American
elektro-shaman, Woody McBride,
aka DJ ESP, rocks
the world with his unique style of tribal techno,
acid house, elektro, ambidelics, hardtek and authentic
old school minimal electronic music.
2007 - ESP has a new mix-album released 31 October,
his live PA performance at the legendary Mayday Festival
Germany was spectacular, he re-launched his foundational
American record label Communiqué Records on
vinyl worldwide and digitally as a featured artist
via Beatport.com, he is booked weekly around the
planet and does a pioneering and futuristic dance
mix show and CD for America’s premier alt-public
radio station - 89.3 FM The Current broadcast from
Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota in the United States.
Raised in the rugged and interesting North Dakota,
ESP has rung up over 3 million frequent flyer miles,
released nearly 200 records and CDs and inspired
many people to love music, get back to nature and “be
alive” - without the use of drugs and alcohol.
He is known to be a man of all hats in the electronic
music business – musician, dj, live performer,
event promoter, live audio engineer and large sound
system visionary, graphic artist, music journalist,
label owner, artist coach, soundtrack producer, educator,
spiritual guide, sobriety and wellness advocate and
ambassador for electronic music to all audiences.
Since 1990, his signature deeper than deep 909 kick
drum, a base chakra synth funk and a thick mysterious
303 acid sound is what has put ESP in a hard-to-label
league of legendary and pioneering producers. His
art now shines the brightest today.
