Around every corner is a great story waiting to be discovered. The same can be said for DJ Izzy, or just ‘Izzy’ – an up-and-coming house producer and DJ residing in Dallas, Texas. 

In his humble beginnings, Izzy began his foray into the music scene at the age 13 while in junior high. He dabbled in a mix of crafts including rapping, producing and songwriting, and even released a couple of hip-hop singles while he was in school. Unfortunately due to other commitments, his mix tape never reached completion. 

By his junior year in high school, EDM began to take off and artists like Tiesto and David Guetta caught his ear. He immersed himself into the genre, learning the art form and began to craft his own blend of EDM/Pop singles. By 2009, he already had a few tunes under his belt and the attention he garnered from his peers gave him the motivation to stick at it.

Izzy enrolled in the University of North Texas where he would meet a bunch of likeminded producers, opening up a myriad of doorways to collaborations. After graduating, he signed up to DFW DJ School to further his craft and has since graduated from there as well.

His sound is a versatile blend of classic, retro house and contemporary EDM bangers, an unmistakable mix of styles that is guaranteed to set dancefloors alight. Izzy’s stage presence is rivalled only by his track selection, and the past couple of years has witnessed him slay nightclubs across the state. 

During his downtime, he continues to hone his production skills in the studio, while ghostwriting tracks for various artists. He is currently preparing for a nationwide tour this summer with local Dallas Hip-Hop artist, Moses Uvere, where you can expect to see him playing in a club near you.

I'm a techno/house producer and DJ from Edinburg, Texas.  I'm a teacher by day and a producer/dj by night. I began my musical journey at the age of 10 when I received my first guitar. I've immersed myself in music ever since. From metal bands, to melodic techno, I love all music that moves me. My goal is to do the same to you with my music and DJ sets.
