DJ Johnny Fingers (real name John Arroyo) grew up in Dallas Texas listening to electro, punk rock, new wave, and hip-hop. By High School he had been turned onto funky breaks and techno and then by senior year began getting hooked on house music. Through some DJ friends and various raves (like the hazy daze parties) his listening and DJ focus shifted to deep, chicago, & acid house. By the time he graduated he had DJ'ed at various lounges, clubs and raves in the Dallas area.

From Tejas he moved to Pittsburgh for college where he majored in electrical engineering and minored in fine art (and some elctronic music studies thrown into the mix). After a few years he became the most requested DJ on campus. He was spinning once or twice a week at various house parties, gallery openings, clubs & even the occasional rave. Studying and making music music in Pittsburgh was a blast for Fngers. He got to really experiment with sound and controlling the dance floor. His work in Pittsburgh also greatly influenced the wackier side of his spinning and productions. Collaborating with the artists on campus allowed him to explore the experimental sides of rhythm. Not to mention, Jerry's records and the local thriift shops were a crate diggers' dream!

He moved to New York City at the beginning of 2001 and has lived there ever since. It has become his new home and scene to throw down beats. He's spun at numerous lounges, clubs & bars in the city and has been spinning amongst some of NYC's finest talent. Currently his rotating parties with his partner in crime, Aaron Schumm, and various other DJs include the Red Pepper Sessions and Broken Home parties which have been well recieved in the city. Along with spinning in NY, he has had the opportunity to spin mulyiple times in various countries in Europe.

Along with his DJn and dance music productions he has been involved with the art scene a bit. Fingers completed musical compositions for a conceptual art piece called Vagamundo, created by Visual/Media Artist Ricardo Miranda. He produced all the music and audio. Over the past 2 years Vagamundo has traveled to LA, Chicago and, of course. NYC. The piece was even featured at the Re:New - Frontiers in Creativity show at Columbia University which highlighted works from professors and Eletronic Artists around the city.
