ABOUT
A graduate of Yale and the
A.R.T. Institute at Harvard, I was an
an actor for many years, in
theater, television, short film, and
voiceover, the best thing being
collaborating in the development
of new works. (I remain a proud member of SAG-AFTRA and Actors' Equity Association.)
But it is music and the curation of it, playing with the surprise of it, and the creation of any atmosphere desired through curiosity and discovery that has always been my first love, and still guns my engines these days.
Ultimately, what interests me most is creating an experience that engages, encourages, motivates, even inspires people. Music is one of our greatest communal joys, and I want to authentically make the most of it, by tailoring to whomever the guests. I believe my theater and collaborative background perfectly compliment this aim.
I am available to DJ whatever occasion you can imagine. (Though based in New York, I am portable and willing to travel.)
*BARS / PUBS - Whatever your clientele: effervescent 20-somethings, grizzled veterans, edgy hipsters, families, all ages ... Tell me what they like. Dance Pop? Regueton? Oldies? Punk? Remixes? Open format, changing with who comes and goes? I'll find fun ways of filling their ears and their cups.
*CORPORATE EVENTS / COMMERICAL SPACES - Company parties, brand rollouts, store openings, hotel happy hours, gyms ... Whatever atmosphere you want to create, it can be done. Upbeat party? Cinematic progressive house ambience? Let's attract business!
*PRIVATE PARTIES - Whatever you require, with access to a genre-fluid library, collected over decades, ready to suit whatever range of folks you want to entertain.
*CHARITY EVENTS - A fundraiser? A rally? A theme? Civil rights, LGBTQ, fine arts support; etc. ... Discounts available.
*CLUBS - Want to create a sophisticated chill lounge vibe? A deep house techno sweat-fest? A celebration of world music? You will be provided with hours of thoughtful, effective mixing.
I have a 4-deck Pioneer DDJ-FLX10 controller, or can alternatively use a smaller 4-deck, 2-channel Roland 505 controller w/ a drum machine and sequencer, each of which allow for remixing on the fly, a Behringer Xenyx mixer for audio quality control, and a MacBook Pro using Serato Pro software when performing. I can also use just the laptop or a mobile device alone, with the proper sound system and/or lighting necessary for the venue in question.
