DJ MICRO BIOGRAPHY
DJ Micro is one of the US's premiere dance music producer/DJ/remixers. With over thirteen years behind the turntables, Micro's ability to whip dance floors into a frenzy has made him a clubbing sensation. Starting out in the early nineties along side such East Coast luminaries as Frankie Bones, Adam X and Onionz, Micro helped to put the New York underground on the global dance map with his energetic fusion of styles; his live sets described by XLR8R as "unleashing a groove too thick to mention" and by URB as "spiced with rippling acid melodies and plenty of surging drumrolls."
Micro's thirst for new sounds and DIY ethic led him to form the seminal dance label Caffeine, which spawned the longtime East Coast clubbing institution of the same name, where, as resident and main man, Micro rocked capacity crowds week after week. As a natural progression from his success as a DJ, label owner and promoter, Micro began creating his own music. In 1994 he joined with Vicious Vic under the moniker Progression. The duo became overnight heroes in the international dance scene following the release of their massive debut single Reach Further. They were soon commissioned to remix artists from Paradise 3001 and Joe T. Vanelli to Masters at Work, and the X Files theme.
Following on heels of Progression, Micro went on to produce a string of successive hits for respected dance labels Ministry of Sound, Strictly Rhythm, Nervous/Sorted, Adrenalin, Moonshine, and Black Sunshine. With Micro's visibility and reputation continuing to grow, he began performing at clubs and raves worldwide, including tours of the US, Japan, England, Canada and Brazil.
In addition to his original productions and remixes, Micro has released some of the biggest selling mix CD compilations in America, including: 'Coast to Coast', 'Micro Tech Mix, 'Micro Tech Mix version 2.0', 'Techmix 2000', djmixed.com/micro, Techmix Live, Music Through Me, and My Frequency 001.
There is no simple way to sum up a dance music phenomenon such as DJ Micro: the acclaimed DJ, remixer, producer, and label founder never fails to conjure an ecstatic night of pumping progressive sounds wherever he performs. With his storied past and bright future, DJ Micro continues to elevate his place in the world American club culture. And the release of Out through The input takes Micro that much further towards the top!
