I've been looking for a right time to interview a DJ who can give me insights on how DJs approach and appreciate the world of music. 







The aim of this interview is to know more about the DJs and when they first started out scratching their own DJ thingy and what prompts them to do more scratching.

DJ JASON DEWEY


JASON MICHAEL DEWEY a retired professional baseball player originally from New York and moved to Florida at age nine.

At age 18, he got into modelling. Done commercials like LISTERINE, SNICKERS and GAME WORKS. Appeared in ads like TOM HILFIGER, POLO, RALPH LAUREN and ton of print works that appeared in a magazine and newspapers.


He also attended school for FILM and TELEVISION in NYC but could not finish it because of his hectic schedule in baseball.



Now that he is done in baseball and modelling, his current job is to do some scratching.

A live remix DJ, an artist, a producer and a performer. He love to make his own music and sing as well, loves to recreates all-time favorites from a vast variety of genres such as HIP-HOP, OLD SCHOOL, DUB STEP and ELECTRO-HOUSE.

His major event is the "TOUR IN ASIA" where he performed at HARD ROCK HOTEL in Bali, Indonesia(2011), MARINA BAY SANDS CASINO, Singapore(2012), World Trade Center Philippines, HONGKONG at the W HOTEL for the TIESTO opening.


Last year 2013 in the Philippines where he performed in front of the 8000 people at the PICC Forum for the ADHOC ASCENDANCY(the biggest college party in the Philippines).

To continue his ASIAN TOUR he visited STARR DINEPARTYSHINE DAVAO, he introduce and promote the TOP 100 DJ's 2014 wherein his name was included.  I have the chance to meet and greet him in person along with the said International Superstar DJ's Az-T and Butch Andres.

Aaron Terpkos aka DJ Az-T

With more than 20 years of combined DJ experience and having to manage his own job, Aaron made good at his craft as he focused throughout his career on balancing his talent in music as DJ and managing his own business at the same time.



As question arises on how they started as a DJ, many things come out in my mind..."This man is more knowledgeable in doing DJ thingy..".

(C) Melissa Bertolini

A cool Dj who have lots of experience about music he played, from EDM, ELECTRO, TRAP, BASS, GLITCH etc...trying to play with turntables by scratching on it to make mixtapes of instruments the likes mixing vocal house to dirty electro to the RnB classics.  

 

with DJ Az-T

Cool music indeed from a COOL GUY name DJ Az-T. 


*Jason and Az-T are great pals. Jason meets Az-T when he accepted a gig in Australia, and that's the start of their friendship.


 





DJ Butch Andres

The First Filipino DJ to break into clubbing scene in the so-called Las Vegas of ASIA, MACAU SAR, CHINA.

(C) BUTCH ANDRES

Taking on a role as a DJ and at the same time managing Jason Dewey is a great deal of difficulty as both are Professional DJ in the course. Only with proper management and the act of being professional, I guess he can split all the heap without a trouble.

Thanks to you DJ Butch Andres in carrying the Philippine flag to the world of SCRATCHING with a heart! Way to go IDOL!

Words to ponder: REMEMBER WHERE YOU CAME FROM.

The said interview was done before the gig at STARR with Angel Abella

I hope this little information about the DJ's will gave you some insights and inspiration to those aspiring and beginner DJ's out there to practice more your scratching and do love your craft as well!

DJ Butch Andres, DJ Jason Dewey and DJ Az-T (C) Butch Andres

HarvFest is a 3 day event celebrating KADAYAWAN FESTIVAL 2014 with good food, good drinks, great friendship and a wonderful music.

For a brief period of time, a rave party is characterized as a lack of good guidance to our young generation of today but was able to change the glimpse of an alternative way of life, that everybody loves to FIGHT FOR THE RIGHT TO PARTY. Thanks to STARR DINEPARTYSHINE, MOON, CORK and BARREL, HYBRID and BLUE REEF BISTRO BAR for having this idea to put something different in a RAVE PARTY SCENE.

(C) Raymart Oyan

For the first time we want Davaoeños to experience a BAR HOPPING RAVE PARTY SCENE. A doors lead out into a place wherein there are seats and tables and a DJ stage is leaning towards the center of the event. It is the epicenter of the city bar's and this is where the action takes place.

The first kick off led by the residence DJ's of the respective organizing club bars were divided into two activities, other Dj's are inside the club playing their music while the others are making their music thingy in the center stage.






Second kick-off is AWESOME!  We have DJ XFactor (International DJ/Producer/Remixer),DJ Astrid from Vanity Club, Cebu sexiest model DJ LV of CUBANA and DJ Yancy Moncatar.

 


With a surprise guest celebrities partying with us are from ABS-CBN PINOY BIG BROTHER ALL IN Stars, Fourth and Fifth Pagotan (twin brothers of GMA actress Chariz Solomon) and Michelle Gumabao aka the SPUNKY SPIKER of Quezon City.

Third kick off (the last day) of HarvFest 2014 is a BLAST!  



We requested all the party goers who are in the bars to party outside and join the TWO DMC CHAMPION DJ M.O.D and DJ COKI.

(C) Arfel Calamba

Started by DJ Coki on stage, lot of people came out to join him.

Raving the party without the NEON and FOAM but still the PARTY LIVES ON!

(C) DJ Coki

 


Next in line is DJ M.O.D, the crowd went WET and WILDER. 

Wet maybe because they sweat too much from RAVING. 

WILD because they are all eager to dance and sing to the music as well.

 


Who said Davao doesn't know how to party? Simple as this gathering of people who are in the same mind, same heart, but with different races - that is DAVAO CITY.

It can be organized as ONE with a PARTY ATMOSPHERE. The time we celebrate the bountiful and miracles of life, to be surrounded with people who care and love us, and to see other faces and make friend with them, share stories and party with them. 

Indeed a triumph for us party goers, who break into an area of a RAVE PARTY MOVEMENT.

This event is presented by the PARTY ANIMAL EVENT PRODUCTION, CIGNAL, GEERTECH, and MAGIC 89.9.


 
In cooperation with SMART, EMPERADOR DE LUXE, 8TELCOM, COLT45, SushiDito, Chikaan, Pioneers DJ, Johnnie Walker, MOJITOS TEQUILA, and JFB CAR TRADING.
