Every club goer knows that a wack DJ can ruin your entire night. Even more, a DJ who can't blend your favorite tracks can make your two step turn into three. BeyondRest's signature blends guarantee your vibe, in your car or at the club, remains on beat and on point. With nominations for Best Mixtape Duo from Just-O's Mixtape Awards, Best Latin Blend DJs from the Latin Urban Mix Awards, and acclaim from The Source magazine, the critics have spoken. DJs Beyond and Rest fused their talents in 1998 and have successfully dominated the mixtape scene ever since. BeyondRest has managed to maintain their street credibility by consistently putting out the hottest mixtapes with the latest in Hip-Hop, R&B, and Reggaeton. With mixtapes hosted by today's biggest artists, BeyondRest has boasted their skills with the help of Neyo,Donell Jones, Black Butterfly and Tony Yayo.But it hasn't always been sweet. BeyondRest can now laugh at early memories of dragging crates to community events and house parties, only to find out their equipment had malfunctioned. Luckily, releasing their first mixtape wasn't as riddled with mishaps, in fact BeyondRest is still pleased with their first CD of blends because it reflects their talent. Since its release in early 2003, BeyondRest's vision of the game changed and they decided to conquer the mixtape market, developing a loyal fan base. In fact, people now seek them out. From mom and pop stores, to exclusive international locations including France and Japan, BeyondRest's distribution is so serious that they're not even aware of all of the venues they're in. Having released over 73 mixtapes in the last 2 years, BeyondRest's dedication and perseverance is incomparable.And the DJs that the streets have come to love from their mixtapes, are now gracing the booths of the hottest New York clubs and getting play in major circles. From a guest spot on BET's Rap City and recognition on MTV.com's Mixtape Mondays, BeyondRest's hold on the city is tightening. And they're just as good in the club as they are in the studio. With keen business knowledge and an overpowering ambition, this unique team has their fingers on the pulse of what's hot and what people want to hear. Bigger than getting a party hyped, which many DJs can do, is Beyond Rest's ability to compel these same partyhoppers to approach them and hit up their website, giving them props for their hustle and love of music. "From the strength of many comes the force of one. BeyondRest is more then two names, it's a movement, with an army pushing it"From radio to mixtape DJs, BeyondRest emulates pioneers at every level from Funkmaster Flex and Kid Capri to Ron G, Tony Touch, Silva Sir-Fa and Clue. But since today's average DJ simply plays what's usually heard on the radio, it's hard to pinpoint a style, but BeyondRest scratches,blends, and gets the party hyped with their signature "Beyooooond Rest!" so you'll know them when you hear them. Relentless and focused, BeyondRest has earned their spot in New York's competitive club scene,worked New York City's Puerto Rican and Dominican Day parades for the past five years, collaborated with major clothing designers such as Azzure Jeans, secured sponsorships with Red Bull and Gilyard clothing line, and consistently drops at least 30 mixtapes a year.On the come up from the Lower East Side of New York City Manhattan,BeyondRest is making waves beyond the Big Apple, to the rest of the world, relentlessly mixing popular vocals and beats making you wonder why the radio version doesn't sound quite as good.
