Dj Ecks

Growing up in New Britain, Connecticut, a Native of Washington Heights, New York, DJ EcKs started spinning alongside his Uncles with vinyl cuts of fresh Old School Hip Hop, learning to beat match on worn out belt driven turntables. 

A child born of Dominican Natives, rooted in a family with long and deep ties to their home island, EcKs grew up listening to cultural traditions like Meringue, Salsa, and Latin Jazz. It was no surprise to learn at the age of 6, when he was handed the Trumpet, he excelled. Influenced by Miles Davis and Roy Ayers records, EcKs eventually grew to receive outstanding training and rewards for his efforts. 

With a Mama moving and grooving to Disco through his childhood, his spinning was opened to a new genre, House. With DJs like Little Louie Vega, Masters at Work, Miguel Migs, and Mark Farina blowing up the scene, EcKs was moved to bring his island culture, smooth style and sexy energy to the table. 

Not big on scratching, EcKs blends beats seamlessly to keep your body moving non stop. He pays attention to the energy flow of his crowd as he pushes to provide an electric ambiance, as well as spiritual movement. 

This is his passion. And it shows.
