DJ MIST



DJ Mist is a force to be reckoned with the way he “transformed” himself into an entire movement. Hailing from Augusta, GA, DJ Mist learned to entertain relatives at family barbecues, which eventually lead him to start producing. Recalling receiving his first pair of turntables from his father, by age 8, MIST has not only made a name for himself as a “Turntable God”, he had also managed to set aside enough space in his schedule to become one of the most sought after running backs in the nation. After accepting an athletic scholarship from Middle Tennessee State University, MIST played collegiate football for two years before the untimely 2004 passing of his mother, Victoria Gunter, brought him back to his roots of Augusta, GA; but not prior to sharpening his already tremendous skills while in Tennessee enough to return home and make a career out of DJing, and producing. DJ MIST was recognized and nominated amongst his peers as “Slept On DJ of the Year” at the Southern Entertainment Awards (SEA) in 2006. Flying high off his monstrous street credibility, MIST extended his notoriety once again in 2007, when the Infamous Oomp Camp came knocking at his door; ultimately earning himself a membership in the world famous Southern Style DJs.Now embracing the worldwide stage, Mist is spinning at various clubs around the U.S., officially tour DJing for the nationally acclaimed DJ Unk (Oomp Camp Records/Koch). Humble, and known as a man of very few words, when asked how he manages to handle everything with so much poise, MIST just simply shrugs and says, “It’s just a mixture of God’s will and Victoria watching over me I guess.”
