“Teeko is the funkiest most soulful turntablist I have ever seen...from the cuts to the records he chooses...I had the opportunity to hang & DJ with him in the bay area...it was definitely my pleasure” -
Dj Jazzy Jeff “My boy Teeko, man he got style...he ain't weeko, he’ll make you smile!" –
Dj Qbert “DJ Teeko is the Bay Area's newest turntable superstar.... actually he has been for about three years now since he used to spell his name 'Tico'...but only now most people are starting to catch up with the turntable master manipulator (thanks to battles, club gigs, incredible performances and appearances on albums such as BOMB's Return of the DJ 5) Teeko is fuckin amazing and a pleasure to watch him practice his art...not only can he effortlessly flip some mind-boggling tricks on the decks but he can also rock any kind of party with his deep crates, broad musical knowledge, and uncanny ear for rhythm and beats....Teeko is one of the few superstar DJs in my opinion” -
BillyJam (HipHopSlam) A Brief History: In the 90’s Teeko got his start with a legendary mobile dj crew, Divide and Conquer (DAC). Doing parties in many of California’s premier venues. Keeping himself busy as a party rocking dj, he would do gigs with DAC every weekend for nearly three years. Through the course of this period he entered a few dj battles and appeared as a regular guest on the Wild94.9 Hip Hop Chop Shop. He then established himself as a resident dj at a few of the bay area’s hot spots, continuing to rock dance-floors with funk and excitement. All the while, Teeko was refining his craft as a scratch musician/producer, generating ideas that would spawn an outbreak of originality and style. Currently, Teeko is a member of San Francisco’s 4onefunk, along with his friends and incredible talents AlesOne, Bcause, and Mr.B. The group has been dominating the scene, doing tours, clubs, radio, mixtapes, production, and dj competitions. From winning three of the four categories (Teams, Scratching, Advancement Class) in the ITF 2003/4 USA Championship, the crew has made a huge impact on the national dj scene! Taking their skills worldwide as they rocked Germany in the ITF World Championships aired on MTV all across Europe. Teeko has been known to dazzle the crowd with the musicality and originality that most djs lack.
