DJ Ascension — genre-bending turntablist, remixer, producer, MC, host, educator, and multi-instrumentalist. An autodidact who began his career over two decades ago, Ascension has risen from local faves and underground raves to headlining luxury weddings, destination events, arenas, festivals, and cruise ships worldwide.
A sought-after name in the destination wedding and luxury event space, Ascension brings a flawless track record of 500+ five-star-rated weddings to every celebration, including dozens of bespoke destination events in Cabo San Lucas, Kauai, Cozumel, Puerto Vallarta, and Costa Rica.
His residencies span some of the industry's most exclusive venues, including Toca Madera, Ambar Tulum, Montauk, STK, Saguaro, Adeline, Bar Smith, FRC, Shiv Scottsdale, HiFi, Skysill Rooftop, and TSR Arena — trusted by clients and venues that demand precision, polish, and an unforgettable experience.
That same precision has made him a repeat-invited favorite of major festivals including Burning Man (13X), Bonnaroo (3X), EDC (4X), AfterGlow, Holy Ship, June Jam, Pitch A Tent, Decadence, and Global Dance, where he's shared the stage opening for Laidback Luke, A-Trak, Tool, Drake, Fleetwood Mac, Candyman, Ruthless Ramsey, Tydi, Griz, Wolfgang Gartner, Break Science, Desert Dwellers, and more.
He was the first student in the world to receive an Associate's Degree in Live Performance Disc Jockey Techniques, from Scottsdale Community College — and for the past ten years has taught the craft himself as an instructor at both Scottsdale Community College and Mesa Community College, with private lessons that are highly sought after and exclusive.
DJ Ascension defines his name by elevating crowds and individuals across the globe. His ability to read a room and tailor every moment — from a couple's first dance to a packed dance floor — is unlike anything you've seen before. His magnetic personality and deep love for the craft come through in every set, blending Top 40, Pop, Dance, Hip-Hop, House, Rock, and more into a seamless, elevated experience built for the moment.
Ascension strives to deliver the ultimate live performance, fusing live guitar and trumpet with turntablism — flame thrower trumpet included for the moments that call for a little extra fire.
Original music is available on all major streaming platforms. DJ Ascension exceeds expectations consistently, his uplifting and inspiring presence matched by his finely tuned technical skills.
This one has limitless talents and truly ascends in everything he does. Tune in and feel your frequency rise.
