FIRE KEEP ON BURNING!

About Me

Mark your calendars party freaks, because on Thursday, November 20th, Love On The Run welcomes rare vinyl dealer/collector and DJ Jason Lev to APT in NYC, for a night of deep Soul, Boogie and Disco HEAT. From classics to obscurities, we are going to keep the vinyl burning all night at this NYC edition of Sound Of Gold.LOVE ON THE RUN'S DEEP DISCO, FUNK & BOOGIE MIXES!And finally exclusively to Million Dollar Disco "LOVE KEEPS GETTING BETTER: FIRE KEEP ON BURNING 2", a chock full of fired up disco and modern dancer firecrackers!Last but not least, here is the disco-rap-roller-boogie-punk-funk mix I did for our friends at Acapulco Gold: ENJOY!
I've been DJ'ing and record collecting for approximately 15 years. I can be heard playing anything from hip-hop to obscure funk 7"s from Jamaica, punk funk, soul disco 12"s, etc etc etc. In the mid 90s I had a night some of you may have attended called "Hot Fudge Sundays" that ran for a couple of years that attracted everyone from local party people, to having us host larger events like the afterparty for U2. I've also DJ'd larger venues in NYC over the years, and most notably the massive Bohemian Beer Garden BBQ that had over 1,000 people in attendance a couple of years ago. I can currently be found DJ'ing various one-offs around town, just check my DJ schedule below. I also have some music to be released in the pipeline, and I am up to the usual party DJ'ing, as well as coordinating music for fashion shows. You can contact me for booking here if you would like, and I can put you in contact with my management company. See you at the next party

My Interests

I love to edit and make music, DJ and throw parties, drink wine, I love to laugh, and I am lucky enough to have the best wife in the world! I love my family here and abroad, and love my cultural background as well as being a native New Yorker. I also love taking the day off from work and sleeping in, and I obviously enjoy digging up old records!!

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who is deep into music, and who is decent enough to at least send me a message. It can be about anything, how you found my page. Maybe you like the same music I do. Maybe you think I have cute friends, so you want to use me just to get close to them. I'm even cool with that. Just write something, otherwise I'm thinking all my friend requests lately are just annoying spam, so I've just been denying everyone in sight.

Music:

I focus on digging up old disco joints, but I am totally into "hip hop disco soul funk dub reggae salsa boogaloo detroit techno deep house punk funk boogie breakbeat brazilian pop psych rare"

Movies:

Breathless, City Of God, French Connection, David Lynch stuff, Bladerunner, Raising Victor Vargas, Rockers, Maria Full Of Grace, Wes Anderson stuff, Garden State, Pedro Almadovar stuff, Empire Strikes Back, Round Midnight, Mad Max & The Road Warrior!

Television:

Twin Peaks

Books:

Please Kill Me, Miles Davis Autobiography, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep, Deep Thoughts by Jack Handy, The Onion Book

Heroes:

My mom
