Known for his ability to renew classic hits and blend them with contemporary hits, DJ Defiance has created a modern fusion of DJing that is truly unique. Bridging the gap between old-school turntablism and new-school controllerism, he utilizes techniques and styles that have never been seen together. By selectively using unique music styles and mixing tricks and skills, he creates an innovative style that is musically tasteful and enhancing. DJ Defiance leaves no genre untouched; Top 40, Hip-Hop, Country, EDM, and Throwbacks. Apart from his unique open format, he also performs for special events including the TimeWarp Events, Decades Parties, University Formals, and plenty of other special events.
DJ Defiance does not hesitate to hype up the crowd and work the microphone, though he allows the music to create the immensity of the atmosphere. In this respect, the crowd knows the DJ is on their level of fun, but not annoying them at the same time!
While well known for his DJing skill and ability, he also holds degrees in business administration and project management, meaning that the business aspect of DJing is always handled with the highest caliber of professionalism. This is a skill and desired attribute that is commonly overlooked by hiring coordinators. DJ Defiance provides a ‘perfect storm’ for your venue or gig-- professionalism behind the scenes and a high-class DJ performance pumping through the speakers.
