In 1994 I was playing Metromedia and 1997 I moved to the United States and started my international experience with Katarock Sound. Killaface sound was found in the month of august 2001 in Milwaukee then moved to Chicago 2003.

Consist of hardcore juggling style, meaning dubplates mixed with regulars tunes more geared towards dancehall and foundation music.

What plans do you have for your sound in the near future and what are the real long-term plans for it?
In the fall of 2009 we will be traveling to Italy, for our first time in Europe. Our long-term plan is to be one of the best Sound Systems of this generation and grow toward being an International Sound, traveling from country to country. We want to be a household name in the industry. Also, starting our record label and productions…setting a mark for generations to come.
