DJ DUANE (Alluv Recordings - San Diego, Ca) Biography<BR>
<BR>
At the age of 24, Duane has already established himself as a household name on the West Coast. His unique brand of Deep, sexy tech with a noticeable twist of funk and stomp has turned heads from all over for quite some time now.<BR>
Duane is a veteran DJ of 9 years. At only 24, Duane has been listening and in love with House Music since his early teens. Rather than phasing through periods of techno or drum & bass appreciation, the roots of his love for House truly began right there at the heart and soul of his first House Music experience, at age 14. Just a week after his first exposure to this House Music, Duane's passion began and he found himself at his local record shop digging in the crates pulling deep gems to take home for himself. Soon after you could guarantee to find Duane hanging out behind the decks watching, talking, and learning from legends like Doc Martin, Steve Loria, & Mark E. Quark. <BR>
Over the next few years Duane found himself DJing and throwing local raves and clubs in and around Southern California. His immense popularity both as a talented young DJ & Promoter helped him find his way into the 21 + circuit, and by his 18th Birthday Duane was rocking wall to-wall, packed 21+ clubs found in the heart of Downtown San Diego, as well as Los Angeles, Las Vegas and San Francisco.<BR>
Throughout the last six years Duane's passion for House Music has matured immensely. Now with the extremely successful launch of his own label, Alluv Recordings, Duane is focusing on the production aspect of the music. <BR>
"Alluv Recordings is an arena for artistic, emotional, and musical release, not only for myself, but for any artist who is pushing the envelope in the growth of House Music", says Duane. "We always need to have a forward progression in everything we do - Love, peace, music, human values, anything. Hence the name Alluv, meaning love for all things……Especially progression in House Music."<BR>
