Media group sets Oct. 8 open house

YOUNGSTOWN — A Youngstown man has turned his childhood passion into a career, and now, a media group.

Mike Moritz owns Kontinuous Jams Media Group in Boardman, which includes a recording studio, music lesson rooms, an area where CDs are printed and designed and, if his hopes get fulfilled, a dance studio.

And Moritz is only 25 years old.

The business began in Moritz’s parent’s basement as a simple recording studio. Eventually, it grew to the point where he had turned a second-floor apartment above the Durkin Financial & Loan Services, 4717 Market St., into a recording studio and music lesson space.

Now, as business continues to grow, he has moved to a bigger building at 6911 Market St. His business has the top floor. Youngstown Cycle Supply last year moved into the bottom floor, which used to house Prizant’s Carpet.

Moritz is holding an open house the week of Oct. 8. Business is normally done by appointment, but Kontinuous Jams will be open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. through Oct. 12 so people can take a look around the studio.
