An Interview with DJ Icey

dj icey How did you get started in the electronic music scene?
Got started collecting records and making Mix tapes for my Surfing buddies at New Smryna Beach inlet in Florida, where I hung out at, that led to my first proper gig, as I had a huge collection of 12" singles of various genres. I set up some Pawn shop/ Garage Sale belt driven turntables and a $25 Radio SHack Mixer on a Pool Tableat a DIve Bar.


You are known as the "King of Funky Breaks", what is it about this genre that you really love?
I don't consider my self the King of Anything, I don't give a fuck about labels and all that, a magazine in 99 came up with that term and It stuck, and my first proper released mix cd was called The Funky Breaks. I do love Breaks though, very much.
