A Wilmington N. C. native Patrick
b. growing up in home filled Jazz (Miles Davis, John Coltrane..),
Soul music (Al Green, Sade..), which made he understand enjoy
the power and how music can fill the soul with life. And as
time passed, living in such a diverse town as Wilmington, his
thoughts, likes, and what music means developed. But as for
most people he need something to help rebel so Hip-Hop became
his right hand man for awhile. There was something missing
in the music. Like everything else in the world things change
and so did he. This was at the time when Hip-Hop started to
become more even less about the music and lyrics and more
about cars, drugs & money.
Things started to fall into place
to move him toward electronic music: meeting people in the
scene (thanks to Rinse & Repeat: Danny, Brian, Joe
& Lance), going to party's (Detroit Electronic Music
Festival '01) and being natural curious moved him even more.
From there he began to learn to dj and promote events, because
without the two there would be no scene. His first weekly
start in April '01 booking local and regional talent (Chris
Cue, Phatt Rabbit, R & R..) and at the same time learning
to dj (playing the early spots for practice and so other djs
didn't have to). That weekly end to soon, but the knowledge
gained made the following weeklies and events event better.
And still hard at work promoting and dj they remain the most
important things to him. With almost three years under his
belt production is the next's step and with works in progress
and gaining knowledge different type of hardware and software
(pc/macs, digidesign, roland, akai, yamaha, korg, acid, pro,
reason, pro tools and many more), is future looks bright and
strong! Get Ready!!
