DJ AIREK OFFICIALLY RETIRED FROM DJing.........but not dead in the musical sense.

It's time.

Today, Saturday, August 11th, 2007 will be the last time I even use the name DJ Airek. I'm dropping all the terms DJ from all my websites and everything so the engines stop indexing DJ AIREK pages. I'll be focusing on production now instead of djing and performing.

In 1995 I attended a professional recording and producing school in San Francisco called California Recording Institute. Throughout the course I learned many things. I learned how to engineer and mix live sound, produce, mixdown, and master music, and record live musicians.

I completed this course with the intention of moving into the recording arts field. Needless to say I got sidetracked by 12+ years of Djing and Nightclub promoting in San Diego and other spots in California, Mexico, and in general anything to do with the online business.

Recently, I'm not feeling the DJ thing anymore. When I was into it, I was partying heavily, a lot younger, and a lot more wild and adventuorus. Lately, I've been going through some personal decision making periods and I've decided to leave the DJ thing behind all together to pursue full time music production. I have been musically involved and entertaining since age six; It's been a great run. Part of my journey now into producing again is to learn how to play the piano, which I partially already do. Since I play by ear, I have to focus all my creative energy into that before I can fully throw myself in the production world. Of course its not necessary to play piano to produce, however I will be composing my own original music and it will definitely make my life easier.

It won't be long till you're dancing to something that your good buddy Airek produced. 12 years of contacts in the So Cal club scene pretty much guarantees you that I've got contact with the guys on the turntables in the hottest spots around Cali, Vegas, Arizona and Miami to name a few spots. I could never leave music altogether, but I'm passing the headphones to the younger guys coming up that have that passion for staying up with whats going on in the DJ world and giving it to people every week.

Allowing myself to let go of the thing that most ties me to partying and excess will free up energy to focus on producing music for things that will actually pay me considerable money and give me the reward of creating again. I feel brand new.

Thanks for supporting DJ AIREK
