Having no music knowledge what so ever he grabs a guitar and continued his interests in music. His parents notice his skills and place him with a music instructor. He learns a lot about the essence of music and continued his journey in other aspects of it. At the age of 13 he was offered a spot in a school band playing the trumpet, trombone, tuba & drums.

Absolutely epic

Big J is the best DJ I've ever seen, and I worked for 10 years as a wedding photographer. He was very detail oriented, thoughtful and kind before the wedding. At the wedding he was eloquent with amazing transitions and introductions. Don't even get me started on the dance floor. We had a mixed wedding and let me tell you the dance floor did not stop for 2.5 hours. Every guest said it was the best wedding dance floor they have attended. He went way above and beyond for us.

My great friend who runs a wedding DJ business with 400 events under his belt said, "he's the best DJ I've ever seen"

Book him now if he's available!!

The best dj in puerto rico- look no further

From the moment we were introduced to Big J we knew he was a hit. In fact we found him on our own & said wow he’s really good and next thing you know my planner connected us and we were like YES!!!

Big J was amazing at playing in our wedding. His music, his equipment and lights were top of the line!! We loved every moment of it. He interacted with all and was so fun to be with. Great energy he brought into our wedding.

He also provided me on the spot a remix song (dance) I did for my husband. He was spot on and was very much excited to do this.

Best DJ in the books hands down!!! Hire him. Look no further. He is a true DJ, gets you into the groove! Had me dancing all night!!!

Thank you so much Joel for your art in music!
