Kevin Alves
better known as Gift, was originally from Chicago but moved to Denver early on in his life and has lived there since. Gift started DJing in 1998 and landed his first DJ gig at the biggest club in Colorado at the time Soma. Gift became the resident DJ for Silver Saturdays at Soma at only the age of 18 and held that residency
For 2 years. While at Soma, Gift had the chance to spin in the company of superstar
talent such as Sandra Collins, Chris Fortier, Nick Warren, Timo Maas, Jerry Bonham,
and a majority of the other DJs from the Balance series. Gift luckily had the chance
To open for Chris Fortier one evening during his residency at Soma. Chris Fortier
listened to Gifts set and decided to call him later and invite him to be in the
Balance record pool. Accepting the offer, Gift became the youngest DJ ever to be
involved in the Balance record pool!
After his residency at Soma and invitation to the Balance record pool, Gifts popularity increased immensely throughout the electronic music scene and clubs in Colorado. He spun at many of Denvers largest and most popular clubs such as Pure, Amsterdam, and The Sanctuary. Throughout the past few years, Gift had the chance to greatly expand his musical comprehension and experience some of the greatest progressive music gems. These opportunities eventually interested him into producing music that would be spun around the world in the same manner that he had spun tunes from other famous dj..s and producers. Shortly after this, interest in producing began; he produced his first release Duration which was signed to Pure Music. Gifts production abilities developed
rapidly from then on. He currently has two more releases out now on Vapour Recordings and a single included on Nervine Records new compilation.
His interests in progressive music production and DJing will never diminish and are consistently maturing and expanding as he becomes even more widely involved in the community of professional production. Even today the biggest DJs are playing his tracks in the largest clubs around the world: Sasha, Steve Lawler, John Digweed, Chris Fortier, Kasey Taylor, and Hernan Cattenaeo to name just a few of the DJs. Most recently Gift was signed to one of the most popular record labels Lost Language and remixed a tune originally produced by world-renowned producers Tilt.
In addition, Gift currently holds a residency at Denvers club Lotus and is continuously looking to further his production and djing possibilities and spread his music to the community of electronic music enthusiasts.
"I Believe music is a gift to us all, and I want to share a (Gift) of music to people"

sorry about that I must have given you the wrong one.
That's funny because I tried that one a while ago too, the one I gave you, and it made me all mad because they sucked real bad, and they didn't pay too good either they offered like sweepstakes and stuff instead of cash.
But anyways, the right site is
www.tops12.com
it's the one I am making $650 a week with putting in about 23 hours a week, sometimes up to like 30 hours if I'm daydreaming.
After you get your membership make sure you sign up with the companies on page one in the members section because they are the ones that pay you the most, I got $75 for one that took me 25 minutes today. You'll see what I'm talking about when you get in there.
Jackie started taking them too and she's making $800 a week, it's making me so mad because I'm the one that showed her which one to sign up with now she's making more than me.
Alright well me and Owen are getting ready to leave now, just give me a call or I'll catch you on here and let me know if you have any problems with your membership. TTYS hun
Skylab is right around the corner. Just wanted to wish you all the best. Get in touch when things aren't so crazy. Wish I could be there...gonna be amazing!
