J-Break was first introduced to the electronic music scene while going to infamous Orlando nightclubs like the Edge, Ultraviolet (UV), and Firestone in 1995. He quickly started to DJ, mentored by his friends, Foreplay and Davie-D, who were already an Orlando legend at the time. At the age of 19, he got his first residency at the late nightclub, Mimosa, along with residents Wutam and Davie-D. His first remix of Sonique (musician)'s "Feel So Good" was played on XL 106.7 FM every Saturday night and he quickly became a local favorite.
