Reid Speed & Annalyze (Cat Scratch Fever Tour)
Los Angeles, CA / Rochester, NY
2-Step, Breaks, and Turntablism
Reid Speed - Los Angeles ::: 2-Step, Breakbeats, & Turntablism
(Breakbeat Science, Big H Recordings, Direct Drive, ESDJCO, Contagious Musiq, & Tripple 5 Soul)
After 2 successful drum & bass cd releases (www.breakbeatscience.com/reidspeed), 3 national tours, a DJ/modeling job with Triple 5 Soul, and a stint as the DJ for the WB's Jamie Kennedy Experiment, America's First Lady of Drum & Bass is ready to take the breaks world by storm. Already widely respected as a pioneer of 2 step garage in the US, Reid is never content to rest on anything. You can see it in her face, as she closes her eyes to lock the mix, that the love of music runs deep in her blood. A born & raised New Yorker with 9 years of experience behind the decks, she now calls LA home but has never mellowed in her mission to make booty shake worldwide.
Whether she is working a movie premiere (Pirates of the Carribean, Texas Chainsaw Massacre), a boutique launch (J.Lindeberg, Diesel), the NAMM show (for Numark), a club (like Buzz, Sonar, Spundae, the Asylum), a rave- wherever! Reid undeniably brings the danger to the dancefloor. Her diverse style is unmatched, her selection ranges from all genres of drum & bass to nu- skool breaks, 2 step, 4/4 garage, dark house, and mash up- sometimes all in one set! These days, in between shows, the Speeder has been focused on getting her original production up to snuff. Reid & Jon(S) just signed new skool ragga track "The Bizzle" to NYC-based D&B label Big H Recordings (www.bighrecordings.com), and they have also finished a still untitled smasher, possibly for the flip.
With many more solo and collaborative tunes in various pipelines, now is the time to get down with her sound. Most of her other "free" time is spent working on an upcoming album with hip-hop/drum & bass/horrorshow DMC champ DJ Swamp. Additionally she has completed two tunes with her original junglist mentor DJ Darkstar, and a break-house stormer with Buzz breaks resident Adegen. And if her extensive skills still leave you unconvinced, look for her alongside DJ Rap & Collette, judging the Rockstar Energy Drink/ BPM Magazine's "Beauty & the Beats" Contest. Better yet, catch her on tour with DJ Annalyze (www.djannalyze.net) starting in 2005!
