VITUS CREW

Since '97 and going strong!

About Me


It was the mid-90's in NYC....the idea of "rave" was still new and freshly budded. Young adults everywhere were getting introduced to this new idea of raving, or dancing all night and experiencing a world where everyone was happy to be alive, courteous to others, and the music united all as one. These raves, or parties would give people a place to escape to so they could get away from a cold harsh world and experience an underground utopia. They would party outdoors for free in parks and under bridges, and even the cops would hang out and enjoy the atmosphere with everyone. Paid events would be held at clubs, armories, and even gymnasiums. These events would bring together people from all walks of life, and the DJs would spin records that were fresh to the ears and enlightening to the soul. Many to this day find themselves trying to recreate those moments, even if not physically, but mentally through the music. But why recreate? Why aren't we still experiencing these magical gatherings? Well because nothing lasts forever. Too many people caught on, and the media and government stepped in and took one small facet of the rave community, the drugs, and decided that these events were a haven for debauchery and illegal activity, instead of respecting it for what it was - musical bliss. Plus you have the promoters these days only throwing parties for the money, and the DJs that take up spinning to get fame. Things have definitely changed. Raves used to be a place where people could bond with others and be a part of a community where they weren't judged and could express themselves freely through dance, speech, and music. And a few bad apples may have caused things to change, but the true heads know the real meaning of "rave" and that's what keeps us going back for more.
Vitus Productions is a crew based on these ideals. Its founder, Jen Mas, started throwing events in 1997 under other monickers (Genesis, United We Stand, One Nation) and experienced the rave community at its best and watched its decline as well. In 1999 all the area promoters basically knew that what once was had dissipated, and it was time to move on and try new strategies at throwing parties. It was during that time that Jen decided to take her past party-throwing experiences and form a new crew, one she would start from scratch, in order to keep the torch lit and the scene alive in NYC. Now, after all these years, this crew has grown and flourished and is comprised of top-notch artists that are pure heart and soul. Together they continue to throw memorable electronic music events for all to share in, and they take pride in doing this for the love, not the money.
