Trancid has been spinning for over 20 years now. Throughout his career he has played a variety of musical styles from what is now considered classic house, alternative dance/new wave, techno and industrial/ebm. Exposure to the various genres of electronic music has carved out his current eclectic sound which is a gritty dance-punk electronic sound with rock tinges .
He has played along side world renowned electronic and rock acts such as VHS or Beta, Moving Units, Front 242, Die Warzau, Kill Hannah, Assassins, IAMX, Shiny Toy Guns, Red Flag, Anything Box and Chicago up and comers: Echonine and Comasoft...
He's also played alongside djs and producers such as Justice, Digitalism, Tiga, MSTRKRFT, Tommie Sunshine, Junior Sanchez, Steve Aoki and Felix Da Housecat.
Currently he's holding down the fort as one of the resident djs for the highly successful and nationally renowned monthly event, Dark Wave Disco @ Sonotheque and a weekly residency at Chicago's Debonair Social Club, amongst guest spots at almost every major venue in the city of Chicago. He recently traveled to Iceland to play at Club Nasa in Reykjavik.
He is currently collaborating with his DWD cohorts, Mark Gertz and Greg Corner to work on some remixes and original material to be released in the near future.
