Knowledge is known as being one of the original foundation layers for the underground dance and dj circuit in the mid-90’s. His underground blend of dirty electro house, tech-house, driving progressive, tribal house, techno, and dirty tech-funk has taken audiences of 5 to 5000+ and turned rooms inside out worldwide. Always taking the time to hand select the most cutting edge production in the tracks he plays, his signature sound of genre-bending, layered, journey sets have transformed many minds and moved countless bodies in 13 years of djing.
