Description


Aaron has been shaped by his experiences in living in Florida, Warwick, West New York and his time in NYC. He has been working his vision for TheNYCine Events and Radio646 for several years and has been able to create a scene that is bigger than what he ever expected. 

His love of mixed media, DJ’ing and his passion for music have helped channel his creative energies towards developing a forum for both established and emerging talent. A core driver of his efforts has been to ensure that Electronica/House has a means to travel to all homes regardless of what mainstream radio provides. 

While Aaron has promoted many events he acknowledges that his most notable work involved several projects to help charity causes.  He has promoted events to help Haitian earthquake victims and now Tokyo catastrophe survivors. 

He feels that we are all connected and that music can bring us together to make a difference. 

Be part of the THENYCINE/Radio646 movement and let us know what you think, like or would like to share with others.
