This is a mix I did for Disney Cruise Lines "Halloween on the High Seas". A month long celebration on the ship, leading up to Halloween. Some of the songs were chosen by Disney of course, while others were my interpretation of Spooky Halloween tracks. This is great to get you and your kids in the mood for Halloween while passing out candy. Enjoy!

Disney's Halloween On The High Seas Mix

Back in August of this year Surge Nights and Bud Light had a Local Mixmaster Competition. It consisted of 4 rounds 3 different clubs and about 13 DJ’s who competed. Each DJ got 15 minutes and a list of songs we could NOT play. Each DJ could only play a song ONCE and if another DJ played a song that had already been played they were deducted points. I made the Final Four and I was able to re-record 2 rounds of my 15-minute sets Check ‘em out and enjoy!

CORNFLAKES

This is a quick mix in honor of the rain we got this past weekend in AZ. We don't get a lot of it out here in the desert so when we do, we think it's a big deal. Enjoy!

Dont Sweat The Hole In The Speaker (Akshen Blend-Edit)

These edits were made for my shows on Disney Cruise Lines Ship The Disney "Dream". They were made for the working Mix-show DJ in mind, so you can get in and out of the track and give your audience just a little taste of the hit without any overkill. All tracks are radio friendly and literally Disney tested and approved. Enjoy!

Fist Pump Jump Jump (DJ Akshen Edit)

This is a Mashup or Blend if you will, that I usually do live at shows. It consists of The Jackson 5's "I Want You Back" and Othello & Vajra's nka (Chris Karns) "Same Team Suckas". It Starts at :20 after the intro. Enjoy!

I Want You Back (Akshen Blend)

This is a Funky Scratch Blend of the ever so popular Indie Pop track Latch by Disclosure feat. Sam Smith and my favorite track off of DJ Qbert's new album Extraterrestria/GalaXXXain called Disco Nap feat. A-trak, Quazr, and Yoga Frog. Enjoy!

Shout! (DJ Akshen Quick Hit Edit)

Jay Valdez better known as DJ Akshen has over two decades of DJ experience. He started out by DJing his older brothers High School Dances when he was in the 7th grade and did his first club gig before he was of legal age! He has been blending multiple genres of music in his sets before the term mash-up even existed. This has proven to be the key ingredient to his unique signature and to attracting bigger, more diverse crowds. 

He continues to perform at some of the hottest nightspots across the country, overseas, and on the seas. He is a special guest DJ for Disney Cruise Lines and has played in several countries from London to the Bahamas. Through seamless mixes and an amazing sense of selection, he can transform any venue whether a club, live stage, bar, or even the deck of a cruise ship, into an all-night party!

So, if you want the complete package just ask for, lights, camera...
