He began releasing old school mix CDs to the various distributors from Canal Street and Fulton Street to Jamaica Avenue and Fordham Road. Quickly, Vibe’s mixtapes were being sold across the nation, from Chicago to Los Angeles. CDs were even being sent to rural areas in North Carolina, Virginia, Texas, Minnesota, Ohio, and New Hampshire. Vibe’s CDs gained even more popularity globally. DJ Vibe mixtapes began appearing in stores in Paris, London, Tokyo, Berlin, and Montreal. Mixtapes may have brought DJ Vibe recognition, but his work as a live DJ is his true passion.

In Fall 2002, Vibe was accepted into New York University’s prestigious Music Technology program where he studied Music Theory and History, as well as audio recording. As an undergraduate, Vibe worked as a recording engineer at Carnegie Hall with Tonmeister Leszek Wojcik while spinning at NYC’s leading nightlife venues. In early 2008, Vibe received a Masters of Music from NYU’s graduate Music Technology program. His thesis titled “The DJ Aesthetic: A Look into the Philosophy and Technology That Enable the Disc Jockey” was one of the first comprehensive works on the subject.
