Hi Everyone . I like to introduce myself to all music lovers: DJBEAR a.k.a DJBERKAND “Purveyor of deep, infectious dance grooves and a feel-good atmosphere.” That’s how Berkand describes himself as a DJ. Never afraid to go too deep, his emotive musical selections are his own therapy. Having grown up on his father’s eclectic combination of Rock N Roll music (Elvis Presley,The Beatles), European pop stars (Mina, Julio Iglesias, Adriano Celentano), synth-infused 80s music (Depeche Mode, Gary Numan)… all which became infused with his own love for both disco, jazz and soft rock music, Berkand ended up with quite a mixed spectrum of musical influence. Today, this translates into sets where he picks apart and infuses together all the pieces of this music that he loves best: beautiful synth work, ethereal backdrops, brooding basslines, and occasional vocal hooks… all on top of a pronounced foot-shuffling house beat. A very active member of Deep House community, Berkand is no stranger to the ups-and-downs of a small-town music scene. Though he loves playing in nightclubs, patios and special events, his love for music goes beyond the spectrum of mixing tunes. As a producer, amateur pianist, and promoter, he has found plenty of ways to express himself musically. He is also a resident Dj at both; http://www.radiodeepsound.com https://www.house-mixes.com/profile … “For me, it’s all about mood and a deep, hypnotic groove… playing those tracks that get you tapping your feet and nodding your head without you realizing it, regardless of genre, tempo, style, or release date. “

When you’re born with music circulating your veins, it invades and directs the courses of your life; so is the biography of 46-year-old Canadian DJ/Producer, DeGiacinto. Growing up in Ontario, Canada afforded him many opportunities to dedicate his life to music. From a budding age, the multi-faceted DJ learned to play guitar, violin, and flute. At age 16, he made advances playing at a local club in Cornwall, Ontario. The pivotal stage began when DeGiacinto became an apprentice playing at Le Houblon in Quebec. The position served as a catapult, launching his career past it’s beginning stages. Here he met crucial contacts like Pierre Tremblay, promoter and discjockey for a top radio station in Montreal. Tremblay bridged connections to larger venues and multiple learning opportunities, like performing at CKOI, the number one radio station in Montreal at the time. Equipped with an impressive resume and eager for further development of his career, the Canadian DJ moved to the colorful, lively world of Miami. The move marked a transition to the types of venues DeGiacinto began to play at. He began spinning at buoyant gay clubs, which eventually led to invitations to tour Canada and Costa Rica. He became enraptured with producing music with pulsating bass, and the energy from the crowds that followed. Today, DeGiacinto reigns in Tribal, Circuit and Progressive House genres. Creativity and inspiration are almost tangible with each set he performs. Unique to his sound are recordings from day-to-day experiences, which he then blends into his mixes, stamping his unmistakable signature on his sets. Inspiration is drawn from French classics like Edith Piaf and Charles Aznavour, as well as Mark DeMarko, Alex Acosta, Danny Verde, Ivan Gomez and Alex Ramos to name a few. These artists have motivated him in past and present to create the gems that are displayed at each of his performances. DeGiacinto’s tenacious nature allowed him to obtain a master’s degree in Digital Media in the late 90’s. He has also had the privilege of teaching college courses in Digital Media for close to eight years. Currently, he is producing steadily growing podcasts. DeGiacinto has plans to participate in popular venues like White and Winter Party in Miami, and expand his international reach.This is only beginning of his journey to discover the vastness of his musical expertise and inventiveness, and he would love your support along the way to musical prosperity. From the mouth of this alluring artist comes wise words he wishes to use to inspire his supporters: “You are never too old to make your dream become a reality. Many will try and distract and discourage you, but always remember that it is your dream and not theirs.”

United States Live in Santa Clara, Cali. Been mixing since the 80's, and had always loved to dance. Discovered House Music in late 90's, and fell in love with ever since. The reason was that House pulls from so many different genres and most of the venues I went to was always a positive and uplifting time. Music was the glue, and your status stayed outside the door. Love to mix, did the club thing ,commercial, but mixing in an underground club, bar, was more to my liking. I had to bring my game to the floor, for the dancers. I had to create the energy and flow, and loved feeling the good energy when we are all getting down and enjoying the moment together. Never mixed for the money, fame, maybe drinks, haha, hope you like some of my stuff.
