Background

Early life DJ Scene, born Brian Alex Herwander, is an Everett, Washington native. He moved to Yakima, Washington at sixteen, where he purchased his first turntables. His initial plan was not DJing in clubs; he was a drummer in a small band and thought the addition of scratching would bring a unique sound to the band.

Notoriety DJ Scene moved to Seattle, Washington at age eighteen. His first weekly radio show was with DJ B-Mello on KEXP-FM 90.3. After opening for 50 Cent in 2002, Scene was asked by KUBE to try out as an on-air mixer. He began mixing daily on the "Mixtape at 8" and soon started doing the "5 o'clock Traffic Jam" on Fridays. XM Satellite Radio 67 'The City' approached Scene and began broadcasting his pre-recorded mixes nationally 5 days a week.

Before clubs and radio became primary, Scene made a name for himself in the DJ battle circuit, becoming the 2002 Northwest DMC Champion, a competition held in New York City by DMC World and hosted by Jam Master Jay several weeks prior to his death.

Las Vegas DJ Scene started playing Las Vegas in 2005, where he was first booked to play New Year's Eve at Club Ice. He went on to sign his first Vegas residency with Light Group and played weekly at Jet Nightclub inside and eventually became so active in Las Vegas, he moved there soon after he locked in his Vegas residency. The Mirage and Light Nightclub inside the Bellagio (now 'The Bank').

In 2008, Scene started his first Vegas pool residency, playing every Sunday and Monday at Wet Republic at the MGM Grand Las Vegas. During the same year, he began a new weekly Tuesday residency at Studio 54 inside the MGM Grand Las Vegas.

The following year in 2009, Scene began working with N9NE Group and was regularly at Moon Nightclub at the top of The Palms and 'Ditch Fridays' at The Palms pool. Then in 2010 DJ Scene moved again, this time to the new CityCenter to play every Thursday at Liquid pool inside Aria Resort & Casino. This was also the year Scene was named Las Vegas Weekly's "Best Pool DJ". Scene currently holds a Thursday night residency at Haze Nightclub at the Aria Hotel in Las Vegas.

2013 DJ Scene acquired residencies including Encore Beach Club, Haze Las Vegas, Shrine at MGM Grand Foxwoods, The Estate Boston, The Park Sacramento, Manor West San Francisco, and Mur.Mur at The Borgata in Atlantic City. Scene is also a producer. He produced Naughty By Nature's official 20yr anniversary remix of "Hip Hop Hooray" in 2013. His single "DAMN", with Jayceeoh was released Nov 2013 on Fools Gold Records and it received major support from A-Trak and other notable DJs. Scene is the 2013 Westcoast Thre3Style champion, has been voted 'Vegas Best Pool DJ' twice by JackColton.com, 'Best Open Format DJ' by RemixReport.com and has a DMC champion title under his belt.

Style Scene is known for incorporating various styles of music into his work. His distinct style of scratching, live remixing and blending classic party anthems, spans every genre from AC/DC to Jay-Z and 80s to pop. He is able to spin open format, EDM, 80s sets, old school hip hop, and everything in between. The brand was inspired by the desire to produce something his parents could relate to and get a look into the type of work he does.
