Why Music?

Everything evolves, dies, or can be a setting example. Today's technological advances allow music to acquire entirely new dimensions while keeping its roots. With movement and composition, Flywash takes mixing all genres of music on vinyl to another level where he manipulates sound elements to produce a cohesive whole, much as a composer writes a composition. Harmonically related and rhythmically synchronized, all aspects of his music create a total Nero-musical experience for the listener!

A Proclaimed DJ!

Flywash has consistently driven the underground Breakbeat scene in the San Francisco Bay Area since 1999. However, his experience does not stop there. Prior to living in San Francisco, he lived in Houston where he regularly performed at clubs, local dives, special venues, and turntable collaborations in the early 1990’s.

Growing up in Connecticut during the 1980's, his drive and passion for mixing vinyl and creating breaks/beats emerged through the exploding break-dance scene in New York City. This is where Flywash discovered his calling and was inspired by DJ's, Break-dancers, and Graffiti Artists pushing him into multiple genres and styles.

With over two decades of professionally trained music compositions, creating original written music and beats, or mixing anything and everything on vinyl, Flywash is a true veteran of the industry displaying a genuine passion for what he creates. His enhanced artistry with his own music of rhythm, harmony, and fresh sounding vocals, makes a perfect blend for any environment, or music lover to capture.

Check him out as he wilds the crowd and keeps you popping with only the freshest sounds of; Breakbeats, Electro, Techno, Tech-House, Drum and Bass, Old School Hip-Hop, 80's Electro, and Industrial music.
