| DJ A great DJ is passionate about music, in fact they are almost obsessive about their music. They look high and low for the next big tune before it becomes the next big tune. They don’t worry about what others are playing and buying they only care about what they are collecting – they believe in their own musical taste and style and are not afraid to take calculated risks if and when needed. |
| The Definitive DJ Bio Spotlight |
| DJ/Producer/Writer Scott Mann Scott has been writing lyrics and music for years. "Didn't everyone have one of those cool Casio keyboards in the 80s?" As a young teenager, he had no idea that he would actually be in entertainment or that he would achieve success in it. In 1994 as an afterhours club employee, Scott Mann was introduced to the art of DJ. As the resident DJ would come in during the daytime to play new records, Scott was there preparing the club for the nights crowd and asked to learn. Now 14 years later Scott has been a full time DJ/Producer for 4 years and now writer of dance floor anthems for 1 year and counting. "It's Over" featured vocals by Amuka who was no stranger to the dance floor. Her smash "Appreciate Me" propelled her to club "Diva" status. "It's Over" was Scott's first published song, became a smash hit and spent 12 weeks on the Billboard Dance Charts in 2010. "It's Over" was given honorable mention at the Billboard World Song Writing Awards in April 2010 for being among the top 500 songs written worldwide in the dance and electronic categories. "DUB, We Need A Beat" was released in the Spring of 2010 and made its way onto playlist and sets of DJ's and music lovers. In September 2010, Scott released "Love Hate" with Jennifer Carbonell and certified himself as a "Hit" wonder. Now "Earth Wind Fire" released in June 2011, and has been declared #1 Anthem of the summer by CircuitAndAnthems.com in it's 2nd week out. Scott has also produced remixes for other artists that are also releasing this summer including "Bassman" - Gerald Goode feat Suzanne Vick releasing July 2011. His influences range from Tony Moran, Thunderpuss to Edson Pride and artists like Kristine W, Lady Gaga and many others (too many to name). A skilled DJ can read a crowd, recognize crowd progression and then build upon its energy; DJ/Producer Scott Mann has mastered these skills and thrives on the energy he helps create whether spinning house, vocal house, mainstream, tribal, electro or retro twist. "Its gotta be live." Scott spins live; he travels from gig to gig with CDs in tow. Scott has been the DJ at several clubs, events and parties around the US with attendees totaling in the hundreds of thousands. Now can be heard on Americas #1 GLBT Radio Station; Pride Nation Radio which gave him his own show in August 2010 titled: The BEAT p.m. with DJ Scott Mann and in 2011 it's popularity gained 4 shows weekly. He also can be heard on Dance Mix America. "Scott Mann is so famous, but people don't know it yet!" Kitty Meow (Club Promoter, South Beach Icon and Performer) Scott Mann was nominated for "Best Up & Coming DJ" in 2009 for the Just Circuit.com Awards and was named one of the Hottest DJs in South Florida by 411- Magazine. In 2010, Scott was again named one of the hottest DJ's in South Florida and a rising star in music. Only a handful of the most popular club DJs write their own material, so don't be fooled when you see a featured artist following a DJ/Producers name. Scott Mann is in a class of his own either burning up the charts or the dance floor.
