San Antonio is having an event called @EDMDriveIn.  I reached out about getting an opening slot and it turns out they decided to offer a compeition for local DJs to 'fight' for a spot.  So I did it!  I crammed 15 songs into this 30 minutes and offered up 2 originals and 2 mashups to personalize this mix a little bit more.  I hope you like it!

Learning lessons all over the place but thankfully I was able to recover some audio, haha.  It worked out well and this episode turned out awesome!  I'll be posting some of the highlights on social media, but here's the full episode!

You can catch this episode on iTunes, Spotify, and YouTube.  Just search for The Output :)

I'm really excited to announce this week's guest for The Output, @verooofitness.  She's a social media influencer, fitness coach & personal trainer, a business woman, and total badass.  The episode releases on Thursday!  You can find it on iTunes, Spotify, Youtube, and this link below!

I lead off this mix by playing one of the fan favorites off of my EP which is a track titled 'Giving Up'.  It leads off this mix, but mainly because I hope people dig the track and then go check out the amazing music video!

Track of the week (#TOTW): @ 40:30 Eli Brown - Desire

Okay, so I've been working with a company called Aztec Nation for a couple of years now.  After producing several podcasts for their company, the owner, asked me if I wanted to host my own series.  Several discussions later and support from the whole company, I got the thumbs up to start the podcast!  I am super excited to have a LATE NIGHT style talk show, topic & segment based podcast with guests.  Why?!  Because we all need a little entertainment in our lives.

Listen on the way to work, or while you're working.  I think you'll enjoy the things we talk about.  More beautiful things in the works. Just push play ;)

Alisa and her beautiful moves were a perfect fit for this music video.  I had envisioned someone with her beauty and skill matching the emotion of the track, "Giving Up".  She nailed it!

Many thanks to the super talented dancer, Alisa, and The North Pole Dance Studio in San Antonio, TX for allowing me and my team to shoot this video.

Here's the latest mix!  Filled with some of my favorite House, Tech House, and Future House jams of the week.  The last track is one of my favorites.  Who doesn't love those two ladies? :)

Who doesn't like a little bit of nostalgia while watching a music video?  Did anyone else have one of these stereo systems, haha!  I think I still have mine in a closet :)

Today is the day that my first EP, This Is How I Feel, released on all platforms.  It's amazing to think how a small idea grew into four tracks that are being heard by other people.  And it is even more amazing to know that this music is impacting others.  Whether it is motivating people to workout (groovy beats, and thumping house bass :), or having some music to play while they're on a long drive.  As an artist, it's great to know the work is supported.  I am grateful for all of the listeners and giving my music a chance to be heard! 

This project began with the first song "Giving Up".  I was going to release it as a single, but because the lyrics resonated with me so much, I thought I could compile some tracks and ideas to create a project.  I also feel that a lot of work goes into a release, so why not create something where people can listen to multiple songs?  

I was nervous prior to the release, but now I can breathe.  It feels awesome to receive great support from friends, family members, and fans.  It is truly a great feeling!  #thisishowifeel 

If you haven't heard the EP yet, you can check it out on Spotify, Apple Music, Deezer, and all other digital outlets.  I have set this page up just for you! :

Good question!!! It's always cool to know what musicians use when they're creating their tracks.  Here's what gets regular use in my studio:

Digital Audio Workstation:  Logic Pro X

Favorite Plug-In Suite:  Waves

Software Synths:  reFX Nexus, Sylenth, and the good ol' ES2 ;)

I used to be a plug-in hoarder from 2010 - 2013 and then I learned some valuable lessons, haha.
