Hey Everyone!
Thank you so much for taking the time out of your busy day to click and read my blog! We are already in April and I haven’t even posted a blog. LOL. Well I wanted to kick things off by you getting to know Josh! If you only know me as DJ ROCRYTE, then you don’t really know me.
Well, my name is Josh Pizarro and I am born and raised in Seattle, WA. In between Upper Rainier Beach and Skyway. IFYKYK. My dad (Angelo Pizarro) is a very well known guitarist in the Pacific Northwest. Growing up I would wake up to the sounds of guitar strings and falling asleep to the same rhythm at night. The house was always filled with music. Just listening to music. Listening to music is the first level of learning to DJ. I think that’s what shaped my sound and style.
I would be putting my ear through the vent in my room to listen to my dad practice by himself or with the family band. The way my dad and the band would transition songs was something special. To go from country to disco and everything in between was amazing! Some bands today don’t even do that. Mixing different genre’s and era’s of music is fun and watching my dad do that live really opened my eyes to different types of music. This really stuck with me growing up.
And now, when people hear me DJ, I’m not just playing songs. It’s how I play songs. How I mix them in. I’m not saying I am ALWAYS going to take you on a journey through music, but I am going to keep you singing and moving your feet…or booty lol. I want people to have an experience. To feel the energy. The Nostalgia. The connection.
And at the end of the day? I’m just a chill guy who loves what he does! Thank you coming through and learning a little about me. See you again soon!
