In their deperate attempt to erase me from history, Josh David/ Fakedown has removed me from the Breakdown Myspace page. They also took down the website where i was the first one in the crew listed and the "About Us" Section, and the Breakdown bio which read:

Breakdown is LA’s most incendiary DJ/ Promotion/Production team, made up of Reid Speed & Josh David. They met in 2005 through Reid & ESDJCOs “Icebreaker” party at Circus/ Spundae and exploded into an empire of breakbeat-heavy party music and sick graphical branding. Breakdown (the party) kicked off in 2006 at The Vanguard in Hollywood and featured the top talent of Krafty Kuts, Deekline, Ctrl Z & Screwface, Aquasky, Lee Coombs, and Baby Anne during its tenure. The party expanded to other venues, where The Rogue Element, Hybrid, Meat Katie, General Midi, The Autobots, NAPT, and LA Riots have all thrown down for the Breakdown. Along with Beatz & Bobz, they hosted the Nu-Skool Breaks room at the 2006 Ultra Afterparty at WMC. Their continuing efforts to push new sounds to an ever-expanding audience include their much loved EXPLOSIVE mix CD series, their weekly show on iBreaks Radio, their high energy DJ sets, and their limited edition Breakdown T-shirt line launched in the summer of ‘07. In late fall of 07, they decided to add production to their resume, Josh’s brother Matt David joined the crew, and Breakdown Sound was born.


He also started a facebook "fan" page for Breakdown where they have left me off the members of the group, and are clearly not moving on without the name, as we shook hands and agreed to back in January.

I have moved on, and thought it would be civil and simple to get on with our separate lives and music careers. But when dealing with coddled trust fund brats, who didint have much going on prior to their involvement with me, and one who doesnt understand what hard work and dedication are about, this is unfortunately how it ends up sometimes.

I am posting this up to let anyone who liked Breakdown because of my involvement,
I am not involved anymore, and that they should no longer support it...

In fact, if you care, or have a minute, please remove yourself from their list of friends, flag them as spam, or send them a message letting them know how you feel about their pathetic ploy to feed off the good name I gave them...

thank you for reading, and thank you for your support.
