DJ HENRY HALL began as an intern for Eightball Records, working in both the Promotion A and R department and their in-house studio. He was then offered a sales job in The Shop, Eightball’s record store, where he was quickly promoted and managed the store for a year.
Following his stint at Eightball, Henry was recruited by Kult Records, (a brand new label at the time) where he played a key role in developing their catalogue of music. While at Kult, he served as A and R Director of Promotions, signing such artists as George Llanes, Jr, Filthy Rich, and Louie Balo.
Setting the Stage as a producer remixer, the first creation from DJ HENRY HALL was called Becky at her Best, which was released by Kult Records as a white label. An extremely humorous dark house track, Larry Flick at Billboard described it as “Etched with insinuating tribal percussion and a grinding organ line, the track manipulates Valley-girl-voiced lines like Oh my God, look at her butt , It is so big” in unimaginable ways. This fun and festive effort, on New York’s Kult Record, will likely set the precedent for other outlandish booty-girl music videos in the future - Henry’s production style has been described by Bill Brewster, former editor of Update USA as hard and deep with a melodic sensibility that raises it above other of a similar ilk.
Henry is best known for his vocals and arrangement on Jackie B’s “Now (Set it off)”, which quickly became a Sound Factory anthem in 1995. Junior Vasquez would regularly work the track for at least 20-30 minutes, with the griddy base line and Henry’s deep tone vocals made the Sound Factory revelers & many other clubheads go wild.
Over the years, Henry has spun at a wide variety of venues and parties through out the New York City area and U.S.
