DJ Melee Max
DJ
My name is Jay.Q ,but when I am behind the turntables my name is Melee Max.My love for electronic music started back in 2008 when I was still shuffling at lunch time. I started DJing around 2009, but didn't get my first turntables until 2011. Since then I have been DJing at parties and events across the DFW area, and even started producing my own music. My favorite DJ once said "if you have never lost it on the dance floor; you can never find it behind the turntables." I have been living by those words ever since. Bringing the best in electronic from trance to house to even a little dub step!
