DJ AIM (Arms in Motion) - I know there is an 'Aim' out there on Grand Central Records, he is dope and you should check him out too, but I'm not him. I am Arms In Motion.
Influences
Public Enemy (the greatest) // Anti-Pop Consortium, travelling back from the future to deliver hip-hop messages // Danger Mouse, held in highest regard in terms of production work // DJ Spinna, your instrumentals make me feel so good, thankyou // Dabrye - new school cats everywhere // Too many others to mention, big ups to all of the heads out there on Stones Throw, Rawkus, Def Jux, Fat Beats, Ninja Tune ... I could go on... and not just with hip-hop.
I officially endorse these fine products // Ableton Live // Akai MPK49 Controller keyboard (go buy one now) // Technics turntables // Denon mixers // M-Audio powered products // Native Instruments // KORG // Freeware VST's and the people who write them // Computer Music mag // Battle records // Dusty old vinyl // Digital control vinyl.
I come from a small city Perth - in Western Australia. I make beats and deejay (cutting scratching mixing.) I love collecting vinyl, punching pixels and a whole bunch of other fun junk.
Music is the language of the soul... I love to spin all things hip-hop, dancefloor breaks and beats, tripped out left-field electronica, sometimes grime, dubstep - with my own flavour. So far I have been lucky enough to support acts like Percee P, Busdriver + Anti MC, Spank Rock, Foreign Beggars and not to mention Vanilla Ice (seriously) along with local Aussie cats like Nick Sweepah and IVENS from the Awakenings crew, Low Budget, Elf Tranzporter + Dj Wasabi, Dexter, Curse Ov Dialekt plus others

What is a DJ if he can't scratch? I believe a large part of recreating a true live experience when you are rocking a show is being able to speak with your hands - just like the old school DJ's from the Bronx did back in the day. There are loads of cats out there who can play track after track and blend with no problems, but what are you going to bring to the table when that gets boring?
SUPPORT - Innovation, local talent and friends, new ideas and forms of noise-making, the next generation, be kind to other music lovers around you and never in ignorance.
EXPORT - Bland pop commercialism, people ignorant towards musical aspiration and creativity, kids growing up in manufactured pop/fashion culture with no foresight... and for the record f*ck MTV for what it has become.
