About Us
While the term "DJ" becomes increasingly misappropriated, StoneRokk and Graham Funke have embarked upon a mission to restore some of the fun and return some of the luster to the craft. With creative programming, a master display of technique, and a strong opinion, they hope to dispel the celebutants and new-jack wannabes that have inundated both the nightlife community and the media at large.Mixes
