THE MAGIC ANTHEM-THE LEGENDS OF MAGIC-

 I day I was practicing some magic one day and I decided to take a break and make this song. " Many years ago I used to be a DJ. I did many weddings in my time, but I especially loved working in the clubs. If you know what hot mixing is you appreciate the the intricacy and the knowledge of knowing BPS (Beats per Second) you have two turntables and while the other turntable is live the other is not. That's where your cuing up the other song and matching the beats to the song that's playing live.


 One day I decided to stop at this local dance club and see if I could get a Disc Jockey job. The owner said "Do you know how to mix" I said "no" To this day I really don't understand why I tried to get a DJ gig at that place when I didn't even know how to mix. I suddenly found myself hurrying home to practice on my turntables. For hours I was practicing and suddenly I got it. I was so excited. I actually called the club owner whom I just visited and said "Listen to this" I paced the phone over by the speaker and started mixing. I can't imagine what he was thinking.

 I thought I was great, but in fact it was terrible, Just terrible.  A few years latter I had the mixing down to a science. I found myself one day in a beautiful home of a famous Chicago DJ. Scott Smokin' Silz from the "Hot Mix Five" on WBMX radio. I was auditioning for a Disc Jockey job. I was waiting in his studio. He had some beautiful Technics1200's along with a high tech mixing board. He walked in plopped himself on the couch and said "Okay! lets see what you got." I was so nervous, but just started doing my think. When I was done he had this look. I thought oh well another opportunity that bombed. He said "When can you start?" It was a great feeling of achievement working for Scott. During that time I got out of the magic. I always had a struggle between the two. Magic, music, music, magic.


One day it hit me. I thought for the amount of time it takes me to drive to location, set up my DJ gear,  do a 4hour show, tear down and drive back home. I could make just as much maybe even more doing magic. That's when I decided to get back into the magic.
I have never forgotten the gift of music and being able to combine different songs together creating a wonderful feeling and making hundreds of people dance. I now use my knowledge of music in my shows and choreograph all the music, riffs sound effects into my routines. I just love customizing.


This song "THE MAGIC ANTHM"-"THE LEGENDS OF MAGIC" was made in one week. I recorded it in my kitchen where I have a temporary desk because my office is being relocated.
I know thought it would be cool to write a song that honors all the magicians who dedicated there life to magic.
