Cosmo Baker

Cosmo Baker is widely considered as one of the top party-rocking DJs on the planet. A master of everything from hip-hop to disco & funk to electronic music, his unique style and spinning prowess is able to bring it all together in a cohesive, and funky manner. This Philadelphia native cut his chops alongside contemporaries such as ?uestlove and Rich Medina, and when he relocated to Brooklyn in the early ’00s he helped found the internationally known DJ / remix collective The Rub. His knowledge of music is only matched with his uncanny ability to move the crowd. Cosmo is a rare breed of DJ that bridges the gap between the legendary DJs of yesterday and the superstar DJs of today.

Cosmo Baker is truly a “DJs DJ” – a tastemaker, a visionary, and most importantly a world-renowned party rocker. This East-Coaster truly embodies the very soul – both musically and otherwise – of his native Philadelphia. Cosmo conquered the Philadelphia nightlife scene before he was even old enough to get into clubs, and by the 21st century he had taken his DJ career to new heights, becoming one of the world’s most sought-after mixers. Coming up in the 90s when hip-hop was at it’s purist height, and Philly was one of the epicenters if it, Cosmo was a beacon of flavor and style. Flawlessly being able to shift between genres became his signature style, he pioneered an “everything but the kitchen sink” attitude to mixing that went on to influence a whole school of DJs in the early 2000, including Diplo and Low Budget of Hollertronix. And that philosophy not only applies to his genre-hopping, critically acclaimed mixes but to his live performances as well.

As a DJ, his performances are exactly that – A LIVE PERFORMANCE. Cosmo brings an energy behind the decks that is unmatched, and is felt and reciprocated by his audiences. He’s a true showman, and whether it’s raw hip-hop, reggae, house & electronic, disco, funk, soul or rock music that he’s playing, he makes you love it, and makes you feel it like you didn’t even think you could. His musical styles are as diverse as the imagination. Seamless blends, razor-sharp cuts, and the most impeccable selection are all part of the concoction. But on top of that, he has an ability to read a crowd like no other. He’s always in sync with his audience, one step ahead of the times, and his finger is always on the pulse. He has amazed crowds with his electrifying DJ sets from New York to Los Angeles, London to Paris, Barcelona to Cancun, Montreal to Vancouver, Tel Aviv to Bangkok to Hong Kong and more.
