Wow. February was one of the craziest month that I've
ever had. Because of this, the site and the mixes have
suffered. I've had a few people emailing me wondering
if I had disappeared and quit the DJ biz :) I think a
lot of the newer people don't know that I'm not a
"professional" DJ and that I do this as a hobby. By
"professional" I mean I don't make my living out of it
(I've been DJ'ing for over 20 years). What I really do
for a living is Visual Effects for feature films and
mainly TV commercials. I own my own VFX company and I
am the main artist. This past month was completely out
of control. One job after another non stop. I am not
exaggerating when I am saying that I was working 12 to
14 hour days every single day in February (including
the week ends). I even had to find somebody to replace
me for my residencies because I just could not take
myself away for a few hours to go DJ. I was mainly
working on a feature film that's coming out this fall
called City Of Ember and a Fiat commercial that will
run in the European Union. If you live in Europe and
see a TV commercial with a bunch of Fiats driving in
the Moroccan desert that's my work. Most of the cars
are CG (created in the computer) but they look photo
real.
On top of that my best friend in the whole wide world, Geronimo my Great Dane, got really sick and ended up in emergency care for a few days. We found out that he has a genetic heart condition that is common in big dogs. I knew this would happen one day (I've had Great Danes all my life) but not this soon. He is only 4 years old. My goal right now is to make his quality of life as good as possible for what ever time he has left. I'm optimistic that he will get better so I'm not writing him out already. My last Great Dane lived until he was 10 1/2 years old (their average life span is 7 to 9 years).
Again, thank you all for your patience. I do this site and my DJ'ing for the love and passion I have for House Music and because I like to share it with the world but sometimes life gets in the way.
