Dave's bio:

Born and raised in Miami, Dave has always been interested in a variety of musical styles ranging from classic rock to hip hop and reggae – however, his first experience with house music wasn’t until he began attending college in Gainesville, Florida. Inspired by the sounds at the legendary clubs Simons and Soulhouse, Dave began DJing in 1997 and has not looked back.

Carefully balancing a demanding schedule at college and his love for the music Dave steadily made a name for himself as one of Florida's up and coming talents. In Spring of 2002, Dave was asked to be a resident at Gainesville's Vibe Nightclub and opened for many of the top acts and artists in the world, including Danny Howells, Phil K, James Zabiela, Jon Lisle, Steve Porter, Infusion, PQM and many others. Around the same time Dave also picked up a monthly residency at the legendary Simons, playing alongside long time Simons resident and good friend Joe C. for their 'I Love Music' events.

During the summer of 2003, Dave hit the road on tour, beginning with another opening appearance for Danny Howells, this time at Vibe, followed by six weeks of appearances playing in New York, Boston, and finally Lima, Peru. In Lima, Dave played at several large events for Orbit Peru (www.orbitperu.com), and headlined several parties including playing alongside Slacker and opening for Quivver with crowds of 1000+. Immediately upon his arrival back in Miami, he was invited by respected promoter Marco Davalos to begin a residency with P:M Sessions at Luna, located in the heart of South Beach. The night has seen great success early on and looks t o become on of the premier nights on the beach in the coming months.

As well as having his residency club gigs, Dave is also a co-founder of www.forwardthinkingmusic.com a web site devoted to promoting artists pushing the boundaries of dance music. Every 2nd and 4th Wednesday of the month from 10am-1pm EDT (US), Dave also hosts his own show called 'Rhythmaculture' which has been gaining accolades from dance music enthusiasts from around the world (www.protonradio.com).

Recently, Dave has also launched his own label ‘Institution Recordings’ with partner Josh Waddell (aka Relisys) and the label has already secured a steady stream of quality releases through the Spring of 2004. Not merely satisfied with merely playing and promoting other people’s music, Dave has also flexed his creative muscles forming numerous collaborations and projects over the last year, working with highly regarded producers including Sphere, Phil K, Habersham, Hisham Samawi, Chris Micali, and Israel Vich.

Dave’s collaboration with Sphere ‘The Bubblegum Track’ was included on disc 2 of Phil K's Balance CD, released in October of 2002 which has been nominated for best release in both the UK and Australian Dance Music Awards. ‘Furball’ another of Dave’s collaborations this time produced under the guise of The Operators was also included on Phil K's cover CD of the June 2003 issue of the international DJ Mag. With his music and projects receiving support from producers and DJ's around the world and an innovative style that fuses house, breaks, techno, and progressive Dave is planning to redefine the boundaries, challenging not only himself but also those of the music itself.
