DJ Tekben

[edit] Introduction

DJ Tekben (born Brendon Alexander Yusupov; February 21, 1995; in Indianapolis Indiana) is a 12-year-old trance, techno, house, and dance music bedroom DJ and producer who lives in Carmel, Indiana.[1]

He has been DJing since early 2006, creating several mixtapes of other artists music. In early 2007, he began producing his own music. His songs' genres range from trance and techno, to dance and house music.


[edit] Biography

General
 DJ Tekben grew up in the northern-central Indianapolis area until mid 2004. In early 2005, he moved up a little more north to Carmel, Indiana; a suburban town and neighborhood.[2] He's currently 12, about to turn 13 this February. He's of the Jewish religion (but celebrates most holidays), so he will also be having his bar-mitzvah (the Jewish ceremony of becoming a man[3]) this February. [4]

Where the Interest for the Music Came From
His interest in the music had begun since the early age of 7. He quotes that his mother is the one who got him into the techno/trance genre and scene.[5]

"I'd have to say the reason why I even became interested in this type of music, is because of my mom. I can remember all the times in the car when we'd be jammin out to some really really loud Paul van Dyk or Tiesto. My music taste has come from her, and I thank her for it, because I can honeslty say, theres no other music than techno music."
DJ Tekben[6]

But that just started the interest. Something else started the action.

How it all Began
He writes in his blog, that it all started with a visit to Best Buy. If he didn't go with his grandfather that day, he might have never began to mix and create music, or might have at least started much later. He writes that his grandfather had purchased a CD Labeler System, and with it, included a free version of his "first music mixing software" called Ejay Mixstation. After learning to mix as a DJ and studying up on all the artists and techno cultures and styles, he bought music creation software. After about a year or two, he now produces and mixes good listenable trance music.
