Damn THEO PARRISH!!!!  There is someone I can't miss!!!!  Taking it supa' 
deep!!!!!! For those who don't know, here is a little somethin' somethin' 
for you cats......

"Love of the music should be the driving force of any producer, performer or 
DJ. Everything else stems from that core, that love. With that love, 
sampling can become a tribute; An expansion on ideas long forgotten, 
reconstruction, collage. Using the same understanding openly and 
respectfully can turn DJing into a spiritual participation. It can turn a 
few hours of selection into essential history; Necessary listening through 
movement." This personal philosophy gives shape and direction to the 
distinctive sounds that are created by Theo Parrish.

Theo Parrish was born in Washington, DC in 1972 and raised in Chicago, IL 
where his passion for music developed. Miles Davis, Stevie Wonder, Jimi 
Hendrix, Nina Simone, Bob Marley as well as his uncle, jazz musician Dexter 
Sims, all had strong influences on Theo's early musical life. Chicago's 
radio influences and house artists such as Ron Hardy, Larry Heard, Lil' 
Louis, Farley Jackmaster Funk, Gene Hunt, Mike Dunn, Frankie Knuckles, 
Walter "Get Down" Brown and Andrew Hatchett helped to spawn Mr. Parrish's 
early career. He began spinning and producing tracks in 1986 at the age of 
thirteen.

After graduating from the Academy for the Artist, he received a scholarship 
to the Kansas City Art Institute where his interest in music was taken to a 
new level through his study of sculpture. In 1994, he received a Bachelor of 
Fine Arts degree from KCAI with a concentration of Sound Sculpture, a form 
of orchestration using live generating devices. While in KC, Theo continued 
to impact and be impacted by dance music helping bring a dormant underground 
scene to life.

In 1994, Theo moved to Detroit where he became heavily involved in the 
underground music scene. Producing music and delivering his unique and 
dynamic sets in venues throughout Detroit and surrounding areas as well as 
abroad. He has gained attention and respect of DJs, producers, listeners and 
dancers worldwide.
