YawS career as a dj started in 1998, when he was stationed at military base approximatly fourty five minutes north of Los Angeles. The place was called the Antelope Valley, the town was called Lancaster to be exact. It all began when YawS discovered his first West Coast rave. YawS was quickly addicted to the rave movement and the culture that surrounded it. After his long awaited departure from the military, he found a house in the near by area and continued to pursue his interests as a trance dj. Shortly after settling in, YawS met a junglist named Maestro and that would be the introduction to the world of Junglism. Maestro introduced YawS to a local crew of junglists called the Jungle Junkies. Shortly after meeting the two founders of the Jungle Junkies (Kid B and Delerious) they befriended YawS and started to invite him to some private sessions. As YawS was learning the jungle stylee the Jungle Junkies continued to throw underground events and YawS was usually one of the opening acts. YawS loved to play jungle but was not a junglist, so his interests began to wander and that is how he fell in love with funky newskool breaks. While YawS continued to play with the Jungle Junkies he started his own crew called LifeLine Recordings. YawS began to focus mostly on breaks and soon after met his new partner in crime. After a bit of training the new partner began to mix like YawS so they started to work on performing as a 2x4. (two djs and four turntables) The two djs were a good match but, do to different interests they parted ways. Soon after, YawS decided to move his family back to his hometown....Austin,TX. 

Over the last three years YawS has been working hard to become one of the fastest rising djs in the Central Texas area. With his signature mixture of Breakbeat, Electro, and Drum and Bass sounds he sets tha decks on fire, using his precise mixing and scratching abilities. This ten year veteran has made many friends along the way and has graced the stage with artists such as Aphrodite, Baby Anne, DJ ICEY, Cereal Killas Kelly Reverb, and Simply Jeff. Currently YawS is holding down a weekly called 3RD BASS THURSDAYS @ Black and Tan in Austin,TX...While djing on a weekly basis YawS attends and DJs Massive Underground events on the weekend in the Central Texas area. YawS continually supports the scene around him and everyone involved, by always treating people with PLUR and mainly RESPEKT. While striving for his best as a dj he has finally entered into the producer arena. With a few tracks in tha works it should be no time before you can get your hands on some of his fresh sounds. Stay tuned for more info as it unfolds.
