AUDIO EXPLOSION ENTERTAINMENT

Juan Andreu

Hi my name is Ryan Spencer Colt. I am co-owner and founder of Audio Xplosion Entertainment., a connecticut dj company based in southbury ct.

I was born September 8th 1985 into a very musical family. I have three sisters, all of them are singers including myself. My sisters and I were raised in the theater and film industry. I spent 8 consecutive years starting at age 5 at the Warner Theater doing plays including Annie, Oliver, Peter Pan, The music man and more. My sisters and I also have combined over 150 Television commercials that we have been featured in.

My story starts when I was young, I was also lucky enough to be born into a family that was full of business owners and entrepreneurs. I was quickly taught at a young age the value of working for one's self. My first "business", I started at the age of 10 years old. It was a common business for any young boy to start. I walked up and down my street asking my neighbors if I could mow their lawns for just two dollars. I had a whapping 5 customer base, but never the less I had my first taste of responsibility and money making.

When I was in 9th grade of high school, some close friends of mine began a band much like millions of other 9th graders all over the country. However these kids wanted to do it right. Instead of looking for places to get shows we figured lets host the shows! We started to book bands for the weekends at a teen center in New Milford CT. Everyone took on a job. Some chose to help bands load in and organize equipment, one chose to be an MC. There was a ticket checker and a treasurer. I chose to learn how to run sound and lighting. That's where my life in this Industry really began.

By the time I hit my junior year at Pomperaug high school Southbury, CT., I was big into the business. it was all I thought about! I even did yard work for a big time producer in Bethlehem, Ct. Michael Vascara, just so he could teach me recording tricks and more about the mixing board and sound quality.

When I was at my Junior Ring Dance, that's when it hit me. “I have all this equipment for bands, I should be Djing” oh it's so easy I thought, just play music! Well I was dead wrong!! My first job was at the Junior Ring Dance at my then, old high school the year I graduated. Needless to say it was a disaster!

I could have quit! It would have been the easy way out. But instead I decided to put my dreams for owning a company on hold and got a job with one of the largest DJ and Sound Companies in Ct. “Earn while you learn” that's my motto!!! I was trained in all the different aspects of djing, ceremonies and cultures. I remained in that job and worked my way up in the company for three years where I learned a lot about the business.

Now with my passion for the business and the training I received thru various other companies, I began to create in my mind what my company would be like, how it would run, what we would own and most importantly what was our motto going to be. I decided on Buying the best of the best, where some companies would say “hey, get what works, Get what's gonna cost you the least and still get you paid!” Now that may be a good motto for most, but I strongly disagreed. I wanted to revolutionize the industry. Give people a taste of what would normally only be reserved for the richest of events.

Juan Andreu co-owner of Audio Xplosion Entertainment has been performing music since elementary school. From the age of four he was playing drums. At the age of twelve, he took up the piano. Although there was no official desire to continue learning piano through formal lessons, he continued to play on his free time. Juans love for beats and melodic compositions were what truly inspired him.

Although one could argue that music is truly a part of everyone's lives, music for Juan was one more thing to devote extra time to. Performing in multiple music acts throughout elementary, middle and high school, Juan has been able to obtain a musical ear for sound and beats.

One thing that many people might not know is that Juan has the rare talent of being able to harmonize on key without reading music. Being a trained singer and musician is a key advantage to Djing because it helps in understanding music that much more. In fact, he has worked with band members such as Jonas Friedman, The Bright Light Occasion, TSP, and has also coached high school students from Pomperaug High School in vocal lessons. On his free time, he enjoys writing guitar rifts and composing musical additions to song pieces. Whenever the chance arises Juan is able to vocally coach all types of bands as a vocal producer. Giving keen insight to the musical sound of the production is the main goal.

Since high school, Juan has been able to bring sound and music to a new level. He achieves satisfaction from the audience by knowing what they want to hear. Reading the environment of the party is extremely important; Juan does this very well. As a combined team with Ryan, they make the perfect DJ-duo. With a four year bachelors in Marketing from Post University, Juan intends to use his education to grow the company into one of the best DJ companies in CT. Building a company is not easy. There are many speed bumps in the road to overcome. However, the journey ahead to grow a DJ business will contain inspiration from family and friends throughout New England.

Everyone who has supported us and everyone in the future who grants us the privilege of being a part of their event is also a part of "Audio X Plosion Entertainment Family". We welcome you to take this journey with us!
