Erick Morillo has achieved a level of success usually associated with big-time rock stars and 50 Cent-like rappers. He is one of few DJs who can go from spinning the soulful and sexy house music of Miguel Migs to the deep and funky house music of Armand Van Helden. He has remixed Whitney Houston, Macy Gray, and Boy George and collaborated with Diddy. His global hits include the funky "I Like to Move It" under the moniker of Reel 2 Reel, "In My House" with Smooth Touch, and numerous Billboard dance music chart-toppers under his Subliminal Records label. And from pouring tequila into clubbers' mouths while dancing on top of a bar, to using pyrotechnics to liven up his stage show, Morillo engages his audience like no other. If you always wanted to know what the electronic music version of George Clinton and the P-Funk All-Stars sounds like, don't miss this show.
