about supreme...
Yes, I am “Supreme” from the Sharpshooters and Conception Records. Your favorite dj’s favorite dj. I have spent more than half my life playing and digging for records. I have handed out flyers personally through rain, sleet and snow. Mr. Supreme is music personified. It is a morning, noon, and night time affair for this world-class DJ, recording artist, producer, record collector, businessman, and label-owner. Coming straight out of Seattle, Preme is known around the globe: London, New York, Miami, Los Angeles, Tokyo, and all points in between. With his ear to the streets he spreads a musical message over the Internet, television, radio, and print media. Initially bursting into the spotlight with his first record in a long line of releases he began producing records every month, quickly making a name for himself not only in his hometown of Seattle but nationally and internationally as well. His songs have been featured on many releases globally and have been released on high profile labels such as Sony, Wea, Om, Hed Kandy, Ubiquity, Instinct-Shadow, Conception, Light in the Attic and Eightball, along side artist such as The Roots, The Brand New Heavies, A Tribe Called Quest, Blackalicious and DJ Shadow. Mr. Supreme has vast knowledge of music including many different and popular genres whether it’s Disco, House, Hip Hop, Soul, Funk or Rock. When playing live he pulls out his arsenal spanning decades and genres, specializing in rare grooves and party classics from his vault. He holds a personal record collection of over 50,000 pieces and stays in constant demand.
