MONISM | LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA
With nearly 15 years behind the decks, and a label boasting some of the industries most integral remixers & producers, the need for aggressive social networking and “in your face” marketing sits far behind the ethos of a man and his passion for electronic music. The idea that, “nothing is sacred,” is merely just an obsession in the minds of sensationalists. His knack for music came as early as he could sit by his mothers piano, let alone opening the sleeves of records as he carefully placed them on the platter. And as early as 1993, he began mixing hip hop, learning the curve of early turntablism, a skill that would benefit him in the much more linear process of mixing dance music. By 1996, he was immersed in the United States rave scene, and by 1999, playing his mix of bass driven tech house and breaks accompanied by his skills as a scratch dj. He gained popularity through both rave and club circuits, opening for artists like Hip-House pioneers The Jungle Brothers to Progressive dance music veteran John Digweed. He quickly became involved in writing impromptu reviews for magazines such as URB, XLR8R & Rinse. A former buyer for Satellite Records Boston, his knowledge of dance music spans the spectrum of convoluted sub-genres. And as if this wasn’t enough for the loins of his New England roots, At 23, he picked up with nothing but a bicycle and 600 dollars, and moved to Los Angeles. Becoming Highly immersed in the field of technology, he quickly graced the halls of Apple Inc.’s Cupertino Campus, only to then find himself on the set of famous cartoon Family Guy. With technology as a mainstay of income to fund his and others ideas. Enter Monism. And independent label founded on the values of expressing the artists needs, without anxiety of what has become a top ten dance music mentality. Whatever happen to Karlheinz Stockhausen or Pierre Henry? The idea is to challenge the ordinary. In the booth, MO7S sound and style is all his own, encompassing forward thinking dance music as a whole. He is credited by his peers and allies as a great contributor to modern American dance, bringing energy to the dance floor, and inspiration to the minds of many. In more ways then one, there is no father to the element he brings to the table.
