#016 | June 17th, 2010: LRCN & Thomas Penton

Click the post for details on this episode! LRCN has been around Digitally Imported Radio for quite a while now. His enjoyment of progressive sparked his interest in DI Radio’s Progressive Channel where he has become a regular since it opened, now not only is he host of The Bidness, but he is also the co-director of the Progressive Channel, taking on the responsibility of bookings. LRCN has helped shape and mold the Channel to what it is today. To date, LRCN has played at L.A.’s Spundae & RED, Circus Disco, as well as the occasional cross-border gig in cities such as Minneapolis, Phoenix, Harrisburg, and Toronto to name a few. But, he is equally at home with the smaller venues, whipping up dancers at raves and private house parties from time to time. For anyone thinking they might like to try their hand at being a deejay, he advises, “Be sure it’s something you want to do for the music, yourself, and event attendees. Don’t do it for the wrong reasons. Practice, practice, practice. Once you’ve got it down, start promoting yourself and eventually the gigs will come on a regular basis.” So where can LRCN be heard? Monthly at The Bidness on Digitally Imported Radio’s Progressive Channel every 2nd Tuesday starting @ 2 PM EST; and at www.djlrcn.com - where you can download free promotional mixes.
