Born and raised on the upper west side of Manhattan, NYC
I developed a passion for music that never stopped, grew stronger everyday!
As a kid I remember running home to catch the Latin Rascals on WKTU, listening to their master mixes and recreating their edits on a tape deck and then later on a reel to reel. I started to pick apart music and loved it.
I was influenced by so many… Albert Marrero (Mr. Downtown Records), Victor Rosado, Timmy Regisford, Tony Humphries, Louie Vega, Joe Clauselle, Frankie Knuckles and of course Larry Levan.
I collect and enjoy all types of music from Disco to Rap, from the late 60’s to the present time. My musical library is very extensive, spanning from vinyl to digital media. But my true loves are Disco & House…
Hard to describe what I feel when I play these genres, It takes me to a special place, it’s like I can feel everyone’s souls.
Music has and will always be my answer, my sanctuary.
Recently, I have started to produce and create remixes, making them my own, definitely something I enjoy and will continue to do.
I have been truly blessed, I have played at venues such as Cielo NYC (Funkbox), Coney Island Boardwalk, Central Park Skaters Park, Newark Public Library & Allure Lounge.
My first remix with Duce Martinez and in collaboration Dj Spen, will be released summer 2020 on Quantize Recordings
Lastly…. On April 27, 2017 Duce Martinez took a chance on an unknown Dj, never heard me play, never met me (Had no clue who I was)…. That Day I became a DWILDMUSICRADIO programmer!
