A third generation Native Arizonan, Perry spent his early DJ days spinning at a dozen of small clubs, sports bars, and odd ball gigs. It wasn't until 1998 when he became a regular at Club Rio spinning 2-3 nights a week for over a year. Even though the place is shut down now, it opened the door to radio since that's where he met his connections to his first AZ residence: "Mega 104.3" and sister station "Energy Az" (later changed format to The Beat).
With radio being his first love, Perry grew up listening to Hot Mix (Dave Rajput), Powertools (Eddie Amador), and Planet Edge / Edge Factor (Markus Schulz). Being able to spin multi-formats, Perry has been influenced by all the mentioned mixshows and then some. These programs are now in the past, but Perry keeps these records alive on his various syndications and Internet Streams.
Now Perry does syndicated Mixshows on a number of FM stations (NM, NJ, CT) including AZ's new Hit Music Station, 90.7 The Goldmine (KVIT AZ). Monday through Friday, Perry does the 7am Morning MiniMix with Steve Grosz. Then on Fridays, catch him on "The Weekend Jump Off" (9p-Mid) and also for "The House Connection" Late Saturday Nites (Mid-2am) MST.
With the rise of Internet Radio, Perry can also be heard worldwide from a handful of streams daily. "Addicted to Radio" from Chicago has thousands of listeners all over the globe, and Perry mixes on 6 of their format channels at various times. "PartyRadioUSA.net" from New York streams Perry weekdays for the "Old School Cafe" during Lunchtime (EST). Another Mix Perry just picked up is from Florida on "Star 107." For all the House heads, catch Perry's weekly House sets on "The Goldmine," and "Z88.9" from New Jersey. Make sure to view djperry.net for more info and times to stream DJ Perry shows. |
