This page will basically explaining the story of my life and how i got into
Djing and producing my own music.
 
 
 

I am 23 years old and i was born and raised in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.
I attended english school all of my young life.
My roots are of Italian dissent.
I was brought up to respect others as i respect myself and i am very proud of that.
From the day i made my first friend until now, i always had multi cultured friends
whitch i believe made me very lucky, because i learned other peoples culture and way of life "and also taste there great many different foods".
It also made me relize that wether you are black,white,red,yellow or pokka dot
we are all the same people inside and out.
I was about 10 yrs old when a couple of my friends introduced me to hip hop,
groups like grand master flash,the fat boys, run dmc,ll cool j, scholly d and many others of the time.
Even though i was only 10 the music sound very appealing tome.
It's lively style and poetic harmony caught my attention,
but what really got my mind spinning was how the dj made those wicked sounds with those records and turntables i thought that they were pretending to make those sounds via computer.
Little did i know "it was really them".
I continued to listen to hip hop until the age of 16. By chance my dad was working in a restaurant called Le new Orleans which was a place where you can eat cajun food and enjoy a live jazz band show and later on dance to modern music. My dad had spooken to the dj about me telling him that i was always in my room messing around with music tapes. dad had also asked if he would show me the ropes and know how of Djing.The dj which to this is my blood brother agreed. So the following weekend he invited me to the restaurant and greeted me with open arms. when i walked into the both i thought i was in heaven, Because of all the equipment that was there. i began to talk to the dj
"oh ya his name is Poncho" and we quickly became friends. That night i had heard music that i again haven't heard before.
I had asked Poncho what it was called and he told me "it's called house music"
-just to let you know it was my favorite house track ever by Frankie Knuckles-
and the song was called "The whistle".
When i heard it i got goose bumps all over my body and a sick feeling in my stomach
"no it wasn't the booze".
some how i knew that i had fallin in love with it.
this might sound weird but it's very true, the whistle was like an awakening to me.

With time poncho showed me how the equipment worked first.
then he started teaching the bpm count, which is beats per minute,
and how to mix "well the basics of mixing".
5 months had past and poncho had got an offer from another club and told me like his brother once told him "Joe do you feel ready to do this on your own",
with eyes that said "no" my heart and mouth said "yes".
at the time i barely knew how to mix. but i found out that it was the best and smartest idea to learn on hand what i needed to know.
So that's how i basically got into djing and 7 yrs after i am still playing in clubs and events.

but about 2 and half years ago i started to think that maybe i needed to take the next step and start makin my own house music. i saved up my cash and bought myself some equipment.
although i don't have a track out on the market im still makin music at home and testing it on crowds.
and needless to say some tracks work others don't.
i'm working on 2 tracks right now that have lots of potential, and i hope to release them soon, by the summer the latest.
