DJ C-Lo knew something special was about to blossom while playing at his first party almost a decade ago at a place many of us won’t be able locate on a map - Herring Cole Chapel in Canton, N.Y., while in college. And the rest is history. WHY NOT?

The son of parents who emigrated from Ecuador to the United States for that “American Dream,” DJ C-Lo was a defensive lineman under Coach Lou Sabin (who coached NFL Hall of Famer O.J. Simpson) at Canton University. Inspired by DJ Red Alert, DJ Kid Capri and Grandmaster Flash (and devastated at the unfortunate death of a close personal friend, DJ Carl Blaze), DJ C-Lo has gone on to sack the turntable business with the same heart and determination he had while out on the grid iron, just mixing it up to the crowds delight.

Those small college parties led to other bigger and brighter opportunities when he headed back to The Big Apple after college.
