On May 20, 2007,  DubSpot  celebrates six months of inspiring
music and video enthusiasts to create the sounds of tomorrow with a debut of their new
event division DS14 at the  Sullivan Room , NYC.  This event
will feature amazing musical talent with  Turntables On The

instructor, award-winning VJ  Chris Biggins  (crobar / Studio
Mezmor).

 “It has been an amazing 6 months as we’ve seen Dubspot grow into a
creative hub of artists. It has been rewarding to be able to provide access to the tools
& technology and help people explore their creative visions – whether that be making
songs, DJing or manipulating visuals on a large screen,”  says DubSpot
founder Dan Giove. 

For  DubSpot , redefining music education and entertainment
has been their main goal which has led to their unprecedented growth in the first
six-months. The diverse team of instructors range from DJ Neil Armstrong of The 5th
Platoon, Studio Mezmor’s JP Solis, DJ Reborn of Ubiquita NYC, to veteran producers Jim
Bonnefond, and System Recording’s Dustin Cook. These producers and DJ’s impressive
credentials include projects for artists such as The Rolling Stones, David Bowie, Talking
Heads, Kool and the Gang, Bjork, and Jimmy Cliff and DJing for clients like Russell
Simmons’ Def Poetry Jam, The Roots, Common, Talib Kweli, MTV, VH1, and HBO. 

 DS14  is the dynamic new full service events division of
DubSpot - comprised of a team of industry professionals who have come together to design
unique and creative events – from intimate receptions-to- large scale multi-media
installations, we have the expertise to facilitate all of your event needs.  Current
