DJ Skribble may be Italian-American, but that didn't stop him from spinning in a group called Young Black Teenagers in the early 90s. From there he went on to work on Wyclef's first album, to releasing MDMA, Essential Dance 2000 on Atlantic Records. You may also know him for teaming up with MTV on Total Request Live, The Grind, and other tv shows. He's also responsible for a 24 count discography of albums, compilations, and singles and at least 35 remixes. Hey, he's a busy guy, and that means he's on the road for 200 shows a year. He started out in 1980, was the first DJ to have hos own toy and video game, and also performs regularly with guitar dude Dave Navarro. Basically, go to the damn show.
