Music lover and Entertainer: Mike Katz / DJ Vertx was turned onto the party circuit while it was in its largest movement - the late nineties. He first started organizing and hosting rave-themed events in mid 2001, starting off with a fully versatile line up, and eventually focused his interest and time on more particular styles, splitting his love of music between two separate themes. One being the ever-growing Drum-n-Bass and Heavy-Jungle oriented genres with their addictive rolling baselines, anthems, and dark fast paced styles. The second and more commonly played tunes contain a full collection of all forms of Hip-Hop spiced with some Dance-Hall and Reggae. Vertx gradually found himself often manipulating all of the above forms of music together and taught himself how to read a crowd in order to build a vibe that left people always wanting to come back and hear more. Through much admiration and respect for the scene and those in it Vertx continues hosting and playing events on a regular basis, focusing not only on the New York Metro areas of Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, and Long Island, but is currently touring the country sponsored by Captain Morgan liquor.Previously featured on Demostreams.com (now defunct), the founder of UNDERSTANDINC (NYC) NO DRAMA STATESIDE and NO DRAMA WORLDWIDE as well as 1LEVELUP Marketing, Vertx has been sponsored by BEWILD.com along with SOBE ADRENALINE energy drinks and most currently Captain Morgan’s.
