About Cocodrills/ Astada/ Berny Burns/ Dev Bhandari/ Joe Grossman/ Les Carbonell/ Past Deep at Output
Where they're from or how they grew up is entirely irrelevant. When they started off and what their influences were are inconsequential. Listing the popular venues they've played or name dropping artist that support them would be disingenuous. This is because a short anecdotal paragraph loaded with DJ/producer cliches wouldn't do their style, or their sound, any justice. The Cocodrills (Christian "Pridef" Diaz, Adam Cruz) pride themselves on creating a unique musical experience, which can only be just that; experienced. But make sure to leave your pretense at the door 'cause you won't find any bullshit at one of their parties; only funky grooves, positive vibes and rampant debauchery. And while they don't claim to have reinvented the wheel, they do like to take that wheel down the road of sound for a ride so wild it wakes up the next morning with no tread smelling of burnt rubber and a wondrous sense of "let's do that again!". Act accordingly.
Born of Indian and Haitian decent, he was raised in the under the influence of NYC before moving to NJ. His deep roots and passion remain strong in all aspects of what's important in life, family, friends, and his unwaivering desire to make people dance. With his intimate connection to the music, this allows him to connect with his fans, venues, and truly "feel" the music. Once the sun goes down, his creativity comes to life. Feeding off the crowd, it ignites his passion, and allows him to deliver one of his unforgetable sets. So while most of the world dreams while they sleep, in his conscious state his dreams are becoming a reality. He refers to his music as "Back to basics", which is a DJ that watches the crowd and feeds off thier energy, and never overlooks the details. With his ever growing popularity he has upcoming projects ranging from coast to coast, as well as Europe and India. With relentless drive, effort, skill, allow his talent to continually grow….Let me introduce to you, DJ Dev Bhandari.
Les Carbonell began his musical journey in the South Bronx NYC, where the mix of Hip Hop outside his windows joined with the Afro-Latino sounds pumping through his veins.
It was that musical mix that inspired the House beats Les blends today, a combination of deep soulful beats, a sung melody and plenty of quality Tech. Through their legendary musical mixes Les has been creatively inspired by such talent as, "Little" Louie Vega, Kenny "Dope" Gonzalez, Hex Hector, Danny "Buddah" Morales, Oscar G and Victor Calderone only to name a few.
"I must say first & foremost, MUSIC has been an immeasurable influence in my life, as a child to the present. It's permeated every aspect of who I am today, says Les. "It has taught me to express myself in ways I never thought possible. Live, Love, Laugh, Learn & make sure you have one hell of a soundtrack as you go!"
If you have ever experienced one of Les' gigs, you know that this 5ifty 5ive resident comes with a tremendous following to say the least. "Peace and love are my strengths, God is my light & Respect the Circle is my cry," says Carbonell.
An uptown based crew, 5ifty 5ive includes some of the most talented DJ's, dancers & industry personalities spanning the entire Tri-state area. The family continues to expand, covered in 55's from head to toe.
To his credit Les Carbonell has met the decks at legendary NYC venues such as Pacha NYC, Cielo, Santos Party House, National Underground, Sullivan Room, Arena & The Annual Black & White Festival (Governor's Island NYC). The list continues, and covers across every NYC subway line and well into New Jersey. In 2013, Les was invited to spin poolside at the Dorchester (FL) during the annual Miami Music Week.
A family man, Les has held the torch in NYC regarding all ages events, first beginning as resident DJ of Yotel's #BeatBrunch series (2012). In the summer of 2013 Les joined uptown urban art museum El Museo Del Barrio as resident DJ for their Radiance series, where dancers of all ages, shapes and sizes arrived weekly before the first track and begged for more even after the last note played that last Wednesday night of the summer.
Les' wife and children continue to be his drive and inspiration. "I play for her, she's made me understand what true love is, and as long as I can reach people through my sets and or live performance, I know I've succeeded."
Local Dj/Producer from New Jersey doing what he loves most.Musically influenced at a young age.Past Deep played keys in his dads rock band,and always been surrounded by talent and with an open ear for almost every genre,he is now ready to share his talent with the world!
