My name is Reza Karkouti and I am just a 50 year old single father of two young beautiful kids who got inspired by the European and Latin underground tech house  and I only dj at home.  

This music saved me during an extremely difficult time in my life and the underground community showered me with so much love and inspiration to not only thrive again in my life but to DJ this underground music to inspire others to fall in love with it like I did.  

All your comments on @SoundCloud means the world to me 😭😭😭🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

This has nothing to do with me and everything to do with the music and the producers who have dedicated their lives producing these amazing tracks so I can DJ them and share their gift with the world. And I always feel honored when I play these tracks from these producers which most of them are my friends. I am just the messenger and nothing more.

My heart and soul is in international underground tech house aka European & Latin underground tech house.  These tracks have a very distinct percussion & highs signature not found in any other genre.  These tracks are impossible to find with average of 500 hits on youtube and a big hit being around 1.5k hits on youtube.  Only Djs and fans of this underground community know and understand this music.  

This music is not made for clubs with table service and VIP lines,....it's made purely for music lovers.  In this underground community the Djs and producers promote each other more than the fans.   I hope I inspire you to open up your heart and ears to this very rare and beautiful hypnotic music called European & Latin Tech House.  

DJing is not about gigs and glamour shots. 

Music is about connecting with that one soul in the back of the room and inspiring him to be a better human being. ♥️♥️♥️

Thank you for all your support and I love each and every one of you 🫶

Esta música me salvó durante un momento extremadamente difícil de mi vida y la comunidad underground me colmó de tanto amor e inspiración no solo para prosperar de nuevo en mi vida, sino también para pinchar esta música underground para inspirar a otros a enamorarse de ella como yo. .

Ahora dediqué mi vida a ser el mejor DJ posible y a difundir el sonido y el amor por el tech house clandestino queriendo inspirar a otros a amar esta música eufórica como yo ♥️♥️♥️

Todos sus comentarios en @SoundCloud significan mucho para mí 😭😭😭🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Esto no tiene nada que ver conmigo y tiene todo que ver con la música y los productores que han dedicado sus vidas a producir estas increíbles pistas para que yo pueda pincharlas y compartir su regalo con el mundo. Y siempre me siento honrado cuando toco estas pistas de estos productores, la mayoría de los cuales son mis amigos. Solo soy el mensajero y nada más.

Mi corazón y mi alma están en el tech house underground internacional, también conocido como tech house underground europeo y latino. Estas pistas tienen una firma de percusión y agudos muy distinta que no se encuentra en ningún otro género. Estas pistas son imposibles de encontrar con un promedio de 500 visitas en youtube y un gran éxito de alrededor de 1,500 visitas en youtube. Solo los Djs y fans de esta comunidad underground conocen y entienden esta música.

Esta música no está hecha para clubes con servicio de mesa y filas VIP,... está hecha puramente para amantes de la música. En esta comunidad underground los Djs y productores se promocionan más unos a otros que a los fans. Espero inspirarte para que abras tu corazón y tu alma a esta música hipnótica muy rara y hermosa llamada European & Latin Tech House.

Ser DJ no se trata de conciertos y tomas de glamour.

La música se trata de conectarse con esa alma en el fondo de la sala e inspirarlo a ser un mejor ser humano. ♥️♥️♥️

Gracias por todo su apoyo y los amo a todos y cada uno de ustedes 🫶

Westend has emerged as one of house music's most promising artists. The New York native's ever-expanding sonic footprint was instrumental in drafting the blueprint for the sound of modern tech house and helped usher in an era that has seen American artists once again push to the forefront of dance music culture.

As a teenager during the blog house era, he fell in love with the sounds of artists like MSTRKRFT, The Bloody Beetroots, and Justice. Compelled to replicate those groundbreaking sounds, he dove head first into production classes at the Bronx High School of Science, the alma mater of famed synth engineer Robert Moog. 

His ability to remain on the leading edge while staying true to the roots of house music has created peak dancefloor moments for ravers across the globe and led to releases on esteemed imprints like Repopulate Mars, Insomniac, Armada, and D4 D4NCE. As one of Beatport's top ten best-selling tech house producers, hit records like 2021's "Jumpin'"—with fellow New Yorker CID—have not only spent weeks dominating the top of the charts, they've landed into the crates of MK, Diplo, Lee Foss, John Summit, and Sonny Fodera. 

Each passing year brings breakthrough moments. In 2022 he collaborated with Latin house kingpin, HUGEL, and Cumbiafrica on "Aguila," which sat in the top ten for staggering eight weeks. In 2023 he collaborated with longtime friend Noizu on the rave-tinged anthem "Push To Start," which quickly rocketed to peak positions on the tech house and overall chart.

And while he continues to climb the charts, he's also been a faithful steward of the producer community leading the Kick and Bass network, where he shares his vast production knowledge with several hundred budding producers. 

Beyond his production prowess, Westend crisscrosses the country, regularly performing at festivals and clubs from EDC and CRSSD to Shambhala and The Brooklyn Mirage. In 2023 he made his first forays onto the international scene with gigs in Liverpool and a coveted slot on Insomniac's kineticFIELD at EDC Mexico.

Westend's creativity is constantly expanding. His plans for the coming year include launching his label in late 2023 and embarking on his first solo headline tour. His remarkable journey from throwing micro-raves for New York high schoolers to headlining festival stages exemplifies how the DIY spirit of dance music continues to permeate the culture.
