A DJ should only see two kinds of music. Good music and bad music. A DJ's job is to play good music.

International Mix Artist
Pri yon Joni
Composing and performing music since he could walk and talk, and behind one's and two's since he was 11 years old, Pri yon Joni (formerly known as DJ D-Tec) has been a cultivated blend of the advances of the DJ world along with the production/remix attributes of dance music; marking over 15 years as a DJ under his belt at only the age of 26 by 2009. As a DJ, he is the accumulation of the techniques and principles of a a Hip Hop turntablist, supplimented with the energy of dance music, and production skills that focus on the dancefloor. It's a rare characteristic to find a DJ that can scratch, juggle, and remix live while being able to produce and perform dance music as well. There are no limits or specifications to his sets. To Pri yon Joni, he only see's music two ways, "good music or bad music. A DJ's job is to play good music."
Currently active with electronic dance music and teasing hints of Hip Hop into dance music, Pri yon Joni has expanded his performances with live vocalists, setting his DJ sets beyond your typical club night where production beyond the decks is showcased to its best. Unlike your typical commercial DJ, yon Joni sets out as a music evangalist, introducing and experimenting new flavors to his mix, in a constant quest to play that next floor banging track; before it is even known to the people. "Why should people come to your club," he says, "if you play what everybody else plays. Today's iPOD's can do that."
A turntablist at heart, Pri yon Joni goes beyond the mix giving a show of trickery truly using the decks as musical instruments. In today’s digital world, he has expanded from the traditional turntables and untilizes the technology of Pioneer CDJ’s as his tool’s to remix and create music live. Now along with Ableton Live, yon Joni has taken a step up utilizing live electronics including live synthesizers to his mix.
In 2006 after ending his second residency at De'Fusion Lounge in Warren, Michigan, Pri yon Joni began a project crew of female DJ's, known today as the Sonic Crstals. By 2007, the Crystals have opened for several world famous DJ's including JJ Flores, MC Flipside, and DJ Victor R. The Crystals have expanded beyond Detroit from Minneapolis, to Pensacola, to Miami. Their dancefloor filling shows have reached across the Midwest to Cleveland, Indianapolis, Windsor, Chicago, Des Moines, Milwaukee, and Minneapolis.
2008 was a turning year for Pri yon Joni when he official retired the name, DJ D-Tec, and redefined his artistry. It was in this year when yon Joni along with the Sonic Crystals at some of these shows, began to travel and introduce their unique style of mixing to cities across the Midwest. The most inspiring city of them all was Des Moines, Iowa. Months after his show, Pri yon Joni was invited back to conduct a DJ training seminar. By April 2009, he returned for an encore performance with Sonic Crystal, DJ Miss Mina.
Behind the studio, Pri yon Joni continues to produce, mix, and remix. His "Captivate" compilation series set itself to be the new defining sound of Pri yon Joni. This series has been the forefront of his recognition. Pri yon Joni is also currently the only Asian-American in the state of Michigan to be distributed on Beatport.com under the independent dance label, Sheeva Records. Through Sheeva Records, Pri yon Joni has earned his international credentials with his collaborated tracks with artists from Italy, Russia, Poland, and Germany.
Despite the achievements, Pri yon Joni continue to be a hungry student, searching for more wisdom and knowledge in the art. An avid reader, he does not spend much of his free time in the nightlife where his career is; rather keeping close to his DJ history books and creating new music.
