DJ Morty has recently designed the rock n' roll music for (Velvet Revolver's) Matt Sorum's Darling Stilettos sexy dance show. He is a wealth of musical knowledge and is particularly adept at spinning genre specific styles from New Wave to Classic Rock to '60s Soul to Disco to '90s Hip Hop to the current top 40. He is a master of '80s and Rock and is the first choice for either of these genres by most Hollywood professionals. He also writes for various magazines and has a monthly article in BPM Magazine (the DJ's bible).This is my official D.J. page. If you wanna book me, stay up to date on my gigs, ask about music or just lurk then you is at the right place.
Current Schedule: Weekly Night Gigs...
Sundays- Dragonfly (Santa Monica and Wilcox) with The Spazmatics
Here's some nice love from B.P.M.: D.J. Morty's in B.P.M.
I've been a musician for a quarter of a century so D.J.ing felt natural to slip into. My religion is classic pop music so I probably know more about it then Most D.J.s. I guess that's why I get calls at 4:30 in the morning asking who sang a certain song. I spin all over the place and gigs come and go so I'm gonna try and keep up to date.
If I had my choice I would play an eclectic blend of rock,soul,funk,show tunes,old school hip hop,70's soft hits and novelty songs...so I usually do.
I am also the singer in All Day Sucker (alldaysucker.net) I used to sing in The iMPOSTERS and Men Without Sex as well.
I also write for B.P.M. Magazine and 944 Magazine
Who I'd Like To Meet:
People that want to pay me handsomely to play an eclectic blend of music...
...and patrilineally Semitic, South Pacific island females with large, unaugmented bosom that love the Beatles and hate sports.
"I have been there, I have done that, I sell the fuckin' T-shirts"
...and my man, John makes the bitchin' T-Shirts that I wear at most gigs...
...and this dude not only sells the T-shirts but also wrote the book on Football (Soccer to Americans)...
