New York clubsters know the power our DJs yield in breaking and making a record. From the days when Madonna stepped to the DJ booth at Danceteria to hand Jellybean Benitez her “Holiday” track to the nights Junior Vasquez spun Whitney’s “Step By Step” into an internationally beloved club anthem, our DJs have long shaped what the rest of the world grooves to.
A new pack of spinners have emerged as today’s leaders in NYC and like their predecessors, these DJs are tearing up floors and redefining the meaning of club music.

This is greatest city on the planet!”
