BIO

Like most other DJs, DJ Lex started small.  Private gigs (disc jockey shorthand for an event that's not open to the public) like weddings and baby showers marked the career of the young novice.  For DJs who've taken a different route, it's easy to write off a sweet 16 or bridal shower.  The experience gained at these events however, is essential to any DJs trade.  Dealing with desperate song requests, drunken uncles and carrying heavy equipment in and out of vehicles translates into the club world, particularly pushy club patrons and bossy owners or promoters.  And so, after 4 years of small scale events, a battle-tested Lex ventured into the club world.

In 2006, DJ Lex joined a group of DJs and soundmen under the LosTraficante.com umbrella.  As a member of an entourage, Lex observed his fellow LTP DJs work in clubs; it was this group of experiences that strengthened his desire to become a working club DJ.  A year later, Kenny Cole made arrangements to have Lex perform at a club for the first time. Lex' club debut was parlayed into a weekly club residency, no small feat in New York City clubs.  2008 brought Lex a larger, more popular venue to control: Maracas.  The Queens hotspot combines the hottest live bands with DJs like Lex and Eli.  Bigger clubs mean bigger promotion; Lex' name started to be branded in patrons' and promoters' minds alike, and he found himself being booked more and more.

Club DJing is a combination of things: talking, mixing and song selection.  The latter can prove a challenge in an era where digital formats are easily traded, and so-called exclusives hold their unshared glamour for the briefest of moments.  Classics are classics, and songs of the moment are a must.  But in an effort to keep one's sets exclusives, many DJs make personal edits of songs to play out.  Some edits are laughable, others pointless; a truly effective edit must sound good, be well produced and fit in to a set, not only for the DJ but also for the dancer.  DJ Lex' beginner edits used a program with the perjorative moniker "Virtual DJ".  Using the oft-maligned platform, he made simple reggaeton blends (placing one instrumental track together with an acapella track to make what some call a "mash-up") that worked surprisingly well.  Not limiting himself to nightclubs, Lex distributed his edits and blends on various internet forums, and as time passed his recognition grew.

Like any successful person, DJ Lex' can trace his arrival on the edit scene to a single event; his edit of Omega's "Chambonea" had many a DJ inquiring about it's origin and producer.  With the heavily requested merengue track finely edited, it found it's way into most latin DJs record boxes.  There were more edits to come: these simple and efficient edits garnered Lex a meeting with club edit heavyweight DJ Lil'JayRemix.  Skipping the dry details, DJ Lex now forms part of a powerful team on LatinRemixKings.com, the #1 website for latin edits.  

So what do you do when you're new on the scene, but heralded?  What does popularity and name recognition lead to?  Will DJ Lex start strong and finish even stronger?  Find out for yourself.
