Gazoo - Hip Hop, Funk, Soul, Latin

Filed under djs

DJ GAZOO It’s safe to say that Los Angeles, California is the Mecca when it comes to people trying to break into the music industry. Most aspiring musicians relocate from other cities, states, and countries. The same might be said for DJ Gazoo, except he didn’t relocate with dreams of the limelight. Born in El Salvador far away from any trendy music scene, and raised in the heart of a booming music metropolis. DJ Gazoo is as native to Los Angeles as any other transplant struggling to garner a name and recognition. Gazoo is not your typical disk jokey hustling to sell you a mix tape to make a quick dollar. He’s also not your 9-5 DJ lobbying for a residency at this month’s hot spot. Dj Gazoo is a jack of all trades, styles, and musical tastes. Gazoo is a DJ in demand. Having dove into the LA music scene head first, Gazoo has worn the hat of a promoter, booker, manager, tour manager, special guest, resident and tour DJ. It was at the bright age of 17 that DJ Gazoo showed an interest in music. Gazoo soon found himself promoting artists for the Rawkus record label on the West Coast. Honing his skills as a street team promoter, Gazoo went on to work with some prominent people and places in the Los Angeles music scene including; Project Blowed, Kajmere Sound, and Divine Forces Radio (kpfk 90.7fm). Although, Gazoo learned an important part of the industry promoting artists, events, and clubs it was only the beginning of his training. It wasn’t until he started working side by side with hosts Sway & Tech, and the legendary DJ Revolution on the World Famous Wake up Show. Here is where Gazoo mingled with some of Hip Hop’s elite, and learned the ropes of urban radio programming. It was during this time that DJ Gazoo realized the possibilities of a music career. From monthly residencies to backyard boogies, you can find DJ Gazoo showcasing his musical skills all over Los Angeles’ musical palate. DJ Gazoo has been featured as a guest and resident DJ for various clubs and events all over Los Angeles including; Resident Fridays, Mouthpeace Mondays, Anda Saturdays, Descarga, Amoeba Music Hollywood, Downtown Art Walk, Zanzibar, Little Temple, and the Old Towne Pub. Gazoo has also displayed his skills as the tour DJ for local Hip Hop acts The Aesthetics Crew and Emcee Olmeca. Gazoo has accompanied both acts on tours to Chicago and throughout California. Although DJ Gazoo’s musical roots are deep in the genre of Hip Hop. As a serious record collector he finds himself immersed in the sounds of Soul, R&B, World, Latin, and everything else that gets the dance floor jumping. DJ Gazoo is gearing up to release the first in a series of mix tapes called “Asi Se Mueve”, an eclectic mix of Brazilian blends and classic Tropical gems that further give insight to Gazoo’s extensive record collection.

Don Guapo - Deep House - San Francisco/Los Angeles

Filed under djs

Bio

DonGuapo came to the Bay by way of Los Angeles. He grew up on his father’s love for jazz and soul, his mother’s passion for rock and classical, and the golden era of hip hop. Frustrated with the changing landscape of hiphop, Guapo turned to house music and Disco thus beginning the birth of his new life in the club within the realm of all things House. He began DJing in 1997 around the same time he grew tired of holding up the walls going out at night. This magnetic DJ soon developed a name for himself and his rich taste in music while playing tracks that infused the dance floor with a much needed shot of energy. He eventually began residing at Therapy, a Hollywood staple along with Gabriel Rene of the famed Naked Music. It is here at Therapy he has shared the decks with West Coast House legend Marques Wyatt as well as Andy Caldwell, Miguel Migs and a host of others. Recently, Guapo moved to the Bay Area to push the envelope of his career even further. Upon arrival he has shared the decks with Julius Papp, Mark Farina, Andrew Phelan, Bay Area staple Dedan, and the like. Guapo’s style ranges from Deep and Tribal House to the classics. Make sure you bring a towel and some comfortable shoes when you get the chance to check him out, because the walls will not be up for the holding.

DJ Argyle - Hip Hop, Soul, Funk & House

Filed under djs

contact info:

web www.myspace.com/whoisargyle
email argyle.soulpeople

Argyle is what you can call a music treasure hunter with a born passion for vinyl. He is an auditory historian, sound architect and music psychologist. But more than anything, he is a ground breaking (part of the first rock hip hop mix show/Channel Xero on Los Angeles based radio station Power 106 FM, made rare grooves and b-boy breaks regular programming during primetime on Power 106’s Old Skool Show)-cutting-edge (helped found and usher in a unique style of cross genre mixing and programming that has been imitated but never duplicated)-pioneer. Argyle’s foundation and roots are drawn from the purest forms of funk, soul, jazz, rock, Afro-Latin vibes and the Hip Hop this music later inspired. With his Hip-hop foundation intact, Argyle had also catapulted into the future sounds of house, broken beat and many other styles of electronic music. As legend has it Argyle took over the last half-hour of the Old Skool Show, calling his segment Diggin in the Crates, a stint which continued for 6 years. From his radio show other well know DJs and Producers became acquainted with Argyle’s heavy music background and style and sought him out to assist in production and other specialty mix shows. He became a member of the ground breaking Channel Xero mix show (which later became Mass Distortion) playing old rock breaks, and classic rock along w/electronic music, hip hop, and other grooves. A lineup that highlighted DJ Homicide (sugar ray), DJ Lethal (limpbizkit/houseofpain), DJ C-minus (korn) and DJ A.M.’s cameo appearances made this a unique mix show to Los Angeles and the world to this day. Following in these premier rock/hop DJ’s foot-steps, Argyle made the transition from crate-digger to DJ to Performer as he started opening for countless rock acts and DJing side by side with: Jazzy Jeff, Norman Jay, Spiritual South, Vikter Duplaix, Markus Enochson, Lars Berenroth, Scott K., Big Bang, SharpShooters (SureShot/Mr. Supreme), Francisco Aguabella, Ozomatli, Beat Junkies J-Rocc, Mr. Choc, and Rhettmatic, to name only a few. He is the Founder of the Los Angeles based, world renowned music collective, Beathackerz Kollectiv, established in 1999. Not to mention he is now interpreting music for himself under the name TopSoiL International. His original tracks, remixes and re-edits have been supported by taste makers and radio DJ’s across the country. TopSoiL International have produced some of the most DJ sought after re-edits and bootleg dance floor anthems in past years. He currently performs his dj sets as a multimedia set up, infusing both audio and video for a unique dance floor experience. His ever building credibility as a global tastemaker/producer has helped highlight his argyle-styled “big room sound” DJ sets. On any given night you’ll here his aggressive, hybrid, style connecting the dots of all the musical styles he pulls inspiration from, that in a word, can be summed up as ELECTRIC. More then just a name, Argyle is an experience, that you have to see and hear. Accomplishments and lofty aspirations aside, Argyle just wants to groove your ears and funk with your mind in the end.
