| I agree and I know a hell of alot of people who feel the same way. So if any of your plans start coming together let me know and I'll start rallying up the tranceaddicts of Bville!! I've been thinking of doing something similar at the beach I just never thought of bringing a big dj down. |

na bro thanks for the suggestion though. Micro has come down about two times, i dont like that guy at all a lot of people will be like what? micro again, i know im on a budget and cant bring a big big dj but atleast a more decent one. |
Yeah, I don't think I'd ever book him either. He's terrible. But he's got a good draw (excellent here) and I could get him for dirt cheap through a friend that built him here. I just don't think it's worth selling out. I'd rather do quality events, even if the headliner needs to be promoted harder to get the draw you want. We got Steve Porter for April 1st, and he wasn't too bad. He would fit in your budget, and is an amazing dj/producer. |

Ron-e /D-jabe or Snowhite from dallas tx!

SnoWhite, otherwise known as Mary White (formally known as Mary Jane) started her love affair with music at a young age. First she started by playing various instruments in a band and from there, her tastes moved into listening to techno and breaks. After finding electronic music, she was hooked.
With Ron-E and D-Jabe as her older brothers, she was able to go to events and observe the technical and performance aspect of DJing. Attending their gigs really tuned her into the electronic music scene and gave her an understanding of how to rock a crowd.
After a couple of years of watching, Mary decided that it was her turn to step up to the decks. Purchasing turntables from Ron-E, she started practicing day and night to perfect her skills.
Trying to find her sound, Mary started spinning Drum and Bass, then House, and on to Hard House. It wasn't until she found Trance, that she discovered the genre that represented her artistically.
Two of the top labels that represent Mary's sound are Nukleuz and Tidy Trax and can be heard in her sets. Focusing on producing a unique sound, she uses hard house and trance tracks to build her sets with hard banging tunes to melodic trance selections that keep people on the dance floor, but don't wear them out!
SnoWhite has performed at such venues as Soul 2 Soul, The Homebar, Club 039, Times Square, Club Amiance, and the Velvet Hooka.
As Mary progresses as an artist, she is always focusing on pushing herself further technically, and making her sets different from the rest.
SnoWhite is destine to go far, because she is an attractive young lady who knows how to astound a crowd and work the decks! Everyone who sees her perform, falls under her spell.

Ron-e- http://www.epro-recordings.com/
Ron-E has been pounding dance floors across the Southern US for years with his progressive style incorporating hard-edged trance, UK hardhouse, and a touch of breaks. He always comes armed with RedSound's InFader mixer that intimidates even veteran DJs with its three separate cross-faders. Not only does he prove incredible technique behind the decks, but takes it a step further with a modified infrared camera mounted to his mixer to show more than the front row what a tri-fader really is and why he earned the US endorsement spot for RedSound in the UK.
Ron-E has become a legend in the South US by providing The Hybrid Experience at select events. This performance incorporates a live PA and mixed set integrated together with visual triggering systems tailored to event themes. Comprehensive digital routing throughout the Hybrid rig allows for an arsenal of real-time FX and sound manipulation during both live PA and mixed portions of the set. MIDI controlled visuals allow for the tightest integration of A/V display content during the performance. In addition, the E-Pro Animation visual team can be booked alongside Ron-E for the tightest theme integration in the industry. Massive energy levels and communication with event participants through technology using audio and video is the goal of Ron-E's Hybrid Experience.
Ron-E additionally has the ability to perform true four-channel quadraphonic sets. Quadraphonic sets utilize four independent channels of audio to completely immerse and surround event participants similar to a Sony DTSã system would sound like on steroids. Combined with The Hybrid Experience and its integrated visuals, the quadraphonic set yields completely unique effects not available with any other performance on the planet.
Ron-E has led thousands into four consecutive New Years including the most anticipated countdown of the century, the new Millennium. These sets included highly integrated 3D video and full quadraphonic sound during the jaw dropping countdown portion of the set. Live PA audio and video of these main stage countdowns are available on the E-Pro Recordings web site. Participants are guaranteed to never forget a Hybrid Experience New Year's countdown.
Ron-E's reputation has earned him back to back timeslots on main stage with most of the world's top producers and DJs including Paul Oakenfold, Tiesto, George Acosta, Bassbin Twins, Spacemen, Robert Miles, Jurassic-5, Juan Atkins, Nigel Richards, Simply Jeff, Kosheen,, and dozens more. Backing his success with a new nationally released CD in June 2003, an extensive touring schedule with over 60 international stops locked down, and new sponsorships from Cyberdog in London, Fat Cat Media in Ibiza, Feedback Magazine in Texas, and DotDJ in Korea, Ron-E is setting the stage to be one of the fastest rising acts to originate from the United States.

D-jabe- http://www.epik-entertainment.com/http:/
http://www.epro-recordings.com/
D-Jabe seeks to infect more people with a vision. The vision: a world where entertainment reaches an audience on a multi-sensory level. The method of infection: the "Audio-Visual-Attack."
Pertaining not only to sound and light, but also integration of the crowd, D-Jabe's A-V-A rig contains the equipment to stimulate this vision of excitement, music, visuals, and dance. The ever-growing A-V-A consists of customized introductions to sets, pre-rendered synchronized video, an array of triggered strobes, drum modules, and keyboard manipulation. In addition, you can expect CD giveaways at every event.
D-Jabe's talent and equipment are not all that attract a crowd. He integrates the crowd into the music and lifts the atmosphere of the night by reaching each listener, one by one, through his own dancing, verbal communication, and emotional involvement. D-Jabe integrates his introductions and live PA tracks during his sets mixed with a high-energy vinyl selection. His stage presence energizes his audience as he pulls them into a world where a tremendous vibe and love for the music prevail.
D-Jabe trained musically in his childhood on the cello, piano, and sampler-organ instruments. Later, he furthered his musical training in Electronic Acoustic Composition, keyboard training, and music theory classes earning a minor in Music Theory at the University of North Texas.
D-Jabe originally began spinning in 1997 with funky breaks, breakbeat and digifunk. He then evolved his style into progressive trance, hard trance, and UK hard house. He has played for thousands of people at several dozens of large events and clubs. Playing in these environments has earned him spots alongside DJs and performers such as Paul Oakenfold, Dave Ralph, Richard "Humpty" Vission, DJ Tiesto, George Acosta, Guy Smiley, and Skylab 2000, among many others. He has achieved three residencies in the Dallas club scene. They include two distinct residencies at Wall Nightclub, one of which was solo, and a residency Dallas' The Lizard Lounge. He is also part of the E-Pro residence at Club M in Austin. He recently earned a guest mix on Edgeclub 102 in Dallas, the nation's longest running live mixed radio show. All appearances have been very successful, and he has become a Southern-scene favorite among hundreds of competing trance DJ's.
D-Jabe's creativity extends into the visual realm as well. In 2001, after 4 years of training at UNT with his major in Visual Art with a specialization in computer graphic design, his creativity expanded in the form of E-Pro Graphics. He is the founder and lead designer of this addition to the E-Pro Alliance. E-Pro Graphics is the brains and creativity behind the ever-evolving and professional appearance of the Alliance. His abilities come into play as his pre-rendered visuals for the Audio-Visual Attack. These include animations adapted to event themes and introductions.
D-Jabe remains on the Texas based EpiK Entertainment and Spiritual Medicine/Texas Zen Festival rosters with additional management backing from Sound Boom Artist Management of Maine.
Well I hope you find who your looking for!
And hope everything work out!!
Good Luck!!!:) |
