Here's a twist, a song I co-wrote / produced with Jay Kuo in 2010 for the Trevor Project and "It Gets Better" campaign. Here's a link to the video and the song is available on iTunes - hope you like it!

Weekend Warm Up

PLEASE LISTEN TO AND 'LIKE' THIS MIX! That is, if you genuinely enjoy it. 

I'm starting my career as a DJ and working my ass off, which includes training at the DUBSPOT academy in NYC and submitting mixes to competitions such as this. GIVE ME YOUR FEEDBACK, whether you love or hate it. I've mixed this live as if I was playing for an actual crowd. It starts with vocal, progressive house tracks and dives in to some darker, less commercial tech-house beats (which I love!) with some familiar samples thrown in.

My set list includes some amazing artists, producers and DJ's to whom I'm pumped to introduce you!

MATINÉE Las Vegas Festival 2013: DJ Contest - DJ BLARE

This track hit No. 1 on the French Billboard dance chart in 2000 - I can't believe that was 13 years ago (and that my stage name was Ken Curtis)! It was produced by DJ Olivier Verse. Anyway, I thought it would be fun to give you an idea of some of my past projects and sounds.

Give Me Your Time

Here's another throwback to my time in France producing music with DJ Olivier Verse. I wrote and performed this song which was our second title on the EP we released in 2000.

I Got Music

Thanks for following! I'm working on new music and mixes - stay tuned! Music has been my life's passion. I've been singing since before I could speak and began writing music in high school. In 1997, I moved to France where I had the fortune of working with an amazing DJ / Producer with whom I had a number one dance single in 2000 and who's remained my inspiration as i work to make a name for myself in NYC and beyond.
