About
Jason Cerna | Create Your Badge
I'm a DJ, Music Producer and Artist. Born in 1978, I was raised by MTV and my parents eclectic music collection. At a very young age, I got into breakin and I used to dance for people at family gatherings. That naturally pushed me into the whole hip hop culture and its music. As the years rolled on, I was introduced to other genres of music - house, trance, breaks, dnb, etc. I got my first pair of turntables in 2003 and I started DJing for crowds in 2004. Things have been going well for me since then. I've rocked parties alongside my friends, The Boogieburg Soundsystem, in and around Blacksburg, VA, D.C. and WV.
For about 2 years, I ran my own bi-monthly at Blacksburg's one and only She-Sha Cafe & Hookah Lounge. There I played a lot of different music from downtempo, deep house, indie hip hop, electronica and liquidfunk. After living in Blacksburg off and on for about 6 years, I moved to Falls Church, Va with my lovely lady, Caroline, in 2008.
As far as music production goes, I use Ableton Live for my work. I have some unreleased original productions and a good number of bootlegs and mashups I've made.
With my art, I enjoy drawing from life and from my imagination using ink, graphite or charcoal, painting with acrylics, mixed media, and design projects. As of January 2010, I'm a member of Falls Church Arts. I'm looking forward to participating and helping out the organization as much as I can this year and in the years to come!
Besides art, music, my girlfriend, and our pets, I like to play video games. My favorites being Modern Warfare 2 and Mass Effect 2. I also enjoy being outdoors and mountainbiking.
