DJ Micro

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

DJ Micro is an American trance disc jockey. He relentlessly toured the States and recording mix albums for Moonshine to boost his popularity. His ascendance began on the East Coast, where in 1991 Micro helped form the Caffeine Records collective in New York. Caffeine began as a weekly club night, and started building a brand. Micro spun at many of Caffeine's parties, specializing in acid breakbeat. He recorded two mix albums for Roadrunner in the late '90s — Coast to Coast (1997) and Caffeine: The Natural Stimulant (1998) — and later hooked up with Moonshine in 1998. \ Micro's first release for Moonshine, Micro-Tech Mix (1998), would be followed by a large succession of mix albums, usually one released annually.

Micro slightly changed his style with each album and moved toward trance without forsaking his breakbeat roots. By the end of the '90s, he had become one of the most popular DJs on the East Coast, considered in the same class of superstar DJs as Frankie Bones and Scott Henry. Like his superstar peers, Micro toured often, particularly on the East Coast.
