"I find influence and stimulation in all things tangible and intangible, by things seen, heard, and felt. Every day I come across something or someone who motivates me musically and I carry those thought patterns into my creative processes. I am a curious and dynamic person and am continually refining myself artistically and spiritually, which I hope to convey and pass along in all my artistic endeavors."

JEN MAS is the leading lady of hardcore techno in North America. Founder of the Vitus crew, she's maintained a strong electronic music scene presence for over a decade, and has an invariably growing fan base that spans the globe. Known for her lightning fast mixing and scratching abilities, she continues to impress audiences everywhere with her fast-paced sets and mind-blowing track selections. Also known to play other genres such as electro, house, hardstyle, drum and bass, 80's dance, and much more, she has proven that she is a DJ without limits or boundaries. And regardless of what style she plays, she has raised the bar when it comes to showmanship on the decks and will be sure to intensify any dance floor. Her childhood training in classical piano and her natural ear for music has not only played a pivotal role in her career but is also her motivation to continue pushing her artistry to new levels.
Jen has always kept herself completely immersed in her music endeavors. If she's not out somewhere rocking a DJ set, she'll be found buried in her studio working on tracks, or staying connected to her friends and fans however she can. Her involvement in the scene has always been a personal thing for her, and she embraces every connection she's made, on and off the dance floor. The energy transference that takes place when she hits the decks is a rare gift that she is happy to share, and it is something that cannot be explained with words, making her performances not only unique, but uplifting, fulfilling, and entertaining on a level few have experienced before.
Voted one of the top 20 female DJs in the world by Shejay magazine, Jen has proven that she is a renown artist who is here to stay. And that is no easy task, as hardcore is often an underrated and misunderstood genre and few ever get very far with it. But her drive and dedication to pushing the sound along with an innate ability to infect you with her music has turned many people onto her style, which in turn has also helped the genre get more recognition in America. It's her fascination with variety and deep love for all music that are the driving forces behind her unique DJ approach, and her diverse sets are always an exhilarating and exciting aural experience, whether or not the partygoers are hardcore fans.
Jen has been dubbed the American "Queen of Hardcore" for many years now and is one of the heavy hitters representing the New York City electronic scene, right behind the original hardcore masters Lenny Dee, Delirium, Omar Santana and Rob Gee. And gender has never been a factor in her success, as her skills have always spoken for themselves and she has rightfully earned her place at the top. Never satisfied with anything and with an unrelenting willingness to learn, she is constantly developing and expanding her sound, and she strives to continue opening minds at every performance.
As if all that wasn't enough, she still finds time to remain true to her promoter roots by continuing to organize events and mentoring others to do the same in her area. Her crew Vitus is not only exploding with talent, but they are a contributing factor to the ongoing success of the NYC electronic scene. They are a valuable entity as a whole, yet they all have a strong impact on the music and culture individually. So keep your eye out for many more projects to come from this remarkable crew for years to come.
