Walt Rosati has never chosen to hide behind a stage name… He has let music take the lead… A Toronto native he quickly established himself as a mainstay of the Canadian DJ scene as teenager. Playing his first “all-ages” parties in 1982, he was a key player in organizing a thriving club scene which survives today, driven by new talent.
 
In the early days Walt showcased his strong abilities technically and musically. Playing the soulful sounds that would ultimately become the foundation of house music, he began to play alongside some of dance music’s brightest stars: “Nu Civilization”, “Snap”, “Sound Factory”, “The Cover Girls”, and the list goes on. With a sound that was more on the edge, more appealing, a dedicated following, Walt quickly became a favorite at Toronto’s larger “Glam” clubs. Focused on playing for the crowd, and guaranteed performer, poised Walt as a favorite of nightclub industry insiders. His dedication, professionalism and talent shine through, as every residency held has proven to be a successful, long running club night.

Always focused on bringing the crowd first cut music from around the world, his residencies show the flexibility of his style, ranging from hard driving Trance and Progressive House to smooth house grooves with a tribal flare. Walt has also been able to bring his sound to the airwaves hosting multiple radio shows such as Globalgroove Network, 103.5, Energy Radio, Power 88.5, and multiple internet radio streaming sites. His talents have also been showcased via various live mixed CD Compilations including his latest called Addikted Trance Session 1 available on EMI records.

In 2004, along with long time partner Louis Chu he undertook a new venture called Republik Nightclub located in Toronto's entertainment District. Opening in March of 2005, Republik became one of North America premier nightclubs being the country's most technologically advanced venue.  Walt currently holds a monthly residency at Republik along Johan Gielen and John 00 Fleming along with his regular appearances with Destiny and Temporal Rhythm.
