DJ Speex is Raphael Gordon, AKA “the Voice”

Raphael started collecting records in the mid 70’s & was a DJ in the urban NYC & Brooklyn club scene playing Rap, R&B & House music. He was a permanent fixture in the booth at the Paradise Garage, which allowed him to watch Legendary DJ Larry Levan, who motivated him to become a better DJ. He was mentored by several great DJ’s like Tee Scott, David Morales & Francois K, to name a few. This experience gave him the artistic direction he needed to become a great DJ.
He also was vocally trained & attended radio broadcasting school as a youth & began doing radio shows for a small station, WRLB FM in Long Branch, NJ.
He has been the DJ/MC for many organizations, such as The American Diabetes Association & N.A.A.C.P. & he has worked with radio personalities such as
Dr. Bob Lee (WBLS FM) & J I Starr (La Mega FM).
His distinctive baritone voice & energized personality, makes him the great MC he is today. Raphael Gordon will get your crowd up & keep it on, till the break of dawn!

    DJ Speex was incredible. He was on time, professional (great appearance) and knew just what to play.  My store was packed and people stayed all night. After reading the reviews my only regret is that I didn’t have the photo booths for the evening…Thank you for a wonderful evening, you truly set the pace.
