DJ BONZAI @ HQ Revel, Atlantic City - DJ EXPO Closing Set for DJ CHACHI.  8/11/13

For the past 12 years, The Sullivan Room has been a staple in the NYC's underground house music scene.  Sullivan Room gave a home and a Family to many of todays DJ's and Party Enthusiasts.  One of the only true music venues where you can be yourself.  No Top 40's.  No dress code.  No door Hassel.   No Bottle B*llshit.  

Sullivan Room will always be my 2nd Home.  I was one of the first Dj's to perform there for the past 12 years and it is suitably my humble honor that I was chosen to be the very last to perform before they Closed there doors FOREVER.   To our Sullivan Room Family,  Here's to the last 12 years of AMAZING MUSIC, GREAT TIMES, AN AMAZING FAMILY,  & ETERNAL MEMORIES.  The Venue will be deeply missed but the party will never stop.  Onto the Next Chapters of our Lives.  Here is to you.  Cheers.

Dj BONZAI - EXCLUSIVE GODZILLA GRADE ELECTRO MIX

Its has been over 16 glorious years that I have been djing.  Over 16 years ago my brother Ara aka Agent Orange took me under his wing and fined tuned my turntable skills and showed me how to hold my own on the wheels of steel.  16 glorious years that i have shared my passion for Music with you on thee best dancefloors alongside thee best djs.

Now 16 years later...My brother Ara and I start the new chapter in our lives.  Its time for an upgrade.  I've always dreamed of making the music that makes your body move.  I've always wanted to express myself through Music the way my favorite artists do.  I've honestly never taken djing or production seriously until now...I realized this is our destiny.   This is why we've been here for so long.  We belong here...The dancefloor is our home.  And you beautiful, loyal people are our family.  We have poured our time, heart and soul into producing our first full fledged original production for you.  

Sincerely from the bottom of our hearts thank you for your love and support.  We are nothing without you.  Our first original is dedicated to you..our heart.  We now present ..."SOUL ON FIRE".  Enjoy.
