Being in love with music his whole life, Jay joined the entertainment scene, in 2004, and became known as DJ Nexus. Intrigued with spinning records and making crowds of people dance, he taught himself how to blend and mix tracks. From listening to radio shows and numerous DJ Mixtapes, he further mastered this craft and was able to mix smoother, cut and MC. Growing up in a predominately popular Hiphop and Reggae environment, Nexus naturally embraced the culture and started DJ’ing local house and college dorm parties.

n 2005, Nexus co-founded Virtual Vibes Sound, a local DJ crew that consisted some of his close friends. Virtual Vibes went on to host a few parties in Boston and at colleges. Nexus was motivated to further his DJ career and went on to make a name for himself at UMass Amherst, in order to pursue his passion for event planning.

In 2006, Nexus rocked the college scene and slowly gained a fan base which led him to dominate the college market, especially in Western Massachusetts. With his roots lying in Boston, he traveled back and forth to do special events and college parties. Loving the feeling of entertaining hundreds of people, Nexus hosted several sell-out parties and events. This familiarized him with all aspects of the entertainment business.

As a Journalism major in college with a focus on media broadcast, in 2008, Nexus received an opportunity to intern at the local urban radio station, Big City 101.3. He worked one on one with some of Boston’s most talented DJ’s and On-Air personalities, who then motivated him to take his DJ lifestyle to the next level. That same year, he started his own college station, Virtual Vibes Radio.

After graduating college in 2009, Nexus was invited to join a popular Boston DJ crew, Super Plus Movement. He accepted and began to work alongside a talented group of DJ’s who were of different ages and had distinct styles, and yet shared a common love, music!

In 2012, Nexus career began to rise to new heights by making some exciting decisions. First he teamed up with one of Boston’s top DJ’s, and creating an exclusive DJ crew called “The Untouchables”. Second, with the the ball rolling he took it upon himself to create his own promotion & marketing company called Nexlevel Lifestyle. He realized that DJ’s in the industry are some of the biggest promoters in the market so he went and created an additional identity.

In March of 2013, Nexus received a surprising Supra Clothing & Footwear sponsorship.

DJ Nexus coined the line “LETS MOVE!” as he continues to provide a unique performance to his audience.
