Hello, my name is Allen. Thank you for taking the time to read a little bit about my past, present and future of my passion for music.
When I was as young as seven years old, my mom would take me and my 2 brothers shopping in downtown Albuquerque every payday and allow us to pick out our favorite 45 record. By the time I reached middle school I had quite an extensive collection of 45 records and soon had an entire album collection. We owned a Magnavox ceramic turntable with a single 18” woofer and a 6” mid-range speaker, and as the neighborhood DJ would crank the latest tunes so loud the whole neighborhood would hear....Hello, my name is Allen. Thank you for taking the time to read a little bit about my past, present and future of my passion for music.

By the time I reached middle school I had quite an extensive collection of 45 records and soon had an entire album collection. We owned a Magnavox ceramic turntable with a single 18” woofer and a 6” mid-range speaker, and as the neighborhood DJ would crank the latest tunes so loud the whole neighborhood would hear. By the time I reached high school I was heavily into breakdancing and hung out with and inspired by some of the local DJ’s like Talk of The Town and Masters of Sound. Right after high school I joined the Navy and continued collecting music. In the early 90s I managed to collect over 500 cassette tapes – I was that guy with a 50 pound boom box on his shoulder blasting music in public places like the city bus or at the State Fair.
My first DJ event was 5 years ago when a couple of my friends wanted to have a New Year’s Eve party. The opportunity of using a friend’s professional DJ equipment came about. The rest is history – I haven’t stopped since! I am constantly learning more and more each day and having fun while doing it. I’m like a kid on Christmas morning when I purchase a new piece of DJ equipment or get butterflies when someone books an event. I love playing music! Especially playing music people like. I understand what it’s like being on the other end of the DJ booth so I’ve learned to cater to a variety of audiences with a variety of music.
I heard someone once say “if you enjoy what you do for a living, you’ll never have to work another day in your life”. I honestly get that.
Although I have a weekly job which I also enjoy, I am able to use my electronic skills as an electronics technician and apply some of the techniques to this fast-paced technology we’re in.
