Triple Beam Team Production Member D.J.Rad started producing music in 1996 in the basement of the Triple Beam Team studio with production partner Johnny Quest. Rad then started DJ'ing at live venues for the 1990 Atlantic recording artist Wyze Guyz and Uptown (MCA) group Lost Boyz who were local rap acts out of South Jamaica Queens at the time. During the time of DJ’ing at parties and shows at the infamous Nottington Townhouse and Elks Lodge in queens Rad went on to teach himself the art of producing tracks.
Learning hands on with the help of the legendary Jam Master Jay of the group Run DMC, Kool T from the 1986 (RAL/Def Jam Records) group The Afros and producer Crush Master out of the music building (now defunct) in Jamaica Queens.
Producing began to be Rad’s #1 thing so he later on went producing demo's for local artists and one such local artist was Interscope/Shady/After Math’s recording artist 50 Cent which he and partner Johnny Quest went on to produce a 5 song demo of rough unpolished songs before 50 Cent’s Deal on the JMJ/RAL label.
Triple Beam’s music production later found its way to the hands of 1996 Payday recording artist Jeru The Damaja from the Gang Starr foundation who set the producers up with Chrysalis recording artist Guru and Payday recording artist Group Home.
Rad went on to produce numerous tracks with Guru and the Group Home that ended up on their gold European release "A Tear For The Ghetto" on Freeze Records. He then became the group’s official tour DJ and toured Europe and Asia with Group Home and Guru for Guru’s 1993’s Jazzmatazz album.
