DJ Valentino

Valentinos’ Bio

Born in Cancun, Mexico and raised in South Jersey since the age of 10, Valentino grew up with music in his hands long before he ever touched a controller. A guitar player first, he taught himself to DJ a few years back and has been climbing ever since. Since joining Starshield Entertainment he has become one of the most versatile names on the roster: open format, high-energy EDM and hard techno when the room wants to go off, and a true go-to for Latin nights, with merengue, bachata and everything a crowd expects to hear. His real love is dembow, and he does not just play music, he makes it. His latest production is an original tech house take on the Five Nights at Freddy's theme. Valentino reads a room fast, talks to his clients, and adjusts on the fly, which is exactly why people keep asking for him by name.

From the Heart (and the Hustle)

A Word from Rich, Starshield’s Owner.
Topic: Valentino

Valentino has been involved in music for quite some time, but what really stood out to me was his drive to become part of the Starshield team. Even during one of the busiest parts of the season, he kept following up, stayed persistent, and made it clear that this was something he truly wanted. When he finally auditioned, he absolutely blew us away. Since then, he has learned quickly, stepped into events, and has continued to make me really happy with the progress he’s made. As a Spanish speaker and guitar player, he brings a depth of musical knowledge and versatility that adds real value to our team. On top of that, he practices constantly, and I have a lot of respect for the work ethic and drive he shows every day. Valentino also has a great personality, a strong sense of humor, and fits naturally into the culture of Starshield.

 DJ Mixes

Quick note: These are raw, live event samples meant to give you a feel for what Starshield can bring to the room. They are not studio-polished mixes. Requests, timelines, client must-plays, and real-life event moments all shape what you hear.

These recordings can include, dinner, formalities, unmixed moments etc. So if there’s a rough blend, a hard turn, or a tiny “oopsie,” welcome to live DJing.

Your event is still tailored to you, not random internet ears.

FAQs

  • I have been in the music industry for 5 years, and I started my DJing journey almost 2 years ago.

  • I make events successful by reading the crowd, talking with the client, and staying involved from start to finish. Nothing ever goes perfectly, and my job is to notice what the room needs and adjust on the spot.

  • Open format first, with a strong lean toward EDM and house.

  • Expanding my range into 50s and 60s music so I can cover that crowd just as well.
