DIRTY SOUTH
JOSH
DJ. Gamer. Developer. Streamer.
Thirty years behind the decks, games when I feel like playing, and a text MMORPG I'm building from the ground up. This is where it all comes together.

It's not just a DJ stream.
I'm a DJ, gamer, programmer, game developer, livestreamer, and digital artist. Some days you're going to get a heavy Drum & Bass session. Some days it's Fortnite or NASCAR 25. Some days I'm buried in code building my MMORPG, crafting animated overlays, or designing custom websites. Sometimes you're just watching life happen.
Five things. One stream.
DJ
Thirty years of selecting and mixing Drum & Bass, Jungle, Neurofunk and heavy underground sounds.
Gaming
Fortnite, NASCAR 25 and whatever else I'm playing. Sometimes with the audience. Sometimes just me.
Development
I'm building and running Rites of Passage, my own text-based MMORPG, with the game already playable for testing.
Graphics & Animation
Custom stream overlays, motion graphics, and graphic design built using Photoshop and After Effects to level up your brand.
Life Stream
Real life, projects, downtime, conversations and whatever happens along the way.
Still selecting.
I've been DJing for three decades. The technology changed. The music changed. The reason for doing it didn't.
No requests. I'm the selector. I choose what goes into the set.
When I'm not DJing...
Sometimes I just play.
Fortnite. NASCAR 25. Other games when they catch my attention. Some sessions are about hanging out with the audience. Others are simply me playing.
WATCH THE STREAMI'm building a world.
I'm not just talking about game development. I'm actually building and running my own text-based MMORPG.
The project is actively being developed, tested and expanded — and you can already enter the world and play.
⚔ ENTER RITES OF PASSAGERites of Passage
Rites of Passage is my own fantasy text-based MMORPG. I'm developing the game, building its systems and creating the world behind it. It's an ongoing project, which means the realm is constantly changing as new features are developed, tested, broken, rebuilt and brought to life.
The show is moving with me.
I'm moving into a nursing home, but I'm not giving up the things I've spent years building.
When my health allows, I'll keep DJing, gaming, programming and streaming. The location may change. The format may change. The stream doesn't have to disappear.
Keep the
Bassline Alive.
I'm not trying to build some giant corporation. I'm trying to keep an independent stream running.
The goal is simple: $50 per month.
Why $50?
There are recurring digital services behind the stream, the games, the development environment and the tools that make all of this possible.
I'm keeping the target intentionally simple: $50 a month.
You don't have to contribute. Watching, following and hanging out are already support.
But if you want to help keep it running, I appreciate the hell out of it.
COME HANG OUT.
Catch a DJ session. Watch some gaming. See what I'm programming. Or enter the realm I'm building.
