Even with 20 years of DJing experience, Mr. Choc is still one of the most humble DJ’s in the industry. Having established himself as one of the top four radio mixers in the nation, Choc has come quite a way from his days on the radio in Bakersfield, alongside the now world famous DJ C-Minus.

When Choc’s not sleeping, he’s without a doubt DJing, either in the studio, on stage, on the radio, or in a classroom. Mr. Choc has worked with some of the biggest and hottest artists, including Funkmaster Flex, Talib Kweli, Mos Def, Kanye West, LL Cool J, Oukast, Nas, KRS-1, Aaliyah, 112, Tribe Called Quest, and Common. Though Choc can rock any club, he is one of the most sought after DJs for VIP parties like Alicia Keys’ Album Release Party, Jamie Foxx’s Super Bowl Party, and Ja Rule’s Murder Inc. Album Release Party at the Playboy Mansion, to name a few. Choc even toured with 50 Cent while promoting his first album.

Though Choc has traveled all over the world – Brazil, Canada, Europe, and Australia to name a few highlights – he feels most at home teaching his craft to up and coming DJs. “Sometimes it feels like I’m opening up my book of secrets, and letting people into my world,” says Choc when describing what it’s like being one of the Director at the Los Angeles Scratch DJ Academy (www.scratch.com). You can also catch Mr. Choc mixing live online and XM Radio: Mondays @ 7pm – 9pm PST – Soul Assassins Radio – The West Wing | Shade 45 – XM66 Thursdays @ 8pm PST – Soul Assassins Radio w/ DJ Muggs of Cypress Hill on www.breal.tv

Love is the message. Join us as we celebrate the birthday of Mr. Choc and all Pisces. Remember…experience is everything. So tell a friend to tell a friend. We encourage you to come through and see what The Foundation is all about. Have a few drinks. Make some new friends and have a good time.

Limited Discounted Guest List Available ($5 Before 11pm w/ RSVP) – somfoundationsf@gmail.com

Travis TK Disko recently moved to LA from San Francisco. Travis hails from the notorious ‘Liquid’ days in the late nineties before it became PINK in SF and promotes several parties such as ‘The Gun Club’, ‘The Red Dot’ and Hot Biscuit in LA as well as collaborates with The 40 Thieves. Drunk & Diskonnected February 27th at SOM 2925 16th Street btw Mission and Sth. Van Ness.
