DJ Tanz
I started clubbing when I was sixteen. The clubs were Odell’s, Gatsby’s, Fantasies, and about ten more. People came to hear the DJ and feel the sound system. I grew up listening to some of the best deejays in the world and didn’t even know why at the time……
It wasn’t until age eighteen that I realized that DJ’ing and producing would be my life’s calling. (to find out how you have to wait for the “full feature documentary” soon to be released).
I started my career performing at college, house and even apt. parties on the damn third floor. I specialized in “Old School” and House at the time, but I quickly realized that being versatile was the key to success. I can play anything that makes people dance.
After a few years spent practicing and building up street credibility, I begin to land residencies at different clubs around town. I eventually hit the “big time” landing a daily old school mix show from 12pm to 1pm on WERQ 92Qjams. After five years of holding down that and other mix shows, I would leave 92Q for the newly arrived X-105.7. A few years later I would find myself with the only mixshow in the country broadcast live from a niteclub on satellite radio. I hosted DJ Tanz Live on “The City” every Friday night on XM satellite channel 67 from 11pm to 1am for the next three years.
At present, I am currently holding down three weekly residencies at The Velvet Rope Club (Fridays), Edens Lounge (Wednesdays) and Lux Lounge (Sundays).
I am also the owner of DJ Tanz LLC, which is a full service DJ, Sound, and Production co. I perform at corporate events, concerts, private parties, wedding receptions…. Etc. I also perform and send dj’s to perform all over the country. We even provide sound systems to local dj’s and promoters.
My career has been a natural evolution and all signs now lead to music production. “Tanz Tracks” coming to a hit record on your radio…. Very Soon.
Peace!
