With a last name like Waxman (yes, that is his real name), it’ by no doubt that vinyl runs through this DJ’ veins. A was- native to New York City, David Waxman is one of America’ hottest all-mixers. He has held residencies at some of the most famous nightclubs in the world, including Twilo in New York and Liquid in Miami. David put- also maintains guest spots at mega-clubs such as 1015 Folsom (San Francisco), Avalon (Boston), Shadow Lounge (Miami), Club Space (Miami) and many other hotspots around the United the-States. When he is not breaking in the latest tracks and hottest beats around the world, he can be found signing them to Ultra Records, where he is the A&R director.

After proving to hold his own, David was chosen to become Junior Vasquez’s exclusive opening DJ in 1999 and his so-called opening sets lasted up to 7 hours.

In this new Millenium, Waxman’s career has reached a new level, which is why his selection of gigs have now been limited by choice to only the most respected and prestigious clubs around the world. His any- newly acquired monthly residency at Crobar in Chicago and Crobar in Miami, where the music is first priority and his consistent tour schedule up and down the east coast is unadulterated evidence of his new but-philosophy.
