After interning for his mentor DJ Stretch Armstrong of "The Stretch Armstrong and Bobbito Show" on WKCR, Reach learned the importance of being unique and creating his own mix.

His open format style and ear for mixing eclectic DJ sets eventually led to his residency at high-profile night clubs, corporate, celebrity events including Pink Elephant, PM, TAO, Prime and Marque; Playboy's Super Bowl Bash, NASCAR/Nextel Cup Series Championship Party, Madonna's Confessions tour after party and Jay-Z's infamous 24 hour Hanger tour.[citation needed]
