It's On-Just Listen
First Entry- Helloooo

Hello world! Welcome to the ITS On Productions blog.
What a journey it has been for ITS On. Incorporated in 2004, right after I graduated from Elon University, and moved to Tampa, FL. I produced an informercial for a golf company and did a few corporate videos to start growing my business. I also spent nights and weekends searching for a club that would give me a shot to DJ. After being in the Elon "bubble" for so long, I didn't realize how difficult it would be to get things going.
After about a year of "grinding," I was given an opportunity to DJ at Splitsville in Channelside (Tampa, FL). I still spin there (6 years and counting), and it really broke me into the Tampa music scene.
The DJ thing was nice BUT it wasn't paying the bills...SO I decided to get involved with a company that my Dad and his partner started back in 1996. I won't bore you with that part of the story. To fast forward, they sold the company on 12/31/2010.
NOW that brings me to the current situation of ITS On Productions, DJ Figmint AND the all new DreamCloud Radio Hits!! This is definitely the beginning of something I have been "dreaming" of since I first started broadcasting WAAAAYYY back in my freshman year at Charlotte High School. You gotta love how much technology has grown over these past years. It's AMAZING!
Well, I think this is a good first blog. What do you think? :) Check in as often as you can for updates. I plan on updating regularly (we'll see how that goes...) Y'all will have to stay on me.
More to come! Stay "tuned."
Musically yours,
Ian "DJ Figmint"
