Quiet as kept, this humble dude is one of the West Coast's elite, throwing game-changing events with his Massive Selector brethren and spinning all over the place with the hottest selections. if you ever catch him on the decks, you'll never hear the same thing twice -- from hip-hop, rock, funk, soul, disco, broken beat, latin, house, reggae, dub, 80's, he plays everything under the sun, and plays it well. check out PROOF at his monthly, FUTURECLASSIC, dedicated to futuristic fantastics every first friday of the month at Poleng Lounge in San Francsico. Proof, aka Marky Enriquez was born and raised in the safe and sunny streets of San Mateo, California . He grew up listening to everything from Michael Jackson, Madonna, The Bangles, Air Supply, Twisted Sister, Lionel Richie, Journey, and even Falco, but his life changed when he first saw the heard/saw the video for Rockit by the legendary Herbie Hancock. proof traded in his Twisted Sister shirt for some shell toes sneakers, began collecting Hip-Hop records and took every opportunity to get busy on his parents' belt driven turntable. It wasn't until the early 90's that he got his own set of turntables and got into the mobile dj scene that was blowing up in San Francisco . After graduating from St. Ignatius High School in San Francisco in ‘94, proof went on to Cal Poly San Luis Obispo in the Central Coast . There, proof was introduced to funk music by a friend who was playing a James Brown record and he fell in love with the raw form of music. From then on, proof began collecting funk records in search of that “perfect beat.” This love for funk eventually led to hosting the WEFUNK SHOW on 91.3FM KCPR, a college radio show dedicated to classic soul, funk, and original breaks. After graduating from Cal Poly in 2000, proof continued his dedication to funk music by hooking up with some friends to throw a weekly joint called Soul in the Hole at the Claran Lounge in Santa Clara . Soul in the Hole attracted b-boys, b-girls, hip-hop heads, and music lovers from all over the Bay Area in search for a positive space to dance to deep funk and original breaks. In 2001, proof hooked up with some old college friends who were just starting Massive Selector. proof did a guest spot for MS at the infamous Rawhide one night, and he's been spinning with the crew ever since. Today, proof is busy organizing and promoting events for Massive Selector as well as playing at various spots in the Bay Area. On the decks, his musical tastes range from hip-hop, rock, funk, soul, disco, broken beat, latin, house, dub, 80's and everything under the su n. Making mixes for his friends and exposing folks to good music is what he enjoys most about DJing. WEBSITE: http://www.massiveselector.com MYSPACE: http://www.myspace.com/toshirotakashi Latinze
