DJ Brian Norwood was born during the first seedlings of dance music as we know it today were sprouting. In the 1970s, the Tea Dance at Fire Island's Blue Whale was settling in as ritual and David Mancuso's infamous "The Loft" parties in NYC were just getting started. Being born in the music-rich environment of Nashville would be a harbinger of things to come. And being born in that era would greatly impact his career.In the 90's, Philadelphia, the city of brotherly love, would open its arms to Brian. This move to a more urban environment and being within the twinkle of NYC skyscrapers, is an important transition not only in geography, but of musical awakening. After attending a seminal Saint-At-Large Party with all its intendant revelry, he felt an overwhelming drive to cultivate music and learn to mix. Vinyl was still the preferred medium for DJ's, which gives Brian the unique perspective of being among the younger DJ's still spinning today who teethed on vinyl.In the 90s Brian began to play live shows. His ability to feel the energy of a room and to zero in on what crowds want to hear quickly gained him major name recognition that spread from Philadelphia to the entire nation...

Sophisticated Morning #35
On many of my mixes I intentionally put pieces of music that are remake/remixes of familiar songs or are by known artists so as to give my listener something to "latch" on to. We all love familiarity. However, there is none of that on the newest Sophisticated Morning. This mix is for my serious, music-minded fans and followers. You will recognize nothing on this mix...but if you are a lover of deeply emotional and anthemic pieces of music...then this mix will take you "there". I start the mix off with one of the most epic and uplifting balearic anthems of the year: "Call Me Home" by Roger Shah. From there I glide through deep and touching pieces before ending in full-on euphoric deep house. We live in a crazy and sometimes frantic world. But we have tools to help us navigate life and make it....better. I hope you'll use my music to motivate yourself to help make our world a better place. Together we can do it. One song at a time.
