As he readies to release the third installment in Nervous Records’ successful Nervous Nitelife series of mix compilations – Nervous Nitelife: Summer Clubbing3 (Nervous), for release July7th, 2009 – THEO takes a moment to survey the clubbing landscape he helped craft. The old adage of hard work and perseverance bearing fruit has been proven right, once again, in THEO’s life. At the height of his powers as a club DJ, radio personality and dance music producer, THEO’s never been more relevant to the world of electronic dance music.

THEO (real name: THEO PISANI) currently hosts weekly dance mixshows on Sirius XM Radio (“AIR” on BPM, Friday late-nights) and on “Party 105.3FM” radio (WDRE, New York, Fridays evening drive-time), as well as a separate show on Party 105 (WDRE, Saturdays afterhours). His current position as one of dance music’s most influential tastemakers was not attained overnight, but rather earned over the course of years working as program director and mixshow coordinator on college radio stations at Bryant College (Rhode Island), Brooklyn College (Brooklyn), and Stony Brook University (Long Island). Not long after college, THEO would score commercial radio gigs working at WLIR, WBLI and WXXP (which later became WDRE/Party 105), mixing on live broadcasts. At WXXP, THEO was hired by VIC LATINO as mixshow coordinator and eventually was named music director. (WDRE is a BDS-monitored station also broadcasting into Nassau County on 101.5FM.)

Throughout THEO’s years on radio, he played steady club gigs and built a much envied following on his home turf of Long Island and throughout the New York tri-state area. THEO’s advice to aspiring deejays is, “Get a residency at a good club and build a crowd. That’s the only way to create a following.” THEO’s previous releases include editions 1 and 2 of the Nervous Nitelife: Summer Clubbing series for Nervous Records, in 2007 and 2008, respectively, and NYC Mixx for UBL Music in 2006. Special video footage recorded this summer will be incorporated into a DVD for release in 2010 on Nervous.

In the media, THEO has appeared in a variety of print and online outlets, including: DJ Times, Remix, Club World, Musico Pro, Accent On Tampa Bay, Jive, The Southampton Press, The East Hampton Independent, The Miami New-Times, The Las Vegas Weekly, Las Vegas Citylife, Holmdel Happenings, Raves.com, Clubplanet.com, and others.

THEO has shared the bill with international superstars like TIËSTO and DAVID GUETTA, and as of summer 2009, THEO can be seen and heard deejaying regularly at the country’s finest nightclubs, including: Harrah’s Pool (Atlantic City), Cielo (New York), M2 (New York), Pacha (New York), Neptune Beach Club (Long Island, NY), Nocturnal (Miami), Water Taxi Beach (Long Island City, NY), and Island (Long Island City, NY), among other venues. Official Summer Clubbing3 release parties will be held at Neptune (July 11th), Cielo (July 16th), and M2 (July 25th).

PEDM- Hey Safarii! Great to have the opportunity to be with you again. Why don’t we start out with a short introduction for all of our readers (DJ Name, Musical Style).

SAF- SAFARii UREÑA :: Currently going by just SAFARii. It seems like my last name isn’t the easiest to pronounce. lol :: I would be scared to say what musical style I like. May be I should say depending on the weather is what I would listen to. At the club you might listen to a tech /minimal style with a tribal splash. I’m from the Dominican Republic.

PEDM- What draws you to dance music and drives you to be more creative each time you step up to the decks?

SAF- I’m Driven by two things. The energy of the crowd, and the way GREAT music can make you forget of everything, and welcome you into the DJ/Producer’s way of ART.

PEDM- What changes have you undergone, in the musical sense, since you began focusing on DJing electronic dance music?

SAF- Many changes! It’s been a Journey :: I can only say, unless you see this as a way of life it would be difficult to understand.

PEDM- I know you’re a busy man between your weekly residencies and guest spots, are you leaving any time open for Producing? Are we gunna hear any productions by DJ Safarii in the future?

SAF- Currently I’m getting comfy with all the production tools but hopefully in the near future.

PEDM- Right now, music in the dance world is blowing up! Of course we’re in the prime time for releases with the Winter Music Conference just 2 weeks away. What artists or labels are catching your attention these days?

SAF- Luciano, Loco dice, Audiofly, Mendo, and a few more guys that are creating unique sounds.

PEDM- Last year year at WMC we had a blast! What’s the first thing you’re gunna do when you touch down in Miami?

SAF- Tnxxxxxx god for the opportunity

PEDM- You just broke huge news about you DJing @ ULTRA. A huge honor and a monumental moment for your career. Tell us about this gig and how special it is for you?

SAF- This gig is only the beginning of something special. It’s very important, but I treat it like I treat all my other gigs. They all have much importance to me, and deserve quality!
