spent most of my life in the San Fernando Valley, but moved when I started college.
While attending UC Irvine I moved to Orange County (right below LA so it wasn't a big move). I received a BS in Computer Science and I am currently working on my Master of Science in Computer Science at CSULB.

I started listening to Hardcore around 1999 / 2000. I started with mix tapes from local DJs such as Paulina Taylor, Mindcontroller, and Smileshot. I begun DJing around 2002/03 with two old beat up turntables and an equally old and beat up mixer. I was (and still am) extremely grateful for my first set up which my dad bought for me, heck I still have my original turntables and mixer!
After spinning vinyl for a few years I began to look towards mixing CDs. I had so many songs on my computer that I wanted to spin, but could not with turntables. After saving up I bought a CDJ and another world of mixing was open to me. Another year passed and I was able to get another CDJ (both of which I still own and use to this day.

I kept at it and eventually started posting my mixes online. I've improved over the years, I've gotten new equipment, I've made friends, I've learned a lot about Hardcore, and I plan to keep at it for years to come.

I am currently using the VCI-300 by Vestax with Serato's ITCH Software to mix. After mixing CDs for years I literally have burned hundreds of CDs and it was getting to be a really pain keeping track of and storing all those CDs. I still use my turntable and a 2 channel mixer for scratching.
Thank you dad for buying me my first equipment. Thank you mom for buying me my first vinyl. And both of them for buying me many more records over the years.
Thank you Koko for going to most of my events and taking pictures because I know I never will :P
Thank you to everyone who has supported me over the years. Supporting me by downloading my mixes, by giving me feedback, by encouraging me, by going to see me spin, by giving me tracks to spin, and all that other good stuff.
Thank you to everyone who listens to the core and makes the core. I freaking love this music.

Hardcore will never die!
