I write for therapy/fun.  Just wanna share my music with the world

Over 20 years ago I realized I had a undeniable love for music. I took that love & passion and applied it to becoming a DJ. As with most DJs, I took over my parents stereo equipment and began using it to practice my skills. My hardwork and determination along with countless hours of practice and learning my craft has led me to appear as a guest DJ on radio shows and play at some of the Tri-State areas biggest clubs... I originally started my DJ career playing Hip-Hop & House Music. DJ’ing Hip-Hop allowed me to learn and master the turntable. Playing House Music taught me a great deal about beat matching, which is a MUST if you’re going to become a DJ. I eventually crossed over into the latin scene as it became more popular. And with the introduction of dual deck CD players, DJ’ing latin music became my forte. Bookings were slim but I had the passion for the music. Eventually was approached by Nocturnal Entertainment, a small entertainment company based in North Jersey which specialized in promotion and graphic design. CEO David Ramirez became my booking manager and the rest as we say is history. I’ve had the honor and pleasure of working in some of the biggest clubs in NJ and NYC and appearing on radio shows with some of the industry’s best DJs. In closing, there are many DJs outhere nowadays. But only a select few have the experience, skills and dedication on what it is to become a great DJ. That’s where I come in. Gabriel Escobar, I’m Baaaack!
