Versatile and determined, Victor Font (a.k.a.
Mr.V) is set to become a major force in the music
industry. With a life-long interest in music, Mr.V
emerges from New York City's club scene as a
well-respected DJ and budding producer/remixer.
Born in Manhattan's Lower East Side in 1974, the
Nuyorican discovered a great love of music at a
very young age. Victor was introduced to the club
scene by his aunt, who was a bouncer at the now
legendary nightclub The World. By the age of
fourteen, Victor started DJ’ing with help from
neighborhood friends. After graduating from High
School, Victor was so consumed with DJ’ing, he
spent most of his nights practicing or visiting
the clubs, listening and watching from other DJs.
Determined to have his own audience, Victor spun
at as many house parties as he could. He finally
got his first official club gig as Mr. V at Timmy
Richardson’s 2i’s party in New York City.
Widely influenced and open-minded, Victor sites
House, Hip-Hop, Latin, Garage & Disco Classics,
Rhythm & Blues, and Jazz as his main musical
influences. Victor has displayed his turntable
talents at many popular nightclubs and parties in
New York and across the globe, including: Bang The
Party (NYC), Cielo Club(NYC), Underground
Collective (NYC), Centro Fly (NYC), Southport
Weekender (London, UK), Club Andalu in Washington
D.C., Audio Deluxe (Edinburgh, Scotland), Club
Core (Tokyo, Japan), Sonic Arch (Santo Domingo),
Club Shelter (NYC), Roots (Cielo Club), Layers
(Toronto, Canada), Louie Vega’s Dance Ritual
(NYC), Sullivan Room (NYC), Layers at Bauhaus
Nightclub (Toronto, Canada), GateCrasher The
Summer Sound System (UK), SoulEyes (Tokyo), and
Devotion- The End Up (SanFrancisco), to name a few.
Gaining many contacts through the years, Victor
eventually landed a position at the Masters At
Work record label (MAW Records), as an assistant
to "Little Louie" Vega & “Ralphie Boy” Muniz. The
position would bring him around world and give him
a first-hand glimpse at the booming global dance
scene. Adding to his repertoire, Victor has
recently evolved into music production. His debut
remix with Alix Alvarez, ‘The Anthem' was released
on Underground Collective Recordings in 2002.
With much success, Victor has many more projects
in store.
Victor remains an integral part of the music and
club scene with years of experience as a gifted DJ
and aspiring producer with new ideas and a fresh
sound. Dancing to the beat of his own drum, Mr. V
is becoming a force in the dance music industry
and blazing a trail for other DJs to follow in the
future.
