   VISHVAMUSIC: General Info
Member Since9/9/2005
Band MembersI began radio disk jockeying in 1991 on KALX Radio, 90.7FM, Berkeley, California, and hosted "Roots Education", a show focused on reggae, hip-hop, and conscious international music, for 7 years. I gave out many a prized ticket to reggae concerts in the Bay and conducted interviews with artists. Through meeting DJs at the station, in 1994 I got into club/party DJing.

I have always promoted female artists more favorably since I believe we need to support each other in this music game. I dream of one day seeing 50% women musicians, producers, club owners, and artists in all genres, to reach true balance in the industry. The "top friends" on my page are women artists I truly believe in and support, many from the Bay Area where I lived for 15 years.

Bay Area parties I played...
Dubmission, The Top, Maritime Hall, the Justice League (the Independent), Club 6, the Elbo Room, the Up and Down Club, Club Deco, 111 Minna Street Gallery, Covered Wagon Saloon, DNA Lounge, the Endup (Club Dread), Aquarius Party at the Peacock Lounge, The Tunnel Top, Asian Massive at Il Pirata, Soul Shakedown, and Nickie’s BBQ in San Francisco; Palookaville in Santa Cruz; Rasputin’s Record Store, Club Chibbo, and La Pena Cultural Center in Berkeley; Kimball’s East in Emeryville; Oakland Reggae at Eli’s Mile High Club, Higher Ground, On Broadway, Bluesville, Luka's Tap Lounge, and Colonel Starbottle’s in Oakland; Mad Professor, Lee Perry and the Robotiks at Maritime, Sizzla 4/20 Weekend at The Independent

Festivals I played...
PEX 2008, the Monterey Bay Reggae Festival 2002, Sierra Nevada World Music Festival 1998; Afribbean Festival 2000; Change Music San Francisco Conference 2000

Memorable New York nights....
Sputnik, the Leopard Lounge, the 205 Club, Sutra Lounge, Kush Lounge, the Royale and the Black Star Bar. Women of Reggae event in Brooklyn 2008, New Year's Loft party with Nicodemus

Now, Philly!
The Adidas store, Byblos, Medusa and Denim.

Some of my more notable interviews were with: Barrington Levy, Sugar Minott, Yami Bolo, Pablo Moses, Ras Michael and the Sons of Negus, Ras Sam Brown, Don Carlos, Frankie Paul, Buju Banton, Beenie Man, Mad Cobra, the Abyssinnians, LKJ, Sister Carol, Sister Nancy, Dawn Penn, Mutabaruka, Mad Professor (UK), Black Steel, Winston Francis, the Mighty Diamonds, Sizzla, Capleton, the Mandators, Dawn Penn, Della Grant, the Twinkle Brothers, Nadine Sutherland, Sister Alison (UK), Nolan Irie, Dread Flimstone, Rocker T, Spearhead, Born Jamericans, Steve Barrow (Blood and Fire), Daddy Kool (UK). I was involved with the Bay Area Hip Hop Coalition and attended three Gavin radio conferences, in Oakland, New Orleans, and San Diego, on behalf of KALX.

2010:: I will be featured in a book on South Asians in Hip-Hop... and am producing a track based on the Guidance riddim on this page... Stay tuned...
