Somethin' Wit' Jazz by Mr. V

Künstlerbiographie Mr. V

Growing Up In The 1980’s The Open-Minded Mr. V Was Heavily Influenced By House Hip-Hop Latin Garage And Disco Classics Rhythm & Blues And Jazz. Mr. V Was Enamored By The Role A DJ Commanded Over A Crowd And Was Taken By The Talents Of His Friend Lord G. Who Had A Weekly Thursday Night Party In New York City. Despite Wanting To Be A Professional DJ It Wasn’t Until He Met The Legendary Louie Vega That He Found His Calling. “Louie Used To Have His Party Called “Underground Network ” And That’s Where I Discovered A Deeper Taste For House Music. I Always Wanted To Be A DJ But Louie’s Type Of Music – That Whole Soulful Sound – Is What I Wanted To Play ” Says Mr. V. Louie Vega Saw The Drive And Potential In Mr. V And Hired The Young Nuyorican DJ / Producer As His Assistant At The World Famous Masters At Work Label. In This Position Mr. V Was Given A Rare Glimpse Into The Global Dance Scene And Before Long Was Taking To The Decks Alongside His Mentor. Stylistically Mr. V Has A Wildly Eclectic Sound That Brings Spontaneity Back To The Art Of DJing. “Sometimes I Just Pull Stuff Out Of The DJ Bag Out Of The Blue. I Like To Keep People Guessing. I Play Things That I Don’t Think Other People Are Playing – I’ll Play A House-Rock Record Or Some Classic Stuff. It’s Always Different And Depends On The Vibe ” He Says. In 2001 Along With Partner Alix Alvarez Mr. V Launched His Own Label Sole Channel Music As A Way To Release Music With Complete Control And Artistic Freedom. 2006 Was A Breakout Year For Mr. V As We Saw The Release Of His Much Anticipated Debut Album Welcome Home. Combining His Multifaceted Skills As A Dj / Producer / Remixer And With An Ear Towards Dance Music’s Roots Mr. V Is A Name To Watch Out For!
