"Beginning lifes journey in New Orleans Louisiana, surrounded by the funkiest of jazz, the deepest of blues and the hardest of rock, I developed a love for music with emotion at a very early age. My earliest memory is unwrapping a saxophone I received at the age of four. By the age of six I could literally blow everyone away. From there I went onto guitar and remain devoted to the instrument today. Somehow or another I found myself in my early teens wanting to express myself through sound. Hoping to find others wanting the same I tried to form a band, but to no avail I was left to my own devices.
At the impressionable age of fourteen I was taken to an afterhours club by some older friends and heard techno for the first time. I was hooked in seconds. I was captivated by the art of djing and how sound and songs could be combined together to create something new and move an audience. Coincidently Trent Reznor, NIN, released Pretty Hate Machine and after learning his story and how he came to be I knew I could do this myself.
I fell in love with the industrial sound and how many different directions it could be taken in. Which led to the developement of my dark sound as a dj."
"Imagination for the conception of the dream, Ambition and Inspiration to go after it, Dedication Discipline and Perseverance to get you there, along with the Will to Succeed to watch it become your reality!" MM
