DJ Relentless is one of a kind—thank God! I can literally sum up “his” unique aural ex-perience in two words: BRING EARPLUGS! Many DJs can fill a floor—but few can clear them with the efficiency of this jock. Relentless also holds the unique distinction of being the only US DJ to bottom in animal porn films—with family members, no less! And talk about reasonable rates. Name one other DJ who pays to play! No, he’s worth every penny he charges. All five of them!

And now for the truth. Relentless is a seamless mixer whose greatest asset is his versatility, in a world where too many DJs get bogged down in that boring “I only play tribal” or “I only play hip-hop” bullshit. Relentless feels out and plays for the crowd, which has inexplicably become a novelty in clubland. Since he spins at gay, straight, black and white venues from upscale clubs like Lotus to grittier, popular lounges like XES, this fool has every record known to man-, woman- and tran-kind from hip-hop and R&B, to soulful house (his spe-cialty) to circuit music and the fiercest classics. Anytime I’ve had trouble locating a specific rare mix, it’s been Relentless to my rescue with his encyclopedic record collection.

And of course, a long-running residency at the legendary Latin club La Escuelita has en-sured that he is well boned up on his salsa classics and the latest reggaeton cuts. In fact, his ass got pretty well “boned up” by Escuelita’s horse-hung go-go gods in the DJ booth/dressing room. KIDDING!

Also highly commendable is the fact that Relentless stands out as sober, punctual, reliable, hard-working team player in the drama-filled world of tweaked-out diva-ish super-DJs who often aren’t worth all the fuss! If needed, this man goes the extra mile to emcee, provide soundscapes for fashion shows or hilarious, tripped out show reels for his many drag sis-ters. I would highly recommend Relentless for any gig from main floor to gay pride events to weddings or corporate functions. He’s already done ’em all, nationwide for decades.

“ I DoN’T ThINK ThAT ANyoNe cAN come cLose To The veRsATILITy of ReLeNTLess.There is not a dance floor that I haven’t seen him work his magic on. And I personally have a huge collection of his mixed compilations. It’s the closest thing to being in the club.”—mJ White (Vocalist/Writer/Recording Artist)

Being a part of the MTV generation and having witness the landscape of New York nightlife ebb and flow over the years, sensing a need for a little extra something for his patrons and fans, DJ Relentless has recently added VJ to his moniker highlighting his ability to adapt with the times. Since doing so, his entertaining video compilations are continuously sought after by bars/lounge and nightclub owners in NYC for the added value they bring to their venues.

As a recording artist, Alphonso King began his recording career in 1997 with the release of his first 12” Dance single “Why Are You Gaggin’?” as his alter ego—Jade Elektra. In 2000, he signed a record deal with Triple XXX Records in London. “Bitch You Look Fierce” and “Proud Mary” have become underground dance and runway favorites from New York to London. Jade Elektra’s most recently recording “How Do I Look” produced by Midnight Society has been a sought after track by a few record labels and DJs such as Peter Rauhoffer and DJ Paulo. DJ Relentless is currently singed with the London base record label Groove Baby Records and his most recent track, “House is Alive” available for purchase on beatport.com and junorecords.com.

With 20 plus years of DJ experience under his belt, DJ Relentless is pleased that his skills are still very much in demand. Several more projects are in the works, DJ Relentless, Jade Elektra and Alphonso King are definitely names to look out for.
