Bio

New Jersey's DJ Dave Davis has been a well respected DJ for over four decades. World Renown DJ's such as Tony Humphries, Timmy Regisford,  Merlin Bob and Shep Pettibone were his influences and helped shape his unique style.

Affectionately called '' DJ Dave D" a self taught DJ got his start in local night clubs and venues in 1982. He has made guest appearances at some of the tri-states legendary hot spots including Club Elevation (NJ), Club Zanzibar (NJ), Club Cheetah (NJ), Club 88 (NJ), Scandals (NJ), China Club (NY), Filter 14 (NY) just to name a few and held down residencies including Fluid The Likewater Movement & Soulful Rejuvenation. 

In 1992 radio personality/producer Andre "Dre" Young (98.3 WNMS FM) heard one of his mix tapes at "Movin Records"(New Jersey's most influential soulful dance music store of the 80's & 90's) and immediately became hooked on his deep soulful vibe, track selection and seamless mixing. Soon after, Dave became the resident dj for WNMS's "Club Mix Show" & "The mix @ six" from 1992-1994.

 In 1998 he teamed up with long time friend DJ Hot Rod, who was the resident DJ at Club Bogies in East Orange, New Jersey bringing his underground sound to a night club known for commercial dance music, and was up for the challenge of introducing many R&B & Hip Hop enthusiasts to soulful house music. DJ Dave Davis & DJ Hot Rod shared the residency until 1999. 

Later in the summer of 1999, Dave approached Club Zanzibar's legendary promoter/manager the late Shelton Hayes to produce a venue called "THE BIGGEST PARTY OF THE SUMMER" at the Coliseum Night Club in Jersey City, New Jersey. It was hosted by Carolyn Byrd (Club Zanzibar/Club Shelter NYC) and featured artists Kenny Bobien & Kimara Lovelace performing together for the first time and of course, Dave spinning on the decks. 

In 2003 Dave decided to go back to the airwaves and created his own Internet radio mixshow called "The Underground Groovement Party" which can be heard every week on 99.9 WDD3 Radio  99.9 WDD3 Radio (mixlr.com)
