genre. Yusef has been quoted by many club promoters as an
"Irreplaceable DJ with a sound and vision all his own, definitely one
of California's top DJ's"

most discerning ears, Yusef has conquered it all. Versatile enough to
have played private parties in the company of Kci & Jojo, the LA
Raiders, Nelly and No Doubt, while redefining cutting edge during
runway shows from FHM to Hustler lingerie, (as well as regular

pleasing an unseasoned music market, Yusef has maintained his sound and
credibility for the last decade. In a city stifled with generic dance
music, it's easily recognizable when he takes over the decks (a sound
that has often been compared to House legends Eric Morillo and Roger
Sanchez). Always a step ahead, Yusef will continue to pave the way in
Southern California's Dance Music scene for years to come.
