Raised in Miami, Jorge Jaramillo became a DJ because he "fell in love with electronic music". "At a young age, I was the only kid in school carrying around a portable radio I had a friend that was heavily into New York mix tapes. My friend was the only person in my town that had access to mix tapes from New York. It was "old school hip hop" and the song ''Planet Rock'' was what slapped me in the face and made me say "yeah...party people", I fell in love with electronic music.
Jorge soon became a battle style DJ for a Miami Bass group Vicious Bass of which he was also the co-founder and performer. In 1989, Vicious Bass'' first hit ''Shake That Thang'' was quickly added to regular rotation on Power 96, this was his first taste of fame. "I just thought this is it! DJing soon became a passion".
