About Me

Jay Shok - From his humble beginnings in 1999, Jay has stood out by fine tuning his skills, accepting nothing but perfection, while amassing his vast record collection of nothing but the finest breaks & house the world has to offer. This man doesn't just play breaks, he IS breaks. B-Boys and B-Girls alike, both on the floor and on the decks be prepared to be broken by the DJ Jay Shok.
GENERATE YOUR OWN WORLD!
_______BIO: Jay Shok is a 29 year old Dj & Promoter. Making mixed tapes as a child and dancing as a teenager, djing just seemed like the next logical step for this music lover. He has always said it's about the emotion of the music that produces the energy in the people and the energy of the people is what feeds the dj. By watching dj's like Jeff Heart, Dave Mass, Venom, Dj Irene, Circuit Breaker, Mike Myers, Frankie Bones, MindBender, Mr. Rob, and Nigel Richards manipulate the crowd with the music inspired him to really care about every mix. So first learning how to mix jungle and jump up with dj Ixia, spending hours playin techno, house and breaks with dj Nok, and cuttin the breaks with dj Andee he learned how to mix from genre to genre smoothly taking the crowd on a personal journey thru sound and energy. Dj Shok took the high energy feeling he loves so much and started bringing it to parties such as Control The Lights, Kickin It Lake Side, and Point Pleasant now continues to bring the breaks and freestyle flavor for the last five years to clubs such as Studio 6, Deco, Emerald City, and Club Tru just to name a few. He has recently been heard bringing the grooves of house and techno back into his high energy sets. Also dont be suprised if you here some remixes of his childhood favorites in his CDs and live mixes. So drop all the worries and problems for the night and just enjoying the energy thru the music.
Since dj Vibe moved to vegas in 2004 Jay has been heading up Light It Up Productions/Recordings with the help of dj Jon Anthony. Since taking control of Light It Up we have expanded to a 13 dj roster, continuing to add new talent and partners with similar interests and goals. This year Jay has also started working closely in partnership with Mickey of TRU SKOOL PRODUCTIONS in a continuing effort to help keep the philly scene alive and bringing good energy to the masses. Jay has been dealing with Nocturnal productions, the Kontrol Freaks, VIPhookup.com, High Energy Events and Aurora Borealis productions for years because they share a similar belief in good vibes and positivity thru music. He recently has been collaborating with like minded people all over the country including the likes of; Headcase Recordings, Wikid Lil Dolls, 114, Hope Benefits, Equal Level Recordings, Defcon Crew, HardBazzFusion.com, 215 Radio, downshiftradio.com, and gremlinradio.com in the hope for unity thru out. He also recently has been added to the TOOWUNPHYVE and Sound Alliance labels. SO ALWAYS SUPPORT THE LOCAL TALENT AND CREWS SINCE WE ONLY DO IT FOR YOU:)
____________ ME: I love having fun. Period. What am I about? Parting without the additudes. Just meeting new people and believing in what started it all the common belief in P.L.U.R. Peace Love Unity and Respect. Does anyone still remember in that? Just dropping all the worries and problems even if only for the night and just enjoying the vibe thru the music. I always try to remember what Karma is gonna do to me or for me in the end. No Worrys right. Anyway I've been dealing with Nocturnal productions, the Kontrol Freaks, Light it up productions, High Energy Events and Aurora Borealis productions for the last couple of years because they share the similar belief in good vibes. Recently I've been dealing with viphookup.com and downshiftradio.com and just got added to the TOOWUNPHYVE and Sound Alliance labels SO ALWAYS SUPPORT THE LOCAL TALENT:)

Do It For Fun Or Not At AllI mostly mix florida breaks, electro, house, progressive, trance + house remixes. But I love all styles of music and love dancing to good hard house like Jeff Heart's Hard as House album. I'm always moving genres and changing things up on people trying to bring them something they don't realize they want. Sounds like?.............. LIKE NOBODY YOU EVER HEARD BEFORE!
