Andre Perry started DJing in 1987 playing college parties and after gaining
popularity for his skills at Georgia Southern University he started performing
at campus functions until his graduation in 1992. After returning back
to Atlanta he landed a Saturday night residency at the infamous "Club

clubs and has worked non - stop as a resident at Oxygen Athens, Groove

has been featured numerous times on the 99x Beat Factory radio mix show
in Atlanta. He has also been featured on The Hot 107.9 mix show in Panama
City, Florida, and now has his own mix show every Saturday Night from
11 am to 2 am on Atlanta's hottest Station, Q-100 (WWWQ). He also spins
the early Saturday night Q (9-11) every other week as well.
His hybrid style of progressive house and progressive trance has sent him all over the US to play with such likes as: Chris Fortier, BT, DJ Rap, Dean Coleman, Keoki, Mistress Barbara, Chris Cox (Thunderpuss), DJ Skribble, Richard "Humpty" Vission, John Acquaviva, Omar Santana, Bad Boy Bill, Darude, DJ Irene, Satoshi Tomiie, DJ Mea, DJ Collette, Baby Anne, Donald Glaude, Felix Da Housecat and DJ Icey just to name a few. In 1994 Andre Perry jumped into the music industry working for Vibrations magazine and Perry Music Associates in which he assisted in the signing of the rock group "Dead Eye Dick" to Ichiban Records. After a few years under his belt in the music industry, Andre started working with Remix Central in 1997. He began building himself as an established DJ throughout the music industry. He competed at the Nightclub and Bar Spin-off beating out 12 top DJs only to advance to the finals. He placed in the top 5 by illustrating flawless turntable skills mixed with a set filled with floor pounding energy.
In 1998, Andre saw the beginning of a new venture. He joined the team at DMA Magazine as the Special Projects Director. He traveled the US with DMA not only exposing the magazine but also promoting his national DMA Compilation release "Clubhouse" on Fusebox Recordings. In June 2000, Andre joined yet another team at MIXMAN as the Atlanta Regional Promotional Director which has lead him to Djing work with such companies as INTEL, MATTEL and BEATNIK. In June, looking back on his achievements as a nightclub DJ, Andre decided to open a DJ academy where he could share his knowledge and experiences with those future DJs who are aspiring to reach people through music. When not teaching at ADJA, working at the club or at Q-100, you can find Andre on the road demonstrating for Denon Pro Audio and working on his newest venture in film. Andre was recently chosen by Wembly Hall Theatre Company in Sherman Oaks, California to work on a few movie compositions and scores ("Kiss Kiss Bang Bang" and "Abby Singer" featuring Jodie Foster among others). He is also DJing the premier after party at the sundance film festival for the release of "Abby Singer".
