Quicky Mart

What Quicky Mart does

DJ Quickie Mart (legal entity: DJ QUICKIE MART; principal: Martin Arceneaux) is a privately-held individual DJ and turntablist operation headquartered in New Orleans, LA, with seven total personnel across the broader operation. The business centers on authentic turntablist craft — live vinyl mixing and original mash-up production explicitly built from commercially released recordings without presets, loops, or programmed beats — supported by a catalog of released projects including the mash-up album Brain Salad Surgery, the genre-blending Gypsyphonic Disko (with Ben Ellman of Galactic), the hip-hop production-focused Haze Diaries Vol. 3, and the breakbeat-driven NOLA Bounce Breaks Vol. 1 and King Cake Breaks Vol. 1 (collaborations with DJ Yamin and Tony Skratchere).

The company's primary distribution channels are live festival and club performances — including tier-1 bookings at Bonnaroo and Voodoo Music + Arts Experience — and the djquickiemart.com website, which operates simultaneously as an artist portfolio, a music blog publishing third-party artist profiles and album analyses (Harry Nilsson, Carole King, Warren Zevon, Home Free, among others), and a direct-to-consumer e-commerce storefront with shopping cart and checkout functionality for CDs, vinyl, and related merchandise. The site exposes a 40+ language selector and defaults to Indonesian Rupiah pricing, which is more consistent with a templated content platform than a tightly-localized retail operation.

The revenue model is implicit and not publicly disclosed: monetization is plausibly derived from a mix of live performance fees, merchandise sales through the e-commerce storefront, streaming royalties from catalog releases, and any paid studio production or collaboration work. There is no disclosed pricing structure, no contractual enterprise customer base, no funding history, no external investors or parent company, and no evidence of formal B2B go-to-market motion. The customer base is horizontal — individual music fans, concert-goers, and working DJs who purchase records — with no named logos, segments, or concentration data available. Ownership and management are concentrated entirely with the founder; the legal disclaimers carry the entity name DJ QUICKIE MART.
