DJ AM

Friday, August 28th, 2009, the DJ community lost one of it's own. DJ AM, one of the most recognized DJs in North America was found dead in New York City. I never got the opportunity to see DJ AM perform live (and when I say perform, I mean it since he really put on a show during his sets) and I think it's something that I'll always regret.

I feel like AM was a huge inspiration to all djs across the world. He was the guy that really put DJing into the entertainment/media spotlight. I think he definitely changed the DJ industry whether for better, or for worse.

There's not much more I can say about AM since I never had the fortunate chance to meet him, but I can definitely say that he was a true inspiration and model for my DJ goals and aspirations.

R.I.P. DJ AM, we'll forever keep the records spinning in your memory...
