Introduction: In this business what stands out is experience, reliability and professionalism. It would be very difficult to last over 25 years in this business, without these traits. What I like most about my job is watching the people have a great time. If most are not having a good time, then I don't feel like I am doing my work correctly. Fortunately, I have done pretty well and keeping the people dancing and having fun.

In regards to the talents of DJ Henry Knowles: I have attended many parties where DJ Henry Knowles have worked at.... he knows how to work the crowd and that's an understatement. He's highly recommended and his reputation preceeds him... I can certainly see why. His parties are always crowded and packed with mobs of people .... sleet, thunderstorms, rain or shine, people come because of DJ Henry Knowles. I once went to the party before Henry arrived, it was The Hudson Terrace, a well-known classy lounge and restuarant ... he was late because of a previous party he was DJ'ing at...(2 parties in one nite - that's how popular and in-demand he is), things did not pick up until he showed up. The whole energy, vibe and atmosphere was different when Henry took over. He can read the crowd and knows how to energize the crowds. People go up to him for requests all the time and he is more than happy to honor their requests. For Henry... it's always about pleasing the crowd. He'll even get the dance floor going if need be with asking the ladies to dance during songs... he's amazing to watch. And when he gets the crowd going... the bar is always packed with people as well getting refreshed in between songs. Henry may be world famous, always in demand traveling the globe on international assignments and having an impressive resume of managing well-known artists/musicians such as Marc Anthony and the New Swing Sextet, and etc ... but you'd never know he is a rockstar within the Latin Music World. Henry Knowles carries himself with finess, charm and impeccable manners. He is always sensitive, gifted and humble to everyone's goals and needs. It's a pleasure to see Henry at a party ... he has a huge fan club and the ladies just adore him. And where the ladies go... men are sure to show up, he is a superstar DJ in all the latin party scenes. Everyone who dances to latin music has heard of his name. The crowds at his parties stay till the very last song and that's after a long hard day of work whether it's Monday, Wednesday or Friday... which tells you the kind of talent, press, connections and energy Henry brings to all his parties. It is not uncommon to see many famous Latin and American stars and artists showing up at his parties... such as Vanessa Williams. It's guaranteed a surefire win/win night with DJ Henry Knowles.

Henry is one of the most professional, organized, and reliable colleagues I have worked with in the music and dance scene. I first got to know Henry when I booked him and the Grammy Nominated/Legendary band New Swing Sextext to perform for our launch of SALSEEK.com, a digital magazine about Latin dance and music. It was a complete success and he was truly, so wonderful to work with that we decided to partner to continue a new dance party with LIVE bands, performances and dancing all night long! We also worked together on press for the event and continued with the promotions for our monthly parties held at a swanky NYC nightclub. He is the best of the best and I would highly recommend him!

Henry Knowles is like a fine bottle of wine... He only gets better with time!!! A person's success can only be measured by the level of professionalism, dedication, and attributes to one's career. Henry has applied all of his knowledge and talent into satisfying the very crowds that he entertains. His music and persona have been infectious to say the least, along with his smile and charismatic nature. He can definitely keep the world dancing to the beat of his music on all levels. We are truly blessed to have such an individual as Henry as part of our lives. We feel confident that the many thousands of other individuals that he has entertained along the way feel the same exact way.

Henry Knowles set the bar high-long before most current disc jockeys were aware of salsa. I have known Henry for 15 years and have hired him more than a dozen times. He knows the music, the artists, and witnessed a good part of salsa music history as a native New Yorker. Henry Knowles is also a dancer. This gives him great instincts that compels those in attendance to move to the dance floor. Although no DJ can know every piece of music, one is hard pressed to stump Henry. Make a request and Henry will ask what version is your favorite. Now that's what its all about!

DJ Henry Knowles has been there as not only an amazing Dj, as a friend, manager and then some. His talents are indescribable. He's able to read the crowd wherever he is and takes them to another place. At the peak of the night, your doing things on the dance floor you never thought was possible. Then he sends you home with a song you just cant get out of your head:) and all that's left is a big smile on your face:)). Whenever and wherever Henry's Dj'ing ill guarantee you a great time and the best people. To say the least he also is a great dancer:) Hopefully he'll ask you to dance with him a Cha cha!!!
