D.J. Jaystyles was born and raised in the Bronx — the birthplace of countless music legends and the heart of Latin rhythms like salsa. From the moment he could recognize a beat, music flowed through his veins. Influenced by his proud Puerto Rican roots, Jaystyles grew up surrounded by a rich blend of sounds: Old School Salsa, Freestyle, Hip Hop, R&B, Merengue and more. Every weekend was a celebration — house parties and family gatherings were filled with dancing, good vibes, and nonstop music. It was only a matter of time before he picked up his first set of DJ equipment and began crafting a sound that was all his own.
Music quickly became more than a passion — it became his lifestyle. After stepping into the club scene and witnessing the energy of live crowds, Jaystyles knew where he belonged: behind the turntables, setting the vibe and moving the room. With tireless hours of practice, learning mixing techniques, and mastering production software, he developed a signature style that blends the best of the old-school classics with modern-day bangers — uniting generations on the dance floor.
Today, D.J. Jaystyles is making waves in New York City’s nightlife. His unique ear for music and undeniable crowd control have earned him bookings at some of NYC’s top venues, including Latin Quarters, Candy Lounge, Sofa Lounge (formerly X-Bar), Mi Gente, Red Lounge, Remedies Lounge, and many more. With each performance, he proves that music isn’t just entertainment — it’s his purpose, and he’s just getting started.
