Mr Doris is something of an anomaly in music. A humbling example of what it takes to truly succeed within the framework of multiple fields. With a steadfast work ethic, an obsessively extensive vinyl library and the willingness to pursue the full extents of his roots (Latin, Soul and Jazz), foundation (Funk/Hip-Hop) and future (Electronic/Dance music) without any restraints.

His unique style has seen Mr Doris tour the globe on a regular basis as well as hold down respected residencies for brands such as Defected, Glitterbox, Magic Door (UK/Croatia), Pacha, Space and his most recent tenure at Hï Ibiza.
Production wise, Mr Doris has worked with reggae legend Sizzla, king of beats Nightmares On Wax, musical maestros Groove Armada and jazz greats The Baker Brothers while his tracks have recently been championed by Red Bull and Seth Troxler in promotional campaigns.

When not in the studio or in the booth, Mr Doris is musical director of After Dark (hosting Space’s famous Sunset Terrace for Carl Cox plus many events around the world), Manumission’s project at Lio Ibiza, The Social London (bringing live funk & soul bands to the nations capital), The Vicar’s Picnic & Back of Beyond festivals and world renowned beach restaurant El Chiringuito (Ibiza, Marbella and Dubai).

Mr Doris is as comfortable playing a chilled Balearic set as he is moving the masses on the dance floor or curating a catwalk. Whatever the venue, clientele or time of day, he can truly adapt his sound to fit the listener.

It is this versatility that sees Mr Doris in constant demand around the world.

Pure Blend was formed in Long Valley, NJ in December 2011.  The four members, each coming from different musical backgrounds, instantly clicked with one another.  Since then, they have focused on creating funky, hard-rocking, dance-inducing original music.  Each unique live performance leaves both fans and audiences alike craving more, in wonder of what this eccentric, eclectic group will throw at them next.  They now look to the horizon, with dreams of delivering their sound, consisting of such styles as jazz, rock, funk, and more to audiences extending past their homeland - so get your dancing shoes on, because Pure Blend is gonna rock your socks off.

The award winning Itchy & Skratchy Djs combine their turntable skills and individual musical styles to create a unique dancefloor experience. An inventive genre-bending mix of Glitch Hop, Breakbeats and Drum & Bass builds on the 90’s Hip Hop running through the heart of their inspiration. Their live show is a feast for the eyes and feet, as they mix, cut and scratch over 4 turntables with such energy and enthusiasm that their vibe is contagious!
