 Imagine playing as a young child and discovering your parent's record collection in the basement. You open a dusty box and find a record player. You pick up one of the vinyl discs and read the psychedelic cover..."Creative Source"...hummmm. Looks interesting. You remove the record and gently place the disc on the old wooden turntable with built-in speakers. "Who is He....What is He to You!!" blares from the speaker. Your life is forever changed. You see another album cover... John Coltrane... "Afro Blue". The disc is as thick as a dinner plate. You handle this one more gently then the other. This sound is different but you are put in a trance by the smooth melodies of that horn. Your goal in life is now to own EVERY recording in the world. You are transformed into a vinyl junkie. As you evolve into a teen, you become consumed with jazz and rhythm and blues. Then you witness and participate in the birth of hip-hop, Go-Go, New Wave...and House music. This musical evolution is what Basement Soul Radio represents. Take this 'feeling' and join your host and guide, LaMont "DJ X-Treme!" Carson, on a daily funky expedition right here at BasementSoul.com. Experience Deep House, Club Classics, NeoSoul, Rare Soul, Classic Hip-Hop, Jazz Fusion, and more... broadcasting around the world 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year!

 DJ X-Treme!, better known as LaMont Carson, has been spinning his soulful flavor since 1979. LaMont loves all types of music but is heavily influenced by Deep House, Dance Classics, Old School Hip-Hop, R&B and Jazz. He has been involved in the radio broadcast industry for over 15 years and got his start when his first Hip-Hop mix was played on "The Jerry Bloodrock Show" on WHBI-FM in Newark, New Jersey in 1981. Back then, LaMont was a true Hip-Hop head and rode the PATH subway from his hometown Jersey City, New Jersey to New York to get the latest breaks from Rock n' Soul Records and Vinylmania. He soon fell in love with House Music when he experienced the sounds of clubs like Zanzibar, Sensations/New Experience, Club 88, Club Cheetah and the Paradise Garage.
From 1983 - 1991 LaMont was spinning house, hip-hop, classics, reggae and R&B at parties and on the radio in Tallahassee, Florida and lovin' life! He has worked at WANM, WAMF, WIQI, WHBX, WHBT, WRAS and WGHR. He moved to Atlanta where he spun at EarWax 2nd Saturday's, and was the resident DJ at "Diamond's & Pearls" and "Al Capone's". He also hosted a radio show called 'Spin Cycle' on 88.5 and 'House Vibes' on 102.5FM as founder of "DJ X-Treme and the Basement Soul Disciples". Both shows featured LaMont's exclusive club, disco, dance classix and rare groove mixes. While in Atlanta, LaMont got a chance to work with voiceover legend Mitch Faulkner and served as Assistant Editor of "The Edge" Radio Trade magazine.
Most recently, LaMont was a Sr. IT Project Manager with Turner Broadcasting in Atlanta and has managed game, video and mobile products for CartoonNetwork.com, AdultSwim.com , ToonamiJetstream.com and CNN.com. He has also served as an IT consultant for WebMD, Ericsson and MediaOne and in addition to the US, has worked in Scotland, London, Sweden.
