DJ Doug Yoel

For as long as I can remember, setting moments to music has been my passion and my life’s work. In the early part of my adolescence, I started spinning records publicly and performing at parties and weddings. As a teenager in the 90s, I joined well-known NY rock radio station, WBAB-FM, as a DJ and radio personality.

I spent the early years of the 2000s earning a music degree and running independent record labels. This invigorating time in my life evolved into an enlightening musical journey, including the chance to produce records for a few of my rock, jazz, and blues heroes. I had the opportunity to pick songs for the albums and assemble the musical elements. Some of our projects had the good fortune to receive several awards and accolades – even a few Grammy nods!

I have a great love for weaving music together as a DJ, both in the live setting and on the radio. In 2012, I took to the airwaves again, ultimately becoming a DJ on WDST in Woodstock, NY. Over the last several years, I’ve had the honor of mixing music at some extraordinary events. I take great pride and care in bringing just the right music to your occasion. Putting together a collection of music – based on your vision – and watching it come alive on the dance floor, and on your guest’s faces…it is an indescribable feeling!
