On tonight's show we had LA's undergrounds very own Petro One.
(please excuse my voice I was sick)
Inspired by drums and tribal beats PETRO felt a calling to become what he had admired for so long. Today, after a lot of dedicated work and 14 years perfecting his craft, PETRO ONE has long graduated from the dance floor to the Dj booth.
In 1989 "PETRO ONE" was a name that was bestowed onto him, it's meaning, a testament to his love for music and the people with whom he shared it with like a family. Today when ever he stands behind the decks, those on the dance floor know that PETRO ONE isn't just a name, it's a title he earned.
Every time he plays, wether in a packed out club or just for his friends PETRO always plays keeping what he cherishes most in mind. His family. PETRO ONE plays with a sense of energy that extends itself past the walls of the night club and is still felt well after the last record was played . This comes from the obligation he feels to contribute and give back to that which has given to him, so much. And inspired him not just to participate, but to give back to the scene by promoting his own parties & providing sound and lighting for many first class events.
ECOSYSTEMS is the name of his SOUND, LIGHTING & PRODUCTION company. Bulletproof, Spirits of Love, Spinal Tap, Shrooms are some of the legendary one off's that PETRO has thrown , dating back to 1992. Not to mention his highly respected after hours party called "IMAGINATION" which ran bi - monthly from 1996-1998. (named most influential event/party by XLR8R magazine in 1996) PETRO ONE quickly earned a loyal following which resulted in residencies at both EVOLUTION & L.A.'s longest running Saturday night underground after hours club called "INSOMNIA" and his newest residencie at the Bassment after hours .
He has had the privilege to opening slots for such major musical influences as Steve Lawler, Nick Warren, Sandra Collins, Barry Jamieson (aka Evolution)on Fluid recordings,Taylor, Kazell , Troy Roberts, Mark Lewis, Angel Alanis, Chris Cowie, Kasey Taylor, and Frankie Bones. His passion continues to resonate within his increasing performances throughout the L.A. area , and these benefits are felt most directly by those lucky souls driven to the dance floor.
