BIOGRAPHY

NY Based Dj/Producer.

In the game for the love of music. Shaman Vybez's influences stem from growing up in Spanish Harlem in the 70s as a kid with a window facing a city playground. It was that window that exposed him to the sounds of Disco and early Hip-Hop. His love for tribal and Latin/AfroBeats were the late night congas that were heard for blocks.

Eventually he moved to the Bronx in the mid eighties at the age of 13. It was soon after at 16 he discovered the nightlife and some of the Greats in NYC, Little Louie Vega, David Morales, Jellybean Benitez, Danny Tenaglia, just to name a few. Following them, he wanted more than anything to move a crowd of thousands the way they did.

Shaman got a job at Downtown Records in NYC playing the newest vinyl for the city's biggest names that came to shop. He soon started playing for the masses every weekend for 7yrs, from old school hip-hop to techno and latin.

Taking a 10yr break to raise a family but never stop listening to the music. He continued his search for great music, following some of the same Djs that gave him the bug, dancing right along with the crowds.

Shaman Vybez has now returned to his first love, making people dance. Setting his focus on producing his own original tracks for the dance floor he is embracing new talent and collaborating with Candela Music, Callejon Music, LGP and Konvict Music.

These days his sets are a mix of some of his earlier influences with a few surprises. A vibrational blend of Latin, AfroBeats,House and Funk will keep you dancing all night. If he's not in the studio creating, you can bet he's spinning for the masses this weekend.
