New Music- B.O.B.

I'm going to start using this to post new music that I would play at my party as well. Hopefully this gives you guys and any visitors a view of the music I love and what got my into DJing in the first place.

Here's two videos by a hot new artist, B.O.B. I think this guy might explode this year. Seems very similar to Andre 3000 with a little Pharrell and Kanye West influcences too (though mostly in his fashion with those two). The first song is his new single, while the second is a spoof of the recent Autotune craze. If you enjoy, you can also catch B.O.B. on T.I.'s latest album, "Paper Trail" in the song On Top of the World. Hope you enjoy.

Updated Business Card & New Event

Going to be DJing the Phi Sigma Fraternity Around the World Party on Feb. 7th, an event I expected I would probably be doing, but finally got the confirm today. It should be lots of familiar faces, so lots of fun there.

Also, I have made a few changes and finalized my business card. I have printed a couple of these and am handing them out, so if you see me around, feel free to ask for one! I should have a professional printing of them in a few weeks. I'll put a pic of it up later this evening, as well as a shot of my newpaper ad I'm working on, once I complete it.

Business Card mock-up

One last post for the evening: My first mockup of a business card. Not sure if this one will ever be published, but it's my first try at coming up with something to promote myself. The website www.vistaprint.com seems to have pretty good pricing, but only ok reviews online. Should probably keep searching...


AOPi Christmas Party

Here are a few pics from the Sorority Christmas formal I did back in December. Enjoy!

All the AOPi Seniors take a group shot.

1st Entry

So I'm starting this to chronicle and document the progression of my entrepreneurship as a DJ. As of today I have two gigs under my belt: the AOPii formal/house party and JBK Hardware's Christmas party, both back in December. I will be posting pictures shortly from the formal, which went great, and kinda got me on my feet with this whole thing. Since then I have upgraded all my equipment, and have made big moves towards formalizing this as an actualized vision.

As for my future plans, I have already been asked to DJ Faith Paulick's wedding this October in North Carolina, and also have plans to advertsise via the Washington College student newspaper this spring (bygones be bygones as far as my past difficulties with that publication go) and have begun pushing my name pretty aggresively around the area. I have high hopes, but only time will tell if the events roll in as I hope, especially with the way the economy is. More to come soon!
