New York - Multi-platinum producer and world-renowned DJ Disco D has launched music house Disco Digital, lending his musical ear to the areas of composition and sound design. Disco, a musical prodigy who blazed a trail in Detroit's Ghettotech scene at the tender age of 16, has since produced and remixed tracks for what reads like a who's who of the recording industry, including 50 Cent, Nina Sky and Trick Daddy. Of his new business venture and his work with VH1, Disco D says, "Composing the theme music for the VH1 Hip-Hop Honors has continuously been a highlight of my career. I am pleased to be able to kick off my new Disco Digital venture with the 2006 theme. It's definitely the hottest beat I've ever done for TV!
The relationship between Disco D and VH1 began while he was still under the tutelage of New York based Expansion Team. During that time, Disco also utilized his talents in composition and sound design to create innovative sounds for corporations such as Sprite, Best Buy, Comedy Central, Nickelodeon and X Box. Disco is responsible for the VH1 Hip-Hop Honors theme music for three years in a row (sharing co-producing credits in 2005). This year will prove to be the best yet. As Shannon Horan at VH1 put it, "Disco totally rocked this on his first pass. He knows our channel, he knows the artists, he understands all of the nuances of their styles, and he just knocked it out of the park"
Despite Disco Digital's recent inception, the music house boasts an impressive resume that includes the licensing of the Disco D-produced bilingual Brazilian hip-hop group BRAZA's, Son Do BRAZA to NBA Live 07 for Electronic Arts #1 rated NBA simulation, as well as in-show licenses for the latest season of MTV's top-rated The Duel: Real World Road Rules Challenge. D has also been tapped to provide the original score for Bomb It! A feature-length documentary on global graffiti culture, produced and directed by Jon Reiss.
