DJ RahBee is the Rock Camp Productions Resident DJ as well as a production partner with The Pink Moon Festival. His unique style and incredible showmanship has kept dancers throughout Appalachia and beyond raging for over 16 years!
He first got into the industry listening to Herbie Hancock's Rockit with DJ Grand Wizard Theadore, Run DMC and Slick Rick/Dougie Fresh. RahBee explains, "what they were doing in the early '80s was revolutionary and unheard of. It was incredibly cutting edge music at that time." He was hooked, and continues his journey in the music industry today. His music is ever evolving and progressing, as electronic music is ever evolving and progressing, with new technology and exciting opportunities.
No matter what he's playing, RahBee's "old school" style of icorporating turntablism with cutting edge music has a powerful effect.. We've all been to that show where it appears all the DJ is doing is pressing play on an iPod....not DJ RahBee! Every show is alive, and RahBee by no means stands there pressing buttons. On the contrary RahBee caresses the vinyl like you would a beautiful woman, manually manipulating every sound that booms out of the speakers and through our bodies. He produces jaw dropping mixes, and articulates every track masterfully. New music constantly flows from his fingers before anyone else has a chance to play or even hear it anywhere else.
DJ RahBee has appeared with a wildly impressive roster of artists throughout his career; Griz, Freddy Todd, iLL So Naj, EOTO, Papadosio, and members of The Glitch Mob, just to name the slightest cross section. Some highlights RahBee mentioned from his career include opening up for EOTO at the NorVa in VA Beach for the Official Hulaween After-party in 2010, performing at Rootwire Music Festval in 2011, not to mention opening for Ooah of the Glitch Mob.
DJ RahBee is currently booked for the Happiness & Harmony Festival, this weekend, as well as multiple dates and festies throughout the summer (dates below). RahBee also holds a weekly live slot on the Internet radio station The Lost Art, every Wednesday from 12-2pm.
Be sure to check out and "like" his Facebook page, and while you're at it...tune into his SoundCloud for some great mixes. I promise, you won't be able to stay in your seat...DJ RahBee brings the party anytime, anywhere.
