DJ ORACLE-KNOXVILLE, TN
NAME: Daniel J. Britt
AGE: 28
AFFILATION: Techno Mafia Inc. This
is my personal alias/label identification for all my mixtape releases.
STYLES: Hard-hitting tracky techno,
Detroit techno, Chicago hard house, new school electro, acid house, smooth jazzy
techno-house.
MISSION: To bring mayhem to every
dancefloor on the planet using my unstoppable barrage of plastic explosive tracks.
PLAYING STYLE: Using the finest
weapons our techno warriors have to offer, I smoothly blend the wax into endless mixes of
bliss with a maximum dose of eq and volume manipulation, transforming and special effects
processing (if available). Sometimes if the mood strikes me, I get into cut and paste mode
slamming the fader back and forth with the occasional double track or sample. I get very
involved with each record on a mix. When I play, you know there is a dj playing and not a
jukebox!
EXPERIENCE: I have 6 years
experience pumping the unstoppable techno grooves at rave parties, one-offs and club
nights for crowds ranging from 2 to 2000 people in the Southeast United States (Tennessee,
North Carolina, Georgia, Alabama). I also hosted and programmed a specialty 4 hour radio
show called "Music to be Murdered By" (techno/industrial/gothic/noise) from
April 1990 to July 1991 at 91.3 WDJM-Framingham / Boston, Mass.

X-Mas-Chattanooga 12/96; Ultrabrite-Knoxville 11/96; House Nation-Atlanta 1995; Space

Undefined Blue tentatively scheduled for early summer 1998
PLANS FOR 1998: To travel and spread
the techno sound as much as possible, to relocate and find a scene more supportive of the
techno scene than Knoxville, TN and get as many tapes as possible out and visible across
the country.
RATES: Unfortunately, charging money
to play is a necessary evil, but I try to charge very reasonable rates. I am usually
willing to drive up to 6 hrs. each direction from Knoxville to play at an event, I will
also need a hotel room for a reasonable time before and after an event, and if needed a
round-trip plane ticket to get to the event. I am willing to work with anyone regarding
specific details about a booking. I am also available in a limited capacity for charity
events, but full transportation expenses must be covered. Send me your proposal, and the
full details of the charity. Please do not hesitate to call or write regarding situations
not noted above. For more information regarding booking DJ Oracle please check out my bookings page.
