AUX ASSAULT DJ's




DJ DIJITAL



Di'jital is indeed the prototype for a dj. Drawing from hip hop influences and the birthright of the Detroit sound, Di'jital began his ascent of the dj ranks over a decade ago, pumping the clubs with his broad musical tastes Juan Atkins, Kraftwerk, Afrika Bambatta and rap and hip hop. Yet, from the beginning,
Di'jital's declared mission was straight forward "to keep the crowd moving all night long." His furious mixes are dizzying, a weaving, blending and matching of rudimentary beats to create virtual medleys from the score of tracks he tugs from his crate. This mix is a prototype of its own with some of the Detroit best artists.

Di'jital has tuned in on the skills it takes to drive the dance floor, taking command of the decks he consistently delivers his musical perspective to growing numbers of fans across the globe. But, in the beginning, he knew nothing of the international dj lifestyle, what drove him was the desire to simply be,
as he says, "a dj who works all the time." He began on a double cassette deck in his parents, house. His combination of diligent practice and talent took him
far beyond his first set of turntables. He later became the Aux 88 dj and toured for years with the group and enjoyed much success. "Its was like a dream
came true", he says. His debut release on Direct Beat, "Prototype", began his journey to selfhood, into what he calls "sinister techno bass." He is currently in
the studio recording for Underground Resistance and also working on several remixes and tracks for
Puzzlebox Records.
