He won a mixtape contest hosted by Satellite Records NYC, which earned him a guest spot at the famous weekly party called ‘Fusion’.

In 1996, Russ broke the US borders and got his first  international  shows sharing the stage with renowned DJs such as Sasha & Digweed, DJ Rush, Robert Armani, DJ Sneak, and Erick Morillo, among  others. Russ has just shy of 30 years in the scene and he has no signs of stopping. He’s still playing events on a regular basis and his last release was in Beatport’s top 10.
