Currently residing in Atlanta, Georgia and coming from what many consider a very trying time in "music" today, he tries to insert some variety, some difference. Business and art are diametrically opposed forces and music has become a business. DJ 1derful attempts to bring the art, the expression to anyone who will listen. With a lifelong love of music, 1derful has chose mixing underground music as his instrument of musical expression.

The Mission is to be a convenyor of music regardless of the genre. With this in mind, 1derful's sets feature soulful sounds to satisfy the both radio listeners and those who delve deeper into the obscure and the underground. 1derful presents sounds and spins down and up-tempo soulful and deep house, classic and current hip-hop and R & B, classics and neo-soul, acid jazz and rare grooves all with 1derful's personal twist.

It is through his desire to showcase the music he loves, he creates mixes in the hope to bring to the forefront unique and talented artists that are often overlooked and/or lesser known by mainstream audiences. He is, indeed, dedicated in helping artists perfect, produce, and succeed effectively in order to share their gift with the world.

It is his dream and hope to continue to spin and create mixes everyone enjoys. As his style evolves he hopes to eventually create his own remixes following the footsteps of his favorite DJ's. He also would love to create a 24-7 radio station to create an avenue of the music he loves.

Born in dusty streets of Soweto in South African. My music career started with Passion that fuelled me to HOUSE My Mom is a big jazz Lover and though I was into Jazz It was not the only music i fell in love with I was inspired by the likes of Kenny Edmonds and so on. For me music knows no racial barriers. It’s purely music there is no white, blue grey or black music.

Currently a Process improvement manager and a Full time DJ. I am also doing Guitar and (Drums) Djembe lessons. I love the Guitar and Drums it brings my Soul out. Also started an entertainment website called www.umkhaba.co.za Together with www.chilspot.co.za The reason behind the two was to enhance the culture of entertainment As diverse and time consuming as it is. It’s a world outside our ties and suits That we are able to explore and bring out the rhythm within ourselves.

I am nobody and love it that way, my passion in music keeps growing on daily basis. I cannot tell U where it will stop but I certainly know it will live forever.

My Quote for daily life is. “Live life as if you were making a mark it’s up to you how you want your mark Good or Bad”

My interest for music started when I was about 12. Someone gave me an old tape recorder. I rigged it to our home stereo to record music off the radio. I remember being bothered by the commercials so I started editing them out using the pause function. It started with general "top 40" tracks, but soon moved to soul and "disco". The DJ's I remember on the radio were Shep Pettibone, DJ Animal and the legend Tony Humphries.

In 1985 I decided to make Music a bigger part of my life and attended Center For the Media Arts, graduating with a Certificate in Recording Engineering. Soon after, I had my first internship @ Chelsea Recording on 42nd St, which was subsequently bought by the Hit Factory Studio. I worked @ Clinton Recording in Manhattan and Bioya Recording in Paterson NJ, where I recorded my first record with vocalist Charles Spann from Newark. Fast forward to 1989, my son was born and I had to start making a serious living, so music took a back seat and became a hobby again. Started gigging again in 1995 and have been back into it since.

Music has touched my spirit and gotten me through many trials and tribulations in my life including the loss of my daughter Nina. It has always been there to help me escape many difficulties I was going through and touched my soul where nothing else has. These feelings thoughts and experiences are my motivation for starting this site. I hope you can appreciate it as much as I do. Please join us and help us build our Musical Nirvana together.
