We Own The Nightmares and Our Destiny

I have been making music since my days before High School.  Yet, only until recently have I really begun to see the fruits of my labor.  This past January I hosted Rave @ Dave's Volume 3 for over 100 people.  It is worth noting that there was no alcohol or illegal drugs and most of the people that came "don't normally do this rave thing".  What is more PLU then that?  We can argue about PLU, PLUR, and PLURR later...  Also, my 101 Dubstep Mix has hit over 3,000 listens/views and I am working on my 2013 101 Mix on a daily basis.

What set my motivations into hyper drive is when DJ Philo from Harare, Zimbabwe clicked the "Favorite" button on a Mashup I made using pieces of one of his remixes.  You can listen to my Mashup below:

What is so awesome about that you ask?  Let's take a look at the map:

Two people separated by 8,000 Miles collaborated to make something new.  Defying space and time we did this.  Not once did I contact DJ Philo saying "Hey!  Let's do this".  No.  I stumbled into his remix of We Own The Night on Youtube and just did it.



Well, Pendulum had something to do with it too but they didn't favorite my Mashup on SoundCloud yet.

Thank you very much for listening to my music and maybe one day we will collaborate through space and time like I did with DJ Philo.

Enjoy,
