DJ HENRY HALL
ABOUT DJ HENRY HALL
DJ HENRY HALL began as an intern for Eightball Records, working in both the Promotion/A&R department and their in-house studio. He was then offered a sales job in The Shop, Eightball's record store, where he was quickly promoted and managed the store for a year. Following his stint at Eightball, Henry was recruited by Kult Records, (a brand new label at the time) where he played a key role in developing their catalogue of music. While at Kult, he served as A&R/Director of Promotions, signing such artists as George Llanes, Jr, Filthy Rich, and Louie Balo. Setting the Stage as a producer/remixer, the first creation from DJ HENRY HALL was called "Becky at her Best", which was released by Kult Records as a white label. An extremely humorous dark house track, Larry Flick at Billboard described it as "Etched with insinuating tribal percussion and a grinding organ line, the track manipulates Valley-girl-voiced lines like 'Oh my God, look at her butt! It is so big!' in unimaginable ways. This fun and festive effort, on New York's Kult Record, will likely set the precedent for other outlandish booty-girl music videos in the future." Henry's production style has been described by Bill Brewster, former editor of Update USA as "hard and deep with a melodic sensibility that raises it above other of a similar ilk." Henry is best known for his vocals and arrangement on Jackie B's "Now (Set it off)", which quickly became a Sound Factory anthem in 1995. Junior Vasquez would regularly work the track for at least 20-30 minutes, with the griddy base line and Henry's deep tone vocals made the Sound Factory revelers & many other clubheads go wild. Over the years, Henry has spun at a wide variety of venues and parties through out the New York City area and U.S.
