Dirt Assasinz DJ Roster 2011
DJ YeLLo, a.k.a Joseph Leason, was born on Dec. 14th 1980 in Las Vegas Nevada. While attending Dobson High School he had a vision, a feeling that he was going to do something and be something spectacular. As the photo editor the school newspaper and the yearbook, he learned how to deal with the everyday stress of a deadline. This also helped fuel his artistic abilities. Along with winning many awards in photography, he was the school DJ, playing every Friday afternoon at lunch for everyone. He took this opportunity to introduce electronic music to people that would not normally hear it in 1997. Thru out all of 97’and 98’, he played at various house parties and other gatherings including raves and clubs, spinning everything from Hip Hop to Trip Hop to Drum & Bass. In 1999, he met a DJ while working in a Radio Shack named Dj Steel a.k.a Kris Chupp. Steel showed Joseph how to program and how to give the crowd what they wanted! Throughout 99’to 2000, however, Kris Steel and Joseph Leason played all the major clubs and events around the state, including: 411, Trinity, Peppermint Disco, Freedom, and Andersons Fifth Estate for 2 years. Kris Steel and Joseph Leason then rocked it on the House Nation Show (103.9) every Friday night for 4 months straight. In 2001, Joseph Leason went to work for Off The Record (Record Store) in Mesa as the web designer and then went to London West Records in Tempe. There he went on to design and build their website in the later half of 2001. 2002 however has been the most eventful year so far for Joseph. He started the year by going to Europe to study music and while in England, he frequented many record stores to find out what it took to become a great DJ as well as acquiring many extremely sought after records. While at 3 Beat Records in Liverpool, Joseph had a talk with some of the biggest producers in the UK: Sange from Defected, and Steve Parry from 3 Beat records and Fluid recordings. When he returned home, he had gained a world of knowledge and the desire to become a legend.
