I had my share of gigs here and there but my love for turntablism was in the scratching and technical aspect and not for the sole purpose of playing music for the party. The art of the mash-up stemming from DJ Spinbad to DJ AM caught my attention and renewed my love for DJing. DJ AM was and will continue to be one of the most influential DJs of the modern era. I never really understood why when an artist dies, their fans are heart broken. But when I heard the news about AM, I was devastated! I heard reports while I was in New York about 2 hours after his death. Days after his death, I found out the location of his SoHo apartment. I walked past the front door and saw pictures and flowers all dedicated to Adam. I placed one of my first record cartridges in front of his apartment to show how AM influenced me to go from a DJ that just played music to a DJ that PLAYED WITH the music and made everyone's night special.
