D-Styles

Born in the Philippines and immigrated to US. Grew up in San Jose, California. Taught myself to scratch in 1984. Sound City was my DJ crew. I entered my first DJ Battle in 1986. Somebody threw a tomato at me. I got my first drum machine at that time and started making beats. My last DJ Battle was in 1993 at West Coast DMC finals in LA. Got hit by another tomato. This is where I met the Beat Junkies. Got violently jumped into the Junkies in 94. Joined Third Sight at this time also (Jihad, Smooth Tone, Dufunk). In late 1996 I joined the Invisibl Skratch Piklz (Shortkut, Qbert, Mix Master Mike). Toured around the world. We all went our separate ways in 2001. Relocated to Los Angeles in 2002. Hooked up with Ned Hoddings (Mike Boo, Toadstyle, Excess, Ricci Rucker) and did the Bastard Language Tour with Daddy Kev. Out of that tour we formed Gunkhole. Became resident DJ at Low End Theory in August 2007. I make beats, scratch and watch Judge Judy.
