DJ Lantern has been playing for over half a decade. Raised in Northern Virginia he’s risen to the top of the D.C./Baltimore club circuit. Having a number of high profile gigs, he has gained much respect in the local surrounding DC area. A master of mixed genres, his best skills are displayed in Breaks and Hard House - but has been caught playing just about every other genre in the EDM dictionary. Lantern is currently holding residency in DC @ Essential Breaks (Club Five) and in VA @ Transit, where he has been pushing the nu-school funk sound of breaks and has been getting more than a flavorable reaction from the dance floor.

Over the past few years, DJ Lantern has locked down a huge number of gigs in many different cities. One look at his gigs list should offer a glimpse at the high level of dedication Lantern puts forth towards his craft.

DJ Lantern has played along or opened with such acts as: Donald Glaude, Josh Wink, Richard Humpty Vission, Dj Micro, Jackal and Hyde, Dieselboy, Hive, Dj Icey, Dj Craze, Sharaz, Dieselboy, AK1200, DJ Fixx, Deekline & Wizard, The Rouge Element, Tom Real, Dj Mutiny, NAPT, Paul Oakenfold, Sandra Collins, John B, Lisa Lashes, Mauro Picotto, Lee Coombs, Scott Henry, Baron, DB, Dj Dan, Elite Force, Reid Speed, High Contrast, Mampi Swift, Charles Feelgood, Rabbit In The Moon, Baby Anne and many more. He’s dropped his science in various cities on both sides of the Atlantic, such as D.C., Baltimore, Philly, Richmond, Pittsburgh, Nashville, Miami, NYC and London. DJ Lantern is one of the rare few Yankees who (alongside DJ Proxxy, the main man behind DC Breaks and Essential Breaks) were invited to play at Herbal, Medicine Bar and The End nightclub in London (a rather intimidating venue). Without a doubt, DJ Lantern is a true Breakbeat ambassador for the D.C. area and beyond. Hay thanks, Lantern!!
