In between his heavy touring and producing schedule, Dirty South regularly releases compilations for labels such as Ministry Of Sound, Toolroom Records and SONY just to name a few.

Anything happens in Vegas. On top of that, I want people to have fun and enjoy my music. I want all of us to have fun together.”

Saturday, March 5 – ERICK MORILLO ‘SUBLIMINAL SESSIONS’
Erick Morillo’s star-studded Subliminal Sessions residency at Marquee Las Vegas saw Paris and Nicky Hilton dancing behind the DJ booth last month, as well as a rousing performance by Shawnee Taylor, whose vocals are featured in his hit track “Live Your Life.” It’s no surprise that the dazzling, Tron-inspired, futuristic experience is so popular: it breaks all standards of clubbing. Erick is platinum-selling DJ, whose first dancefloor hit was in 1994 with Reel 2 Real’s ubiquitous “I Like To Move It.” Since then, he has developed a funky, soulful house sound, producing more hits, as well as remixes for Whitney Houston and Basement Jaxx, among others. Meanwhile, his Subliminal Records label continues to sign talented artists and deliver quality releases to the discerning dance music cognoscenti. Erick is also the mastermind behind legendary weekly summer parties at Pacha Ibiza and a headliner at many of the world’s top music festivals.

Since then, he’s spun at the biggest parties around the world (London, Paris, Australia, Germany, Japan, Hong Kong, Malaysia, the Philippines, Mexico, Canada, etc), lent creative input to artists like Timbaland, Kanye and Pharrell, and opened two locations of his own sneaker store, CRSVR, one of which is located right inside The Cosmopolitan Hotel of Las Vegas, alongside the Marquee nightclub itself.
