DJ Bios

  • Chris

    I have been a DJ since the ripe old age of 13. My first spot in a nightclub was in Downtown Dallas at age 15. By selling custom mixtapes and DJ’ing local parties ranging from birthdays, school dances, & weddings, I found a way to support my love of music! Beginning at age 18, I worked for the largest Mobile DJ Company in Houston. From there, I worked for a smaller, high-end company who specialized in Bar/Bat Mitzvah’s, & Corporate Events. I did various office work, prepped equipment for all events, cataloged music, was a motivational dancer, and DJ. In 1997, I moved to Colorado, and worked as the Lead Sales Manager and Head DJ for a mobile company located in Denver. In my first year, I brought the annual sales up by 50%, and by my second year, brought it up another 75%. After 6 1/2 years in the Mobile Scene, I decided to go back to my roots in the Club Scene, and had a weekly residency on Tuesday, Thursday, & Saturday nights in Denver and Boulder for 2 ½ years. When I created Tip Top in 2004, I wanted to incorporate the best of everything I had experienced up to that point. I wanted diversity, creativity, and something unusually dynamic & personable. So, one show at a time, I looked to completely set standards way above anything previously done in the industry… all while keeping my rates honest and competitive. One thing that I felt was always missing… working with Youth and participating in Community Building. During this first year at Tip Top, I decided to create Turntables for Teens; a Youth Mentoring Program involving the art of DJ-ing, Breakdancing, Mural Creation, and Creative Writing. Having done Sound Design for Times Square New Year’s Eve in 2008 & 2009, and also for Lance Armstrong’s comeback race in Las Vegas, I remain most proud of the work I continue to do with Youth! Thanks for diligently reading this Bio! Feel free to contact me with any further questions or inquiries.

  • Ken

    Ken (a.k.a. DJ K-NEE) is a Grand Master of all things Music. He has a Weekly radio spot on F.M. 89, KUVO in Denver, is a 15 year resident D.J. at Club Round Midnight in Boulder, and also does Mobile Events. Ken has been a DJ for over 20 years, and is one of the only D.J.’s that I’ll personally go out and dance to. Simply put, D.J. K-NEE stays on the forefront of the music scene. Ken has all of the golden musical goodies that any enthusiast would beg to have. Perhaps this is because he has worked at Wax Trax Records… or because of his roots in Radio, but nonetheless, if it involves Music… Ken knows! Other than being a musical radar, K-NEE is great with reading the vibe of a crowd and directing the flow of an event. He is a careful listener. With a wise ear, he crafts a custom mix to benefit all those in the room. On and off the stage, he keeps a professional demeanor and a cool head. With announcements, he’s personable, and is able to direct party goers as to what’s going on. Ken is a team player, and understands how to bring out the greater good of the group. Other tidbits… Ken is a Dog Lover, a Dear Friend to many, and a Talented Photographer. He always offers a unique perspective to life, and sees beauty in all!

  • Musa

    In a nutshell, Musa totally embodies everything that Tip Top represents! Diversity is key. Communication is of utmost importance. Diligence and thinking outside of the box is highly valued. Musa stays in touch with creative solutions, and lives in that “space” daily. He is committed to Individual & Youth Empowerment and to learning from all that life presents. A Peaceful Warrior at Heart, Musa has been musically gifted since BIRTH! He is naturally drawn to creative forms of expression such as Salsa Dancing, Break Dancing, Graff Art, Turntablism, and is also a Talented M.C.! In collaboration with others, he continues to produce his own music and C.D.’s. Musa is drawn to drums and anything that has a percussive quality. He LOVES culture! Together we have taught about the Positive Values of Hop Hop at various places including… Friends’ School in Boulder, Longmont Youth Center, and Centaurus High School in Lafayette. As a teacher at New Vista High School, he has created Hip Hop History for the students as an elective class. Being Bilingual, Musa has traveled to Cuba to document the Afro-Latin Roots of Hip Hop Culture in a Documentary film that he created entitled, “Soulz of Azucar” Within 6 months after Graduating from C.U. Boulder, he produced the documentary, “Soulz of the Rockies” about Colorado Hip Hop Culture, which became an instant cult classic! What does all of this boil down to? He has a highly objective eye and knows how to keep the clients’ goal in constant focus. With this, you get a highly diverse DJ & M.C. who can successfully incorporate any style, any genre, and rock any party, anywhere, any day! Nothing slips past his ability to tune into the “beat” of a party, and to judiciously keep the vibe alive. Simply put, “Musa knows how to keep the balance right!”
