fulfillment of my dream of travelling thru the
States and Canada to expand my record

massif. But if I were in Chicago tonite (their
time) I'd probably see :

DIZ
________________________________
Nowadays, if you mention Diz’s name amongst
House aficionados, you are almost certain to
hear kudos for his DJ skills, stage presence,
and personable nature. Diz broke into the scene
at age 19 after meeting Mark Farina and Derrick
Carter. Soon afterwards, he and his friends took
over Shelter, one of Chicago’s most legendary
House clubs. In 1995, while working for
Prescription (the label founded by Chez and
Ron Trent), Diz met his future production partner
and close friend, Joshua who worked at
Cajual(and whose nickname, as fate would
have it, was "Iz"). In 1995, Iz & Diz produced
their first record together, "Ghosts in Detroit”. A
year later, Joshua/Iz moved
back to San Francisco, but he and Diz have
maintained the close friendship over the
years and continue to produce together for
labels like Classic, Guidance, Tweekin’, Silver
Network, and Panhandle. Coming in spring
2002 will be his first commercially released
mixed CD on Derrick Carter’s label, Classic.
With all of this in mind, it is our pleasure to
present to our M2O faithful a Chicago House
music icon.
