A product of the Midwest rave scene in the 90s, Dino educated himself in House music with the sounds of Chicago. Attending and playing parties throughout Middle America, Dino continued to improve his skills behind the decks over the next few years. In 2005, he packed his bags and headed west towards the House Music mecca that is San Francisco. His westward move proved to be a catalyst in his music
career, as Dino quickly began promoting parties and establishing himself in San Francisco’s House scene. The year 2009 marked a huge turning point for Dino with gigs at SF’s oldest & most infamous dance club, The Endup. It was at The Endup, where Dino began to turn the heads of locals and headliners alike with his deep house sounds. Dino Velvet soon became an established and revered resident of one of the most popular monthly parties at the Endup, Sunday Mass.
2011 marked the end of Sunday Mass but new opportunities were right around the corner. The following year Dino teamed up with cohorts Leonard, Greg Yuen, and Joey Alaniz to bring San Francisco their own flavor of House music with a new party titled Common Ground. A monthly event held at SF's best new club Monarch, Common Ground quickly established itself as a key player amongst San Francisco's veteran House Music partygoers. Names like Jimpster, John Tejada, Shur-I-Kan, Ian Pooley, Ralph Lawson, Miles Maeda, Max Chapman, Session Victim, Steve Bug, Doc Martin, Charles Webster, Recloose, Gavin & Robbie Hardkiss, Alexi Delano, Fred Everything, Joyce Muniz, Mood II Swing, JT Donaldson, Lance Desardi and many more have found their way to Common Ground's dance floor since it’s inception and the party shows no signs of slowing down. Aside from the sound of house music typically heard coming from Dino while djing, he also has a deep love for disco, drum and bass and techno. Under his alias, Velluto, Dino continues to push his sound as a dj by blending deep, driving, and melodic techno that is sure to please any club or late night venue. Dino Velvet continues to make a name for himself with his brand of Deep House and it's clear he is poised to keep his dance floors moving for years to come. www.https://ra.co/dj/dinovelvet
