THURSDAY - DJ Digg has been writing about and shooting underground and pop music since 1996. Learning to spin while studying photojournalism at the University of Texas at Austin in 2001, he installed his first Austin Residency in early 2002 at Agave Nightclub on 6th and has maintianed steady residencies across central Texas for the past 3 years.  A beatmixer by heart, he enjoys hip-hop and soul music’s accessibility as much as dance music’s ability to fill a dance floor. He is known for his track selection and versitility and has been spinning a solo 2x4 that has been compared to the renowned Scion DJs Haul & Mason.

"I believe that every track has the ability to evoke a certain tone or emotion, and that superior disk jockeys have an obligation to take their audience on a journey through variety, tempo, and personal technique." DJ Digg

 

SATURDAY - "DJ Crown" is a veteran of the music scene with over seven years of experience.  During this time he has lent his talents to several music acts, most notably for Liquid Stereo Project, the award-winning hip-hop band, and for the Word Association, an up-and-coming central Texas rap collective.  He is also the co-founder of the wildly popular 2x4 Electric Mayhem, a weekly residency running three years strong.   Through projects such as these and through his own efforts, DJ Crown has performed in nearly every major live music venue in Austin and had the chance to share the stage with numerous national touring artists such as Common, Talib Kweli, Aesop Rock, Mr. Lif and Digital Underground.

With a foundation in hip-hop and funk, DJ Crown thrives in veering from the predictable and consistently draws from multiple styles and genres of music.  A seasoned performer and perfectionist, it is clearly evident that his true love and focus is the one-on-one connection with an audience on a dance floor.  This focused connection, coupled with his extremely varied background as a DJ, has allowed him to perfect the ability to read and react to a crowd in any situation.
