About Me


HEAR ME SPIN EVERY FRIDAY @ BERLIN NIGHTCLUB

BIO:

GREG HAUS has been a respected part of Chicago's electronic music scene since the early '90s. His sound is edgy but accessible, drawing inspiration from the fringes of club culture to blend some of the most unique and infectious mixes of music you'll hear anywhere in the United States. Greg is fiercely dedicated to bringing new sounds to the masses but always manages to throw in a few classics or rare versions of more mainstream tunes.

In 2006 he had the honor of playing dj sets with electro sleaze goddess Peaches , JD Samson of Le Tigre , and Diplo – plus a special set for " First Fridays " @ Chicago’s Museum Of Contemporary Art in honor of Pride month and the debut of acclaimed photographer Wolfgang Tillmans’ latest exhibit. This year, he played dj sets with Buzz McCoy of My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult, MEN: (JD Samson & Johanna Fateman), Donald Glaude, Dean Coleman, Boys Noize, & Cazwell.

“Cosmix” – his weekly Friday residency at Berlin Nightclub – has been a popular late night destination for over 10 years, plus he can be heard frequently at such Chicago hotspots as Funky Buddha Lounge , Smart Bar , Debonair Social Club , and Lakeview Broadcasting Company . He has also held residencies and played gigs at such diverse clubs as Victor Hotel , Hydrate, Crobar, Dome Room, Spin, Metro, Club 950, Neo, and Darkroom. He's also played many tag-team gigs with some of his favorite Chicago DJs, including DJ Trancid (Dark Wave Disco / Blacklisted) & Shaka23 .

Greg has brought his talents to clubs and festivals throughout the country, and has worked as a freelance music journalist for several local and national music publications. His debut remix release for the track “Gotta Know” by NYC vocalist Madelin Zero (who has collaborated with Circ & ATB) is now available on Indecent Media / Radikal Records, and can be purchased via iTunes, Napster, Amazon.com, and various other music outlets. Greg is currently working on new remix projects that will hopefully be out sometime soon.
