We strive to bring you many experiences that are “quintessential New York,” but our efforts wouldn't be complete without including NYC’s legendary downtown nightlife scene. And if there's one person who embodies both the downtown scene as well as the vibrancy of NYC in general, it’s DJ Pony. 

Hailing originally from Rome, Italy, Pony has a background that includes studying fashion design at FIT and working as a DJ & dancer on the NYC party circuit. With his natural ear for mixing House, Techno, and Pop, coupled with a broad spectrum of artistic influences, Pony has risen to prominence DJ-ing at A-list venues such the Gansevoort Hotel, The Pierre Hotel,  and Norwood Club, among many others.  Pony has been featured on several magazine covers and has earned many award nominations, as well as write-ups in New York Magazine's "Best of NY" issue, and in Time Out NY as Critic’s Pick for Nightlife.

For our exclusive experience, Pony's agreed to share his techniques and tricks with you, all in the comfort of your home*.

An in-demand DJ who enjoys mentoring as much as he enjoys making the scene, Pony will start by introducing you to the world of nightlife entertainment, providing insights into his own background and how he developed his own unique sound and mixing style.  He will then talk with you to get a feel for your own musical tastes, and sit down with you and your pre-selected playlists to create a 30 minute mix that you can practice mixing, using the cutting edge techniques and changes that are known to those in the trade. He will then guide you in recording your mix and uploading it online or burning onto a CD or USB drive to take home with you.

We have no doubt you will learn to hear music in ways you never imagined, while also learning the secrets to making NY the “city that never sleeps!”

*Experience price includes travel to your home for residents of Manhattan. If you live outside of Manhattan, you must make separate travel arrangements with DJ Pony, not included in the price of the experience.
