About Me


Carlos "After Dark" Berrios began as an editor back when editing was considered an art form. After having learned his craft with a razor blade and an edit block, he and Omar Santana formed "The Hit Squad" and they spent many sleepless nights and weekends working on records for both major and indie labels. They spent many hours creating new editing styles. With a growing reputation in the underground as a beat master, Carlos was asked to DJ at the mammoth Queens Arena "Lamour East". With the largest stage in New York, Lamour's became the venue for the most memorable performances by the best of the best. Soon after, Carlos produced his first two records, "Out Of Control" by Corina, which was penned by Brooklyn's own Frankie Bones, followed by Jasmin's "On The Loose". Carlos then signed to Profile Records as the artist "Only In The Dark" and released his first single "Make Noise", which featured first time vocalist Lisette Melendez. Scoring hit after hit from the start Carlos then got Lisette signed to Russell Simmon's RAL/Colombia label through the Bronx's own Fever Records and scored his first Top 40 hit with his then revolutionary production of "Together Forever". Written by Franc. Reyes, and Frankie Cutlass, this record was credited with rejuvenating the pop dance music scene and led the way to Corina's "Temptation" for Atco Records. A single that found it's way into the Top 10. The only Freestyle Record ever to do so.
