Favored among the likes of Deep Dish, Danny Howells, Hernan Cattaneo and Danny Tenaglia, this New York native (just call him “Quick”) has been influencing the world’s underground dance scene for over a decade.
For a record to attain anthem status with DJs around the world is no small feat, but he accomplished just that with his 1997 independent house music interpretation, of the Led Zeppelin rock classic “Babe I’m Gonna Leave You”. It was his ageless classic “The Flying Song” (Ibiza anthem of 2001) that became one of the most licensed dance tracks of all time! Other notable productions include “You Are Sleeping”, “Nameless”, “I’ll Be Your Friend” and more recently “Shit Just Stays The Same” amongst many, many others. Sought after for his underground yet marketable sound, Quick has been summoned to remix major label artists such as Sara McLachlan, Jimmy Page & Robert Plant, Gloria Estefan, Faith No More, Celine Dion, Robert Owens and BT, just to name a few.
While he’s known for his progressive tribal house sounds, his roots are in hip-hop. He earned the name “Quick Mix” as a teenager when first wowing audiences with his “turntablist” skills. Operating under the pseudonym “The Nubian Crackers” with partner The Undercover Brother, from 1991 to 2001 they’ve released many underground anthems and Raw Break Beats just for MCs & DJs. What can you expect from a PQM DJ Set? Not straying far from his background as a block party DJ growing up in Queens NY, he readily demonstrates those turntable skills with seamless mixing, creative layering and the clever use of acapellas, which often happen “live” and in the moment. Like his productions, expect his hip-hop sets to be filled with Old School “East Coast” anthems, and his house sets to be unique, emotional and undeniable on the dancefloor.
He has proved this in recent times in such far flung places as Russia, Peru, Costa Rica, Canada, Greece, China, Japan, New Zealand, and Australia amongst others. His reputation is growing, as is his global following.
