Damen Outlander - Absolut Vanishin Point
A finely-honed mix with designs of transporting its listeners through relative time and space via starship composed primarily of dance, thought and respect for the gods o
Damen Outlander - Candy Man Pimpin Mix
A smooth transition of long intricate mixes, synching chords and beats, and groans and moans in a sensual compilation of old and new school vibe.
New Jersey born old skooler.
Would attend Zanzibar to listen to Tony Humphries or go the Paradise Garage and listen to Larry Levan - in my absolute opinion the Jimi Hendrix of all DJs - and be in awe of them.
I had an uncle that would take me over to Brooklyn to attend three-day weekend block parties, where local no name DJs would thump the techniques non-stop with Get on the Funk Train (Munich Machine) Kool and the Gang with Open Sesame, Donna Summer, et. al.
Stationed in Japan, I purchased my first equipment, and that was when I truly began to learn how to play. As I progressed, living abroad in St. Lucia, and in Mexico, and Canada before settling for Seattle (The Emerald City), I began to adopt a more theatrical skill set to my mixes, remembering the Greats from my childhood.
I've since been sidetracked, working in the Computer Industry, and having written a failed sci-fi novel, but I've always played here and there, een if "here" was just my bedroom.
Now, I'm more comitted to just playing than playing out. If the latter happens and I get the opportunity to spin for a dancing crowd like I did in my heyday, that's cool too.
I also delve a bit into mixing with video.
