Bio

brandonboard2

DJ Skwint began DJing in 1998 due to his love for Hip Hop music and the desire to be involved in the culture. Within five years Skwint had competed in several national finals competitions including being crowned Scribble Jam Champion, DMC US Supremacy Runner up as well as two DMC US Finals appearances. Skwint’s stint as a battle DJ landed him in articles by major newspapers such as the Washington Post, magazines such as InnerLoop, a DC based magazine covering club culture, as well as TV appearances on stations such as Fox Sportsnet where Skwint emerged victorious at the Summerfest DJ Battle. In 2003 during his first DMC US finals appearance, Skwint was honored to be added as a member of the Platter Pirates, a world famous DJ crew with several national and world champions of which Skwint was influenced and inspired by growing up.

In addition to Skwints battle accomplishments, Skwint is a renowned party rocker performing in many clubs across the midwest and west coast. Skwint’s unique talent has landed him high profile gigs such as being the Earthdance 2008 mainstage DJ as well as shows with acts like Slick Rick, Rahzel, Ja Rule, Mountain Brothers, Beatjunkies, Atmosphere, Brother Ali, Eydea and Abilities, Cannibol Ox, Murs, DJ Vadim and many others. Skwint has much more to offer than your regular hip-hop mix DJ. With his eclectic interest in many genres of music including hip-hop, funk, soul, jazz, reggae, pop, electro house, world and many others, Skwint brings a unique mix of smooth blends and his nationally ranked scratching ability. DJ Skwint has recently joined forces with Tevya Jones aka Wisdom and is looking forward to performing in the near future.
