History
Alturn-8 aka Eric began his DJ career in 2003. He was born and raised in the Youngstown area; he has been a fan of electronic dance music since the late 90s, but heavily favoring the breakbeat sound. Eric has been an avid follower of the EDM scene and in 2005 after being primarily a bedroom DJ he was given his first chance to showcase his abilities at “Burufunk” in New Castle, PA. In 2006 he helped co-run a weekly at Salty Grogs in Austintown Ohio. After taking a small hiatus in 2006 due to the birth of his daughter, the Fever Productions crew gave him an opportunity to be a monthly resident at their weekly event at the Wedge nightclub in Austintown. That pretty much leads up to now. If you’re a fan of breakbeats or the electro house sound you do not want to miss one of Alturn-8’s sets!
