SHIMMY BEACH HOST’S SUPERSTAR DJ AND GRAMMY WINNING PRODUCER DAVID MORALES
SHIMMY BEACH HOST’S SUPERSTAR DJ AND GRAMMY WINNING PRODUCER DAVID MORALES SATURDAY 10TH JANUARY.
A native New Yorker, David Morales grew up
during dance music’s most influential era and frequented its legendary clubs
such as the Loft and the Paradise Garage.
As a DJ, Morales honed his skills at New York City’s most popular clubs
throughout the early 80s and then embarked on a remixing career. In the mid-
80’s – right when the art really started taking off - Morales teamed with
Chicago house music legend Frankie Knuckles and For The Record DJ Pool
founder/NYC nightlife impresario Judy Weinstein for the creation of Def Mix
Productions to help manage remix requests and handle artist business affairs.
David Morales has remixed and produced over 500 releases for artists including
Mariah Carey, Aretha Franklin, Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson, Eric Clapton,
Pet Shop Boys, U2, Whitney Houston, and Jamiroquai. Morales was nominated for
his first Grammy Award in 1996 as a Producer on Mariah Carey’s album ‘Daydream’
for the song ‘Fantasy’. He was nominated again the following year and
ultimately won the 1998 Grammy Award for “Remixer of the Year”.
David Morales made his solo debut in 1993 with the release of “The Program”
through Mercury Records. In 1998 Morales released “Needin’ U” on Definity
Records which under license to Mercury in the UK soon became a #1 Dance Record
and a bonafide club classic. In 2005 Ultra Records released Morales’ second
artist album entitled ‘Two Worlds Collide’ followed up in 2011 with ”Changes”.
David is considered by many to be one of the first true superstar DJ’s. Thanks
to his remix/production work Morales was among the first DJs to actively tour
the world. David is also known as one of the most versatile DJs currently on
the scene. Whether it is playing alongside of the “Kings of House” with Louie
Vega and Tony Humphries or representing his company Def Mix - with Hector
Romero and Quentin Harris - Morales feels comfortable adapting to each
situation. David Morales not only defines the superstar DJ, he is a talent that
has so much more to give in a world that constantly changes.
