Craig Messina AKA DJ CraigM
Craig M has been around in the mix for a while (since the release of Technotronic's "Pump Up the Jam), starting with all kinds of house parties using nothing more than self made "mcguyvered" pitch controlled tape deck, 2 channel mixer, painted black, complete with led gains on the line faders (SL1200s out of bounds @ the time for a 13 year old), a siren, UV light & mirror ball... only deciding to go live, September 2010, where he was given a shot twice on GHFM's 411, with gigs @ Ivy League, 31, Ibiza Legends Opening Set @ Trinity & regular slots @ Cafe Mambo (en route to Stellenbosch). All influences of music inspires him, mainly the likes of Progressive, Deep Tech, Tribal, Electro & ALL Local House DJs, Hip Hop & RnB...Loves playing on any setup, from CDJ100s -2000s, Traktor S4, steadily moving onto some Novation goodies (Twitch & Ableton) to elevate & deliver better live, on the fly performances for the crowd...More to follow from this upcoming BeatFreak
