Versatile
and determined, Victor Font (a.k.a. Mr.V)
is
set to become a major force in the music industry.
With a life-long interest in music, Mr.V emerges from
New
York City's club scene as
a well-respected DJ and
budding producer/remixer. Born in Manhattan's Lower East Side in 1974, the
Nuyorican discovered a great love of music at a very
young age. Victor was introduced to the club scene by his aunt,
who was a
bouncer at the now legendary nightclub, The World-, and by the age of
fourteen,
Victor started DJ’ing with help from neighborhood friends. After
graduating
from High School, Victor
was so consumed with DJ’ing he spent most of his nights
practicing or visiting the clubs, listening and
watching from other DJs.
Determined
to have his own audience, Victor spun at many house parties as he
could, until
he finally got his first official club gig as Mr. V at Timmy Richardson’s 2i’s party in New
York City.
Widely influenced and open-minded, Victor sites House,
Hip-Hop, Latin, Garage & Disco Classics, Rhythm and Blues and Jazz
as his
main musical influences. Victor has
displayed his turntable talents at many popular
nightclubs and Party’s in New York and across the
globe, including: Bang The Party (NYC) Cielo Club (NYC)
Underground
Collective (NYC),
Centro
Fly (NYC), Southport Weekender (London, UK.)
Club
Andalu in Washington D.C.,

Deluxe in (Edinburgh, Scotland)
Club

Club

Sullivan Room (NYC),
Layers
at Bauhaus Nightclub (Toronto, Canada), GateCrasher
The Summer Sound System (UK)
SoulEyes
- Tokyo, Devotion- The
End Up (SanFrancisco)
to
name a few…
Gaining many contacts through the years,
Victor
eventually landed a position at the Masters At Work
record label (MAW Records), as an assistant to "Little Louie" Vega
& “Ralphie Boy” Muniz. The position would bring him around world
and give
him a first-hand glimpse at the booming global dance
scene. Adding to his repertoire, Victor has recently evolved
in to music production. His debut remix with Alix
Alvarez, "The Anthem"' was released on Underground
Collective Recordings in 2002, with much success,
Victor has many more projects in store.
With
years of experience, Victor remains an integral part
of the music and club scene, as a gifted DJ and
aspiring producer with new ideas and a fresh sound.
Dancing to the beat of his own drum, he hopes to
become a force in the dance music industry and blaze a
trail for other DJs to follow in the future.
