About Me:

Hey now, I'm JOSE MANGIN nice to meet you... Raised on a healthy dose of tacos and metal since day one, it's SIRIUSLY been a complete mindfuck of a journey, and I know that I'm one lucky dude to be truly involved in a metallic revolution and living my dream every f'ing day. I went from Mexican border town dude to being an Univ. of Arizona chemistry dude to graduate student enrolled in Univ. of Tennessee's College Of Pharmacy dude to singer dude to radio dude to TVT label dude to now. Don't ask me how...as Slayer once sang, it's "Divine Intervention." I program and manage two completely dominating rock stations at SIRIUS SATELLITE RADIO ... HARD ATTACK // SIRIUS 27 {{{"The Heaviest Music On Or Off The Planet!"}}} & BUZZSAW // SIRIUS 19 {{{"Hard & Heavy Classic Rock"}}} and programmed OCTANE // SIRIUS 20 {{{"Pure Hard Rock!"}}} for over four years! I've been with the company since it was a tiny sperm cell. As one of the first voices ever heard on SIRIUS, they still let my metal passion radiate from the speakers on ........ HARD ATTACK MONDAY TO FRIDAY 6 PM - 9 PM ET and SATURDAY 4 PM TO 6 PM ET, and on OCTANE every SATURDAY 9 AM TO 12 NOON ET ........... I also host a nationally syndicated TV show on in over 90 markets called LATINATION with my uber hot slammin' co-host and rocker friend, Desi (see pic below!). It's on Channel 9 (MY 9) in NYC every Sunday @ 3:30pm and across the country on different affiliates mostly on weekends...as they say, "check your local listings!" All in all, I live, breathe and shit rock music and I'm blessed to be doing what I'm doing...thanks for all your support either by being a friend, co-worker, listener, viewer and all that shit and I'm sure one of these days we'll share a beer, joint, email, call, taco platter or something along those lines.

THERE IS NONELOUDER THAN:

...YOU
