DJ TOPSPIN

DJ TOPSPIN [aka BLENDIANA JONES] is established as a musical pillar in the Northwest and across the world. He [seemingly] easily weaves a complex blend of hits & unearthed genre-spanning gems from both past & present eras, creating a musical tapestry all his own. He’s particularly renowned for his harmonic ear, showcased by his signature blends / remixes, selection & timing; as evidenced by the “a.k.a. BLENDIANA JONES” addition to his moniker. The nickname says it all, as he’s left his sonic imprint on Seattle’s cultural nightlife scene throughout the span of his 30+ year career & has plans to continue taking his talents far & wide globally. His ability to read a room & sonically satisfy the various cultures within, are unmatched. Born from a Jamaican father & Panamanian mother, the pulse of the diaspora [in the form of dancehall / reggae / soca / afrobeat] is always present in his musical displays. ‘Harmony-heavy flavor for those that love to dance’ is the envelope he pushes via the records [he pushes & pulls]. Make no mistake; you “need it from the TOP!”
