DJ SirReal, aka. Jacob Valentino when on the radio, stands out from other DJ's by being able to smoothly and stylishly incorporate the hypeness, flair, and crowd-reading abilities of a club DJ, with the scratch technique and mint-fresh mixes of a battle DJ, then top it off with the song selection, timing, and awareness of a Professional Sports/ Radio DJ. A rare thing to see in these days where the art of beatmixing is disappearing, and a true "old school" battle dj's are fading into obscurity. DJ SirReal is a perfect blend of the "old" and the "new." Fusing together Funk, Soul, Electro House, Rock, Reggae, Hip Hop and Drum & Bass, into seamless, harmonically beat mixed sets. His roots stem from all night underground techno parties in Detroit, scratching over live bands such as Kid Rock, the Howling Diablos and the Artfull Dodgers, DJing for a variety of Professional and Amateur sporting events, and competing at DJ battles all over the midwest.
DJ SirReal aka. Jacob Valentino also has a radio show and appears live every friday from 2-6 at the Motor City Casino's Radio Bar. He is also the official DJ for all the Xtreme Cagefighting Championships and the Michigan Fight League. Even with such diverse gigs, Jacob also finds the time to produce music ranging from acoustic rock to tech house, and incorporates his original work into his smooth, sexy and unique sets. His residencies include Thursdays at Sakana Sushi Lounge in Ferndale, and Fridays and Saturdays at Pulse Detroit.
DJ SirReal's current projects include the Real Action Figures with DJ Zach Daniels, and cartoonist Robert January. The project is a multi-media story that includes a mix tape using Serato Scratch Live, a comic book, and action figures. He is also always working on new battle routines, mix tapes, and production. You can find him opening for a wide range of talent such as Tom Petty, Bad Boy Bill, Kid Rock, Q-Bert, and George Clinton. Yet wherever he spins at, Jacob Valentino aka. DJ SirReal realizes its not just his job to bring the heart and soul of Detroit to the people, its a privilage and a responsibility.
