Born in exile during Namibia's Liberation struggle, DJ PsyOn (real name Ndakolute Ndilua) comes from humble beginings which have made him the laid back and mild mannered character he is today. the second of two boys, he wasnt born into a family with a musical background, but discovered the talent he has for music production while still in his teens, and hoaned his own style of hip hop, rap, kwaito & house. His break into the music industry came by chance, as a childhood friend was interested in making a demo, which helped him get signed to Lowkey Records. At the time, the childhood friend who goes by the name of Qonja, has now become one of the leading artists in Namibia with two successful albums under his belt. It would however take this aspiring producer more time to break into the music industry. Currently he is contracted by HiNotes Records to produce for their artists, and is working on projects with some of the most talented artists in Namibia. The likes of Mappz, Tesh, Qonja, Sunnyboy, Chipolopolo, ING and many others

Currently he is also busy producing his own house cd, which at one point could have been a triple cd, has been slimmed down to a single cd.
