:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Jon is an energetic party kid who grew up in the ] ] Area and was primarily exposed to ] and urban underground culture through friends and ] the largest urban ] south of ]. Growing up in a ] with kids who were mostly involved in the ] community, he began to meet kids involved in the DC ]. It would be these Graf kids who would later introduce Jon to the underground party culture.

:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Attending his first warehouse party around late 1992 he immediately gained an interest in the early DC ] culture and started attending as many ] events as possible. It was at this time he first heard ], while it was not his preferred style of music it did get him to listen to more of the ] sound. It was not until sometime in the summer of ], at a party in southern ], that he first heard ]. The banging ] and the soaring ]s had him hooked.

:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;By the time Jon was in ] he was sneaking out at least one night a week to hit up a party. Jon gained a strong interest in the ] ] ] through his next door neighbor Luchinvar while living in ]. Luchi's father Lloyd was a former ] in ] and would play his music proudly whenever the chance arose.

:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;It was around the ] of ] that Jon with his family and several boxes of stuff moved to ]. Being put in a town he had only visited on ] put an end to his regular partying. It was not until he met several of the DJs from ] (] Radio) that he first found out about the local Maine scene. However, the parties he attended in Maine bore little resemblance to the scene he was used to; being more ] oriented, rather than ], ] and ] oriented.

:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;While vacationing in ] in ], he walked into a three story ] and picked up his first hardcore ] the three CD '''' set mixed by ]; this began his ] to ] hardcore ]. Upon his return to the ] he moved to northern ].

:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The parties he attended in ] bore little resemblance to the scene he was used to. It was not until a party in ] of ] called "] ]" that he first saw some of the various New England Hardcore DJ's play the tunes he knew and loved that he had not heard played out since his move.

:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The following year in the early spring of ], he went to the UK on vacation. Visiting well known record shops like ], ], and , it is no wonder he returned home with two large bags full of hardcore vinyl and an empty ]. Sadly Elite Records is . After returning home he began to spin. Spending long hours as frequently as he could, he began to grasp the concept of ] and ]. A few years later and quite a bit ]er, he has amassed enough vinyl to make it impossible to find what he wants when he needs it...

==MY ADMITTED BIASES==
<div style="margin-right: 22px; text-align: justify;">
:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I contribute some of the time with ] and the rest using ], but always with ]. I would consider my skill level with ] and ] advanced, but my ] skills are only at the beginner level. I do have a small programming background in, ], ], and ]. I am an ] zealot, ] hardware has died on me too frequently. I am currently running a dual ] ] system (2.0Ghz stock) each is ] to 3.2Ghz with 4GB of ] ] (PC-3200 ECC). Fortunately most of my spare cycles are going to the ] (]) project. Although ] is a nice software package it in no way even comes close to the level of flexibility that ] has. As such all my image editing is done in Photoshop. I do all of my audio recording using Sony's ]. As a professional DJ most of my audio editing is done with records on my turntables, however they never have enough ] to satisfy me.

:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Politically i'm a ] ] (I'm categorized as a ] but i'm not entirely sure I agree with that). I usually tend to vote for the ] (so according to most of you I'm probably going to Hell). Unfortunately ] is an idiot, but the thought of ] as ] was even worse. I think my cat has a higher IQ than either of them. But generally as far as politics go, I don't really care who you vote for as long as you actually ]. Issue wise, I support the legalization of cannabis, closing the US borders along with restricting immigration (not entirely, but its a point I'd be happy to discuss), repealing blue laws (what goes on in your house is your business). I support lowering the drinking age back to 18 (if you can smoke, vote, and die for your country at 18 you should be able to have a damn beer). I tend to lean towards the pro-life side of the abortion issue, but as I am not capable of becoming pregnant, its really none of my business. I am a member of the ], the ], and the ] and support the majority of their agendas. I have donated money to ] even though half the time I completely disagree with their agenda. It is sadly an organization that is still needed as ] is still rampant in the United States.

:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I root for the ] or anyone beating the ] (]). I also root for the ] (my old home team) and the ] (I live in New England, I don't really have a choice here). Other than that I don't really watch sports. I used to play football, but injured both my knees shortly before going to college, ruining my chances at playing ] ball. So now I just ] and watch the games.
