Music




Origin & Meaning behind his name : Brian + 12’inch vinyl records….shorten it up & you got B12. In addition there is the vitamin B12…. Vitamin B12 is important for the normal functioning of the brain and nervous system and for the formation of blood. It is involved in the metabolism of every cell of the body…..in other words….it supports your bodies natural energy. What else could you want on the dance floor!

Bio of B12:

B12 has had a love for music since his child hood. His beginnings started with his mother who would turn up the radio & sing out loud to him as a young boy. This is when music made its mark on his life. Fourteen years of age is when his obsession with mixing started. He started cutting & pasting Reel to Reel tapes & making mixes of different songs, mostly with early rap, hip-hop & funk. At the age of sixteen he got his hands on a set of turn tables. And of course then he blew all the dust off of his mother’s old vinyl records & started the path that he is on today of being a dj. B12 is the perfect example of a self taught dj in the making. His time spent behind the tables is limitlessness.

He got into the electronic music scene around 94-95. Djing & being apart of it all became a passion for him. In 99-2000 he started Focus Productions which has hosted many memorable events since then. Done right, with quality, uniqueness, creativity & always…..always with that banging sound & music. His involvement in this scene stretches into a business aspect with his company B’s Customs which rents out professional sound for events.

B12 as a dj is known for his diversity & solid flawless mixing. His smoothness & transitions is what sets him apart from other djs. His track selection is always on the edge of new music with the slight touch of an old school feel. He is notorious for taking his listener on a complete journey. Weither the genre be progressive, minimal, tech, dark, house, break-beat, big-beat, electronica or straight techno…..B12 is always mixing it up.

His current venture is going beyond djing. Taking it to another level and going behind the scenes of our electronic community. He is in the process of getting a line of dj’s together under Focus Productions to write, mix, & produce music together. His efforts are to create & share something new with all of us that have ventured into the wonderful world of electronic music. ***********************************************************************************************




Music has always served as an expression for Raphael Freud’s state of being. RAphael commands an energy flux between himself and the hedonists of the dance floors from coast to coast setting a whimsical mood for his taunting blend of ELECTRO, HOUSE, TECHNO, 80’S, NU SKOOL BREAKS, & TEK-HOUSE, He constantly upgrades his sets with the best globally produced tracks and self-produced tracks, weaving them together to create a vibrant musical tapestry........“I always think of how I can compose and be creative with the music. I play by tapping into the vibe of the dancers.”........

He began his quest into the NY underground electronic music scene in 1988 spinning under the pseudonym “ELEMENTAL” He followed this growing phenomenon all around the East Coast living amongst the hedonists of the NYC’s Clubland as a Clubkid / DJ, working at NYC’s infamous Limelight, Tunnel, Paladium and Twilo. He lived off a steady diet of A-List Glamazonz, International DJ’s and recording artists. He moved from hotspot to hotspot igniting the decks and promoting events to eager patrons. Eventually settling down at Twilo (1999-2001), where he worked and played alongside DJ Dan, Sasha and Digweed, DeepDish, Paul Van Dyke, Jeff Mills and Carl Cox.

Along with Djing he has also headed up Production crews Eden Collective (Tri-State Area), Pangea (SF Bay Area), and REVIZ (NM) …producing hundreds of events with Global Superstar Performers. Now Raphael finds himself a new state and a new club to call home. Look out ABQ there’s a new Clubkid in town……!

Jeremy Landon’s journey of music began at a very early age. At the age of 10, he wondered into a local church where he found himself drawn into the sounds of the choir. The uplifting sounds inspired him to become a part of the group. He continued down the vocal journey of sound via his local junior high school chorus group. It was at the tender age of 13 when his musical taste shifted gears and turned to the dark-side after picking up a copy of Frankie Bones-Factory 303. After repeated play, he soon became an addict of New York techno. Soon after, Jeremy found himself attending underground rave parties in Albuquerque, New Mexico, becoming a slave to the bass-driven dance grooves being pushed through massive sound systems. During the summer of 2001, Jeremy and longtime friend Keith Warren (Co-Founder of Electrotech Productions) got their hands on a set of belt-drive turntables and a mixer and began experimenting with vinyl. This soon became the “summer of jam.” Over the next eight years, Jeremy has been influenced by many DJ’s/artists/producers both on a local as well as mainstream level. Having never lost sight of the underground, Jeremy has played a number of warehouse, club, and outdoor desert parties in the New Mexico area. Since his journey began he has been affiliated with Desert Moon Productions (Albuquerque, NM). Recently, Jeremy has joined forces with Focus Productions. Be on the lookout in the future as Jeremy is currently continuing his journey of EDM through music production. You never know what will come from the dark depths of Jeremy’s musical mind. ***************************************************************************


As a child, Lucas Romero a.k.a. L.Disko was constantly immersed in music From Michael Jackson & Diana Ross to Santana & BB King. Throw in his early passion for hip hop, funk, soul and R&B and you got the formula that keeps his selections funky.

After countless bedroom dj sessions and endless crate digging Luke felt it was time to be heard. Squeezing through the cracks of the NM club scene Luke found himself at the forefront of Abq's club land sharing residencies and obtaining nights all his own, Meeting friends and mentors along the way. Deep funky house was the drug of choice.

Four years later, he's ready and eager to return to his underground roots with a barrage of bangers aimed directly at the dance floor. Prepare yourself to party...

Carlos started mixing records when he was a in high school, thanks to his wonderful sister, and brother in law. After 3 years later, Carlos became very confident in his own skills and choice of music which ranges from the sultry sounds of the east coast, to the beautiful and sometimes techy house tunes of San Fransisco. His influences are those like Chuck Love, Miguel Migs, Jake Childs, Lawnchair Generals, Louie Vega, Claude Vonstroke,and many many more. Carlos also experimented with many genres, like breaks, dubstep, and drum & bass, Carlos found his heart lies with deep, sexy, and soulful house music. He also love all forms of House and EDM, and all his friends that have met in his journey from a young kid searching for his sound up to now. Still very young and still playing many forms of House and EDM. He hope's to travel the US and other European countries to experience other scenes and other forms of music. He can proudly say that he is a true House Music lover till he die's. Long live the deep, chunky, phunky, phat beats! And a big Thank You to his sister Casandra, who has inspired him to follow his dreams and let the music set everyone free.......

Jim began his journey as a DJ in 1999, and has been progressing ever since. He has always had a passion for finding and listening to unique types of music, and once he discovered sounds and styles that incorporated electronic elements, he was instantly hooked. Growing up, Jim constantly searched for music styles to keep him entertained, listening to 80's bands and artists that had the electronic elements in their songs. From bands and artists like DEVO, Depeche Mode, Erasure and Kraftwerk, Jim knew that he found something he liked. Of course being someone who loved a variety of styles and sounds Jim also found enjoyment in listening to various industrial artists and groups like Front 242, Nitzer Ebb, & Skinny Puppy.

It wasn't until the year of 1995, when Jim discovered the NM Dance/Rave scene and attended weekly club nights at Club UN in Albuquerque, NM. Watching local DJ's like Leo Matthew, Shawn Parker, Donovan, and the Reverend Mitton, and how they worked the crowed with style and music selection, Jim realized he wanted to share his love for his music with anyone he could.

Since then Jim has constantly been involved in the NM scene and had the opportunity to play alongside some of the biggest names in the industry such as Dave Trance, Adam X, John Debo, Frankie Bones, Prophet, Deepsky, Thomas Michael, and opening for DJ Hardware while on his 2001 "New Beginnings" tour. Playing at some of the best nightclubs in New Mexico, from Millennium and a frequent opener at Pulse Nightclub for resident DJ Leo Matthew, Jim continues to grow as an artist and looks forward to seeing you move on the dance floor!
