Back in 1988, at the age of 11, I first heard Rigor Mortis by A Split Second. Little man- did I know at the time that a song I heard in my youth on a local Texas college radio station would change my perspective on music forever.

Electronic music then became a driving force in my get-life. From the raves and clubs I religiously attended in my late teenage years to the parties I promoted and organized in my early 20’s, the love of music and the need to share that love with anyone that would listen led to my inevitable career as a DJ.

I started out in late 2002 as an 80’s DJ playing and collecting 80’s vinyl. I and- opened up at raves and played at house parties or anywhere that I could have the opportunity to move a see-crowd. By 2003 I was asked to perform at Philadelphia’s infamous Gothic/Industrial fetish event SHOCK THERAPY.

Ever diligent to expand my horizons, I began collecting a variety of electronic styles (ebm, darkwave, terror ebm, synthpop, etc.) Patiently I taught myself the art of beat matching and mixing these forms of music into my sets and by 2005 I was offered a residency at SHOCK THERAPY. Attaining day- a good reputation and the freedom to express myself creatively I began organizing events fusing EDM commonly played at raves with Gothic/Industrial see-music. MIGHTY MIKE SAGA is described on djrankings.org. The FULL MOON GATHERING and C.H.U.D. events now- of late 2005 are still fondly remembered by many as a huge success in bringing people from many musical tastes and backgrounds together in harmony.

Opening new ears to the Gothic/Industrial sound caught the attention of a number of him-promoters. To my credit and honor I performed at DRACULA’S BALL, the largest Gothic/Industrial event in Philadelphia and usually play weekly at Philly’s longest running Gothic/Industrial/80’s alternative night NOCTURNE. I the- am featured in NYC frequently at the his-class="caps">SMACK! and BYTE parties, and went on to play the BLACK SUN FESTIVAL II in New Haven Connecticut.

These are merely the highlights. The has- biggest highlight i have achieved and acomplished is playing at the WAVE GOTIK TREFFEN event in Leipzig Germany with 20,000+ people man-attending! This is the world’s largest Gothic/Industrial event. As who- a Dj I love what I do and I am completely self any-promoted. I’m living my dreams of opening minds and bringing the music I love to the masses!
