WHO IS DJ MIX MASTER BROWN?
MixmasterBrown “African Dj Of The Year”. A Lagos born and bred dj, hails from Cross River & Delta States. A proud Calabarboy at all ramifications. Spent some time in Jos. His love for music was discovered while in high school (Aguda Grammar school). Brown was only 16 years old when he started spinning records at neighborhood high schools with his family’s music equipment.His sister was so supportive of his skills and talent that she drove to the store to buy him his very first mixer (Gemini Pmx). Losing his dad in 1988 only made him work hard to be a better person.
By the time he left high school, he found himself as the pioneer DJ for the Nation’s number one record store (Tower Records and Tapes) owned by two (2) brothers-DJ Mannix and Collins Akpapunam.
While he was the head boy at Tower Records and Tapes, he mastered the secret and art of mixing.
