How I Became A Radio DJ -
Disc Jockey
- A person who plays, and sometimes mixes, recorded music at nightclubs, dances, parties, or some other social event; and/or as a backup musician for spoken word, or hip hop performers.
- A person who conducts a radio program of recorded music combined with talk, news, commercials, weather, etc.
My "career" as a DJ started when I was 13 years old... being the one who already had a little collection of vinyl at home. It was my dad's, but nobody cared about that as long it was not classical (you'll get later on why). It was just the sound we needed to start our own discotheque in the basement of the local youth centre.
Since then I passed most stages of a disc jockey and finished as a private party and wedding "crasher", which made always some good money! When I turned 40 I stopped DJ-ing for the fun in my Pub and Hotel took me enough time out of my life.
But - Once A DJ, Always A DJ! and that's a fact...

Now just the other day I found out about the Music-bots FredBoat and Rhythm on discord... Woohoo man, that was just the thing for an Oldie like me. 😎😎😎 I took me not much time to have it figured out, just where to try?! Wait, didn't I just see this radio station on canna-curate?
Discords Canna-Curate open, GHRO channel joined... and let's go! This was fun. I played from YT, soundcloud and tried everything possible until... until I got this message from 🎼GRiMM🎶GHRO🎶CANNA🎶KINGS asking how come that I have the DJ "permission" or who gave me access to play music on the GHRO-voice channel?
😎 "No one" was my answer 'cause "it just worked when I tried." Long story short, Grimm gave me the host/dj role and invited me officially to make some noise on the radio. Since I'm at UTC+1, nobody actually realized my "session". Yeah, even in America they sleep. Hehehe...
Anyway, so now I pass some music over there when "nobody" is around and I'm in my workshop. The hippie in me likes what's going on @ canna and the shows I listened to where informative fun with some excellent music. You definitely should check out their GHRO Radio Schedule and then just listen in.
My style?! Now that's a hard question. Brought up with classical music, because that was my dad's main collection, I kind of listen to everything, I love "world music fusion" in all its diversity and with enough groove I'm right away addicted.
My heart is RockNRoll, my soul is Jazz, my head is Zappanoid, so you'll find all kind of different strange mixture in "my" music. And since nobody is listening in, it's no problem for me to play whatever suits me best that moment... 😎 😁 and Grimm is okay with Strange!
But may it's you who's changing that, it would be a pleasure?! Anyway, hopefully you pass by when I'm around and online... which then will be around 9am to 5pm UTC!
Peace Love and Musicality
