Eddie: Entrepreneur and DJ

by Betty Lipano

After series of trending news about Metro Events Zone,  I finally had the pleasure of catching up with one of its brains, Eddie.

Edgar “Eddie” Altuna Jr. worked in the corporate scene in Manila for about a decade. When he decided to move back to his home town, Batangas, he used this experience and applied it to his own life. During his stay here, he assisted in a number of growing companies and also invested in new ones, including Metro Events Zone. And as for the newest hip place that people are buzzing about, Eddie said “like Rome, Metro Events Zone was not built in a day. We had to do extensive research and series of presentations to have everybody on board.” And as the ball roll, people continue to join the bandwagon as they posts their comments and likes on their very first big event, DJ Showdown.

Speaking of DJ, who would have thought that this well rounded entrepreneur is also trending as a DJ? Yup, DJ Eddie does his DJ gigs in and out of town as well. For Batangas native, DJ Eddie said that music has always been a driving force in his life. So if you are looking for someone to play at your party and hoedown, DJ Eddie is your best bet! With spun tunes at countless  gigs and events, DJ Eddie has made a name for himself through his DJ sets and also travels around spreading his sound.

When I asked Eddie about his secret on his life’s success, he said “there are 5 things I carry to myself all the time: Know what you want and own it; Take time to connect with yourself; Be financially responsible; Challenge convention; and most importantly, have fun!”

And for Halloween, here’s an advance treat to all fans out there from DJ Eddie--his very first published mix. Click it and share it!
