By day the city is consumed with politics, but by sunset, music comes afloat and the city beams towards the type of freedom that only house music can deliver. Oskarello arrived on the scene in 1990 when Rap/Hip Hop was the undisputed champion of the U.S. music scene. In the face of this genre goliath he rapidly joined a small niche of listeners whose ears belonged to a different sound. The enticing sounds of the 4/4 beat delivered by a drum machine, coupled with thundering basslines and mystic vocals drew oskarello in like a moth to a flame. Growing up in caracas venezuela, Oskarello was first struck by phonetic sounds called New Wave. Among his many first influences included the likes of: Pet Shop Boys, New Order, Tears for Fears, Eurorhythms, and last but not least Culture Club. It was during the late 80s when a new hybrid sound became Oskarello anthem. A synesthetic blend of lyrics, lush layers of synth, and rapid beats drew Oskarello to the new love of his life. Oskarello first encounter with the wheels of steel came casually during a party where a friend was playing. Curiosity got the best of him, and led to the inevitable purchase of his first records. With the guidance of his friend, Oskarello began learning the tantalizing art of mixing, and the House genre had instantly gained another rhythmic soul. After countless house party gigs and sleepless nights of practice, Oskarello landed his first real show at DCs infamous 5th Column in 1996. The clubbers of DC instantly recognized and welcomed Oskarello as a name that delivers euphoric nights in the district. In early 1999 DC saw the dawn of a new era in house & electronic music with the opening of GLOW at Zei club. The now legendary club influenced Oskarello to bend his style in new and unique ways, and inspired his current cross-genre blended style. These days one cannot mention house music in DC without hearing the name DJ OSKARELLO. Back fresh from playing raves in Caracas for several months oskarello was quickly recruited by club giant Five to be their latest resident DJ. With regular shows at the whos who of DC clubs including: GLOW, Eye Bar, Dragonfly, Spank, and Gazuza, Oskarello is quickly becoming one of the most in-demand DJs around.
