DJ CASE, from Boston, came onto the scene in 1994 at the age of 16. Having always had the love for music, that year CASE decided to purchase his firs pair of (used) turntables and mixer. He acquired his skills by attending local parties during the weekends, and by studying how DJs did their thing. He first began DJ’ing House music, but always had an interest in Hip-Hop, so he began to listen to radio and mixtape DJ's that, in the long run, started to influence him. After recording their shows, and collecting their mixtapes, CASE began to practice his skills by mimicking those he listened to, and whose mixes he collected. Among those influential to him are DJs Funkmaster Flex, Tony Touch, Ron G, Kid Capri, and DooWop, just to name a few. In 1995, he joined Boston’s DJ Crew, Super Plus Movement, founded by DJ Super Duke. Many wonder what CASE stands for, and many have asked: "Why the name CASE?" So his reply is: "It's an acronym which spells out the following: 'Cause All (my) Skills (are) Essential.' My skills are what define who I am in this business."
In 1997, CASE got his first taste of on-air entertainment @ WRBB 104.9 FM, Northeastern University's college radio station. While attending N.U. from 1996-1999, CASE, and the Super Plus Movement team, took over the airwaves every Thursday and Friday night by bringing Northeastern, and Boston, one of the hottest Hip-Hop shows at the time.
CASE, along with a strong team of DJs, Super Plus Movement, has helped refine the Urban (Hip-Hop, Dancehall, R&B) and Latin scene in Boston. These long time friends and partners in the "Super Plus Crew" include DJ Super Duke, DJ Shorty, DJ Milz, DJ Dres, DJ Jaz (Jamn 94.5 FM), DJ Andy Panty, DJ Nesty, DJ T-Roc, DJ Surg, and DJ Intense. CASE is now primarily a Top-40/Hip-Hop DJ who is known to incorporate blends and scratches into his live performances, and is also known for incorporating the latest and greatest in House, Electro, Rock, Reggae, and Reggaeton into his routines. He aims to always keep the crowd satisfied everywhere he goes, whether it be currently at 33 Lounge on Wednesdays, or at past events like Friday nights @ Roxy Boston, Saturday Nights @ High Bar/ARIA/Roxy Boston, Under 21 Nights @ The Palace, Felt Nightclub, College Campuses, Concerts (which include Don Omar, Wisin Y Yandel, and many others), and Radio. DJ CASE 's a true 'Mixologist', that keeps it real when it comes to getting the party started, and always focuses in one thing when performing: Keeping the crowd satisfied.
In 2005, DJ CASE was nominated as “Club DJ of 2005” by the Mass Industry Committee, an elite recognition for his hard work in the Boston club scene. Plus, his musical has taken him from Boston to NY: Jet Set Cafe, and to California: Club Ice (Hollywood) & Sevilla Lounge (SD). CASE, representing The Commissioners, Future Star DJ’s, and Super Plus Movement, is currently helping keep the party atmosphere alive in Boston by doing what he does best. Remember to keep your eyes and ears open because DJ CASE's focus is one and only: “To Take Over YOUR Scene!" |
