David Marshall NYC hard-edge Tech DJ here. I'm good at this. Follow me. Engage me. Understand why. It was hard to maneuver my way through the Rites Ball 2021 NYC pre party mayhem.

[An Interview with djPerdición]

[Brilliant yet of questionable moral repute, djPerdición, nicknamed "The Villain", is a wild card, a DJ on the loose. Perdición continues to gain momentum, wielding tech beats like knives to cut through nonsense. Despite the DJ's nightly gambits and other plotting, you'll have the time of your life and be "beat-en" by the hands of a true master. Perdición later com

mented, "Look–at the end of the day we DJ's are doing a service, not brain surgery. We should be both technician and artist– but don't get tangled up in your tinsel," he smiled wisely. I cornered a cute, curvy blond who had the following to say, "This takes you on an awesome sonic ride and f***s with your head...and it feels so good. And it's like pure adrenaline, scary and beautiful. I like a guy with a point of view." Then she ran off. Afterward in the ensuing crowd, I made my way to an empty lounge. I saw small billows of smoke leading me to the DJ. "Sorry, I couldn't find you," I said out of breath. "Never say you're sorry unless you do something wrong. Get to know me, then you'll really be sorry," he chuckled and then said innocently,

"I'm really very gentle–with gentle people, that is." "What's your secret?" I asked Perdición. "I use a phase-shifting fl**ge mixing technique I learned on quartz modified turntables. I'm judicious with sync, it can cause train wrecks and f**k up the sound. Although some say it's primitive, I use Serato because of its analog behavior, glitches and all. I program music while performing-- I'm spontaneous but never random. Now hear me on this: A DJ must program, not be apathetic to the myriad of factors constantly unfolding and presenting. Think of driving. You can be taught the skill but not the instinct and knowingness to do it right." With his classically trained pianist's ear, Perdición's musical sensibility has the power to demolish the competition. "Listen to the words," admonishes the DJ. "They're there for a reason." "Tell me about your name and how it came about?"

"I'm intense, they say. I am like a vessel with no origin and no destination. I ever move but am here only for the moment. And yeah I'm a bit screwed up like the rest of us, I suppose. So yeah, I'm a little lost like the name says. Maybe through the music we can all find that lost destination. Hopefully." "What about your nickname, 'The Villain'?"

"I make other DJ's look bad," he said flatly. "A columnist in DJ magazine wrote, and I quote, 'Friends, there's no easy way to put it- djPerdición is a trouble-maker, a nuisance of the highest sort, relentless and clever.'

"What is your response?"

"Sounds good to me," exclaimed Perdición. Perdición's ability to people watch and deliver musically is unmatched. He follows his instincts with skill befitting a reputation for luring his audiences into an altered state and uncertain fate. His clever, counterintuitive style has emerged as one of the foremost in tech music with intelligent conceptual ex*****on and a keen attention to people. Says Perdición, "The crowd takes the DJ on a journey not the other way around." "A lot of the job is people watching, not jumping up and down or dancing in the booth like some of my dubious contemporaries. Have good posture at all times while working", admonishes Perdición. His first residency was at the notoriously named Club 9-11 in Chelsea, MA, followed by a 3 year residency at the late leather man's dance club- The Yukon Trading Company in Providence, RI. It was there that Marshall found his footing and began to rise. In Providence, the DJ wowed crowds in this sleepy college town, promos in hand of Nu NRG, Trance, Techno, and Progressive house. The young Perdición created a new dance floor for forward thinking elders and snatched curious young men from the grip of local clubland mediocrity. "Tell me about the Yukon", I asked. "It closed years ago, probably the last of the leather clubs with a dance floor. It was my first dance floor and longest residency to date but I don't have a shred of evidence I ever worked there because they never billed the DJ. They wanted men to come for each other not the DJ which led to problems ahead for me. Everybody said my bosses were as****es but funny, I was the one with the gig. In retrospect, although my superiors weren't perfect-and none are-, they liked my music enough to keep me around for almost three years." Perdición was invited to New York City by then longtime friends Steven Hanson and NYC Eagle's former manager, Richard Smith, partner of the late lighting legend Richard Sabala. In NYC venues include: The Eagle (old and new), Splash, 10th Ave Lounge, Hangar, LGBTQ Center, Recovery NYC, and Harry Winston. However, these define a past in need of movement forward. After years of hard work in the big apple, Marshall caught the attention of world renowned DJ-producer-record label owner Georgios Pallikaris (G.Pal) of Utopia Music Concept, Best Radio, (Greece) and Swift records. Marshall continues to work on production with the musical legend. "What is your advice to aspiring DJ's?"

"Don't be afraid to make mistakes and take risks."
