| The NOR DJ's
“This really surpassed our expectations. Now it’s NOR this, NOR that…
Who knows how far it’ll get?” In 2003, four friends decided to make
their dream reality; they brought their music and ideas together, soon
to render Chicago speechless. Today, NORdjs have become a staple
nightlife name.
Regularly playing in the city’s fittest venues, and having shared the
decks with the likes of Paul Harris, Dave Seaman, Creamer & K, Paul
Oakenfold, Deep Dish, Satoshi Tomiie, Steve Lawler, and Sandra Collins,
NORdjs’ resume is quite impressive for having been on the scene only
four years. NOR’s humble beginnings soon translated to city wide
recognition with the hottest promoters.
The crew’s down to earth attitude and approachable nature soon gained
significant respect with Chicago’s socialites and club lovers. The
fusion of talent and musical inclination sets NORdjs apart as a
versatile and unexampled group of djs. It was only natural that NOR’s
next step would be music production and international touring. Spanning
the globe from Chicago to Miami and Eastern Europe, even NOR admits to
not knowing what the future will bring.

Billy the Kid
Billy the Kid has just returned to the U.S. after being the chosen
Maxim Magazine Spring Break DJ in Acapulco, Mexico. Rock City
entertained and amazed over 20,000 spring breakers during his six week
stay. "DJ Rock City is an incredible DJ and Maxim was lucky to have him
at Maxim Break," said Jennie Corallo, Maxim's Marketing Director. While
in Mexico, Rock City opened for DJ AM, DJ Green Lantern, DJ LS1,
T-Pain, and Lil' Flip.
Residing
in Chicago, B96.3 Mixmaster Billy the Kid contributes to the most
listened to Mix Show from New York to L.A., which caters to millions of
listeners each week. In the event of being showcased, aside from his
multiple residencies at hotspots of Chicago, Billy has played at some
of the biggest venues and events in the world, some of which crowds
have reached 50,000+ in attendance. He was also a featured Dj at the
Winter Music Conference in Miami alongside Djs Seb Fontaine, Donald
Glaude, Robbie Rivera and BT to name a few. |  | Mark Centennial
Mark has finally graduated to VJing (as in beat mixing music videos).
Not only that, but he customizes the original videos themselves for
full dance floor effectiveness, so a good percentage of the videos he
plays have been extended, reconstructed, reworked and laid on top of
new sound for club play. When Centennial is in the booth you will now
get to hear and see your favorite Hip Hop, R&B and House songs /
artists in a way you probably haven't before. Remixes, Mash-Ups and
live performances from all over the world are just some of the things
you'll see, stuff you'll hear and places you'll be taken before the
night is over. Count on two things at one of Mark's events, new video
reworks premiering pretty much every week and the only place you'll see
them is with him.
|  | Danny Boy
Danny
has been working on his sound for over 10 years at the heart of
Chicago's Progressive Trance scene. His style of smooth, sexy,
deeply-textured grooves, baselines and Fx, has carried countless dance
floors through many enchanted rhythmic journeys. Danny began his
calling to be a DJ after working at a teen club as a Manager. Soon
after witnessing a Chicago legend perform, Bad Boy Bill, Danny felt a
small ripple of what his destiny held. In 1999, Danny shipped out for
his first gig in Ybor City, Florida, he gave Ybor City a taste of what
the Chicago Progressive Trance style was like. He hit clubs like 1509,
Amphitheater, and Club Le Mezzine (where he became a frequent DJ in the
coming months). While he was moving Eastern Florida with his energetic
style, a club owner from Chicago asked him to become resident at his
club back home, Club XL. This was Chicago’s only legal after-hours
club, which opened at 4am and closed at 10am, and had more than 2000 in
attendance every night. After a strong 2 years at XL, Danny moved on
and became a resident DJ at Glow where he played 8 hour sets every
Friday and Saturday night. Right around this time, Danny started
getting booked around the country in cities like Las Vegas,
Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Cleveland and New York City. Danny got to a
point where he established himself as one of the most prominent DJs in
Chicago. Having maintained a 6-night a week schedule for almost 4
years, he resided at major clubs like Kustom, Glow, Allure, Rive
Gauche, Whitestar Lounge and Buzz - along with frequent guest spots at
many other Chicago clubs.
While playing almost every single night of the week, Danny has begun
his producing career. This has landed him numerous and highly respected
offers, including opening for Paul Van Dyke last year at the House of
Blues in Chicago.
While his style was evolving and his production skills were increasing
exponentially, Danny was approached about a residency at Miami's most
prestigious club, Crobar.
