For me, music is life. It's like breathing. I
can never get enough. I have a wide range of musical tastes and influences. I think growing up in Miami
during the '70s & '80s has blessed me with a great appreciation for not only the mainstream sounds of that generation (ie. rock, punk, synth
and metal) but has allowed me to be exposed to what I consider to be one of the
must culturally diverse and eclectic sounds ever... Miami Bass & Electro! Of
course, let's not forget the New York rap scene which is every bit as powerful.
With that said, here is a list of many of my favorite Old School & Hip-Hop artists...

There is no greater thrill for me than to share my love of music with people. To be able to see the effect that music has on people's feelings and emotions, and how it makes them move on a dance floor is a tremendous high.
DJ dYgYtAl is actually starting to get caught up a little bit. A 3=day weekend really helps. 於 2009/5/24。 檢視更多
Aside from my fantastic wife (I love you so
much!) and our 5 wonderful children, there is no greater thrill for me than to
share my love of music with people. To be able to see the effect that music has
on people's feelings and emotions, and how it makes them move on a dance floor
is a tremendous high.
After many years of DJing for house parties
and small social events, I am finally moving into more mainstream DJ
events. Unfortunately, the club scene in Utah is extremely disappointing and
doesn't provide very many opportunities.
I was born and raised in Miami, FL. Because
of this, my major musical influnce has mostly been the '80s Miami Bass scene.
Growing up with such artists as 2 Live Crew, Boogie Down Productions / KRS-One,
MC A.D.E. (Thank God for WEDR) and DJ Laz (Courtesy of Power 96!) I have formed
an unusual taste for the original Ghetto Bass. Further influenced by Melle Mel,
Grandmaster Flash & the Furious 5, and Run-DMC brought me closer to more
rhythmic styles of Rap.
Of course, growing up in the '80s has also
given me the advantage of appreciating groups like Depeche Mode, Yaz, Duran
Duran, AC/DC, Berlin, Metallica... You get the idea.
I guess I am trying to say that I simply
enjoy music. For me it always tells a story; It always sets a mood. It expresses
feelings in a way that nothing else can.
Be sure to check out my Web Radio at
http://www.dygytalradio.com for a mix
of hip-hop, classic & alternative rock, heavy metal, punk, new wave.
Peace and Love.
我想認識:
People I'd like to meet... Hmmmm
Grandmaster Flash- I wish I understood at
the time what the impact of "Grandmaster Flash and the Wheels of Steel" was
going to have on both myself and the music industry at large. I would love to be
able to go back to those days and look at the birth of hip-hop with the wisdom I
have now. To be able to fully understand what was happening, you know?
Morgan Freeman- One of today's most
influential actors. I remember watching him on The Electric Company as a kid and
thinking how cool he was. Now, with such movies as Shawshank Redemption, Kiss
the Girls, Along Came a Spider, and Driving Miss Daisy in his repertoire, he has
proven to be as skilled an artists as any actor I have seen before him.
Hugh Laurie- Two words... HOUSE, M.D. (nuff
said)
Bill Cosby- Now here is a man who can bring
a person to his knees with laughter. I have never seen anyone with such comedic
presence and timing. And besides, who wouldn't want Bill Cosby for a dad? He's
just too cool.
Rachel Ray- She's just too cute and knows
how to party.
Paula Deen- Not only is she cool, but boy
can she cook!
I am sure I'll think of some others as time
goes on.
Yes, I am sad to say that I would probably go over the bridge to get it. lol. I work so many hours away from home that this is my life line home. Sadly I carry two phones as I have a work cell also.
ewwwwwww.....Sanka!!! I've never had it and I doubt I ever will! There's this little Cuban coffee shop that I've been stopping at in the morning and today, it just tasted like poo and the girl at the counter was rude. Oh well. I'm off to the dentists in a few minutes anyways :)
Actually it did. I've been in Atlanta 3 times this weekend. Twice for layover flights and drove through there Sunday. I was driving a 26 ft. Penske moving truck up to Williamsburg, VA from Lafayette, LA. If I'd had more time I'd have given you a holla.
