DJ Stylus
There are too many records in the world to stick to one style and DJ Stylus embraces that in his party-rocking philosophy.
Dubbed The Vibe Conductor by his fans, Stylus takes a tight groove approach to mixing and applies it to a palette of tunes from overlooked classics to the newest progressive electronic sounds, connecting the soulful elements of his selections to inspire dance floors. With extensive multi-genre fluency, DJ Stylus creates musical narratives that are nuanced, compelling, ambitious and far-ranging. Check out his remixes and shows at his own site, grab some tropical vinyl releases from Sol Power Sound, or check for his Axel F Party, serving up R&B, funk and pop from the ’80s.

I played my first club gig at 17 and been rocking ever since.
-
As many different styles as possible, from classic hip-hop to ’90s R&B to music of the african and latin diasporas, to go-go to disco to deep house. I'll always have a lot to say about my favorite music.

They’re a party like any other. The difference is that it’s also a life milestone that requires exceptional customer service. I rock weddings just as hard as I used to rock basement parties in college. And people remember some of those as vividly as a client will remember me playing their wedding. Then my job is done.

Key in on whomever on the floor has the highest energy and play to them. Their enthusiasm then spreads contagiously to everyone else. I’ll also reset if I have to and completely change direction.

Any gig in South Africa.
If not that, than the equivalent of what Timmy Regisford had when The Shelter was at its peak, but not strictly focused on house. A deep, open format, soulful party full of trusting, dancing devotees open to being led in novel directions.
If not that, then Gilles Peterson’s Worldwide Festival.
“5/5 stars! DJ Stylus and the DJ D-Mac and Associates team gave us more than we asked for. We wanted a fun, energetic dance party at our wedding and they went over and above. We provided a list of songs for ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and reception, however we encouraged the team to use their professionalism/creativity to go above and beyond our suggestions. They also understand, only after 2-3 short phone calls exactly what we needed - so were low maintenance vendors. We had many guests say that they ‘couldn't leave the dance floor’ cause they were having such a good time. Thank you so much!”
