Masthead Banner Made with MyBannerMaker.com! Click here to make your own! Hipsters. Club kids. Rock lovers. Pop starlets. Actors. Pro Athletes. Fashionistas. Cougars. Models. DJ Nitelife gets them rocking, all in the same place, all at the same time. Los Angeles native and classically trained vocalist/former choirboy, DJ Nitelife has been spinning records for the last 18 years, perfecting the art of mixing, LIVE mash-ups, cutting, and scratching, inspired by 80's and 90's music, skateboard culture, fashion and photography. Nitelife is an accomplished producer and musician as well, writing and producing original music as one half of the duo known as '11:30 SATURDAY NIGHT' (click on any of the tracks above for a sample of his production work; recent production credits include work on V2 Records recording artist Katy Rose's debut album 'Because I Can', and on 'Adult Entertainers, Child Educators' the debut album on his own record label, AtWill Records, for his band, The Laura Smith Quartet). Come by on any one of his nights, and see a dance floor rocked RIGHT, as this straight up party rocker cuts, scratches, and flawlessly mixes his way through musical genres with DJ sets that get his dance floors started and keeps them packed. More than a DJ, he is an entertainer. Talented, original, exciting, fun to watch AND listen to, he is THE premiere DJ on LA's Westside. You can catch Nitelife at the V Lounge every Friday (Santa Monica), Tengu every Tuesday and Thursday (Santa Monica), and at The World Famous Standard on the Sunset Strip every other Saturday (Hollywood). The Laura Smith Quartet album, 'ADULT ENTERTAINERS, CHILD EDUCATORS' is now available on iTunes. Please check it out and buy the songs you like, buy the whole album!
