Artist History OokA MakA, aka Damien Ivan, is currently one of America's dimmest prospects for musical salvation. Since 1989, when he got a Nintendo Entertainment System for Christmas, he has been playing video games and generally goofing off instead of cultivating any semblance of musical talent he may have had. OokA MakA went to the same private school for 13 years all the way from kindergarten until 12th grade, and a year and a half later became an Ivy League dropout, too lazy and unmotivated to complete his degree. He is currently "looking for a job". He combines the worst of his white, upper-middle class background with his lame rich-kid attempts to seem cool in the "underground".Recording since 2000, OokA MakA has put together a very unimpressive total of 2 tracks. The first, "IOU 600", which is little more than a blatant sampled rip-off and deconstructed "collage" of an mp3 he downloaded from the internet (removing any semblance of rhythm or musicality that originally exised therein) hasn't even been heard by anyone beyond his very tolerant roommate, and has received absolutely no critical acclaim.Currently voted the world's worst DJ (He is tied for dead last in the standings at www.thedjlist.com), he is unsuccessfully trying to remake himself as a punk/noise/frenzy artist, mostly due to a complete lack of any real musical talent, beatmatching skills, or singing ability. What are OokA MakA's thoughts on the future? In his own words, "I want to sell out." Sounds like he has a plan.Until then, we can only wish him the best of luck.If you would like to make lots of money with the help of OokA MakA, and if you could care less what kind of music is being played, then this is a perfect opportunity for both parties!
