A
BRIEF HISTORY OF STARCOM AUDIO ENTERTAINMENT
Written by: DJ Dr. DRAX
My career in the Entertainment
Industry started at a very young age being in theatre. Later
in High School I was involved in more of the technical aspects
of theatre as well as earning more lead roles. This helped me
develop confidence to be in front of hundreds of people. I was
always complimented on my voice & personality. They would
always say "You ought to be on the radio!" So I thought
"Why Not?" This was back in the days where a Radio
DJ actually RAN the radio station & required an FCC licence
which could only be obtained after passing an extensive test
in order to work there. I got my first radio ON AIR job at 15.
I was the afternoon drive DJ for the largest TOP40 station in
town.
I had never really thought of
being a mobile DJ, I was content to just spin for the radio
station on their live remote broadcasts & for friends. I
did that for several years. Later I decided to focus on more
of the engineering side of the industry which lead me to working
in the aerospace industry developing advanced laser systems.
My love for music & entertaining
was now fullfilled in the pursuit of an acting career in film
& television. I was successful in being cast in numerous
national commercials as well as comedic TV & films. Later
as a person going to many parties & social events I would
always notice the DJ, the things they did, most were just terrible.
I was always being approached by friends & others that knew
I had great music & a good sense for what people wanted
to hear at a party, they would ask me to go get my CD's to give
to the DJ so that they would finally play some good music.
I kind of just went along with
this for a while until a friend asked me one night after I had
again given the Dj the music & suggested the order to play
them in & created another great party out of a dead one,
that he asked me "What's wrong with this picture? He is
playing YOUR music, YOUR way & HE is the one getting PAID!"
It gave me cause to think. He suggested that I become a mobile
Dj & spin for large parties. I decided after that weekend
that I would get back into being a DJ, However my terms were
strict. It would be the best, most in demand & technically
advanced Entertainment company that was possible to be. That
weekend, Starcom Entertainment was born. That was 8 years ago.
In that time Starcom Entertainment has grown into one of the
most in demand entertainment companies in the Western United
States. We are regularly found entertaining in everywhere from
San Diego, Los Angeles, Las Vegas to Phoenix to Salt Lake City.
