At the
age of 14 DJ Spen began his career in music by
producing radio edits and supermixes for WEBB AM in
Baltimore. During that time he founded the
region's first hip hop/mix production group called
NUMARK whose popularity carried them into performing
with national acts like LL Cool J, Run DMC, Eric B
and Rakim. In 1986 the group recorded its full
length LP entitled "It's Our Time" on
Studio Records that featured the hit record
"Girl You Know Its True" which was later
covered by Milli Vanilli. Spen became an on-air personality and mixshow director for WEBB, and after graduating from college, he secured a job at late night personality for MAJIC 95.5 FM. This job landed him a late night hip hop/house show on friday nights, and the ol'skool formatted flashback saturday night dance party for the station. Later, with the acquisition of the two new stations in Washington, D.C Spen became mixshow director for the company. While his radio career was changing constantly. Spen worked with The Basement Boys as a song writer, drum programmer, and a pre-production assistant. Involved with the company since 1989, his influence on early Crystal Waters and Ultra Nate projects can be heard. With the start of Basement Boys records in 1994, Spen formed The Jasper St Company, and released his first full production called "A Feelin". Later, along with his partner Josane, Spen completed The Jasper St Company LP entitled "In A Spensane World". Today Spen is a full-time remixer/producer for Basement Boys productions, a nation wide mix show dj for Superadio Network, and a night club dj worldwide.
