About Me

Lee is a recent Los Angeles transplant from Chicago, and part of a vibrant, rapidly mutating L.A. techno scene. A long time Chicago resident and part time Ibiza vet for many years, Lee came away with a distinctly electronic take on house and techno flavored by his roots in soulful music. Lee spent years as one of Chicago's busiest, and most forward thinking djs, and playing a distinct mix of soulful techno, 80s funk/boogie, electro/tech/deep house, and minimal funk. Now one of L.A.s rising stars, due to his eclectic style, he is the first choice for U.S. promoters and venues to open up for truly cutting edge and distinct artists in wide array of genres. He has played alongside Booka Shade, Norman Jay MBE, M.A.N.D.Y. (Get Physical), Switch, DJ T (Get Physical), Damian Lazarus, Jamie Jones, Konrad Black, Guido Schneider, Clive Henry, Seth Troxler, Lindstrom, Chris Liebing, Darshan Jesrani (Metro Area), Dixon (Sonar Kollektive), Lee Burridge, Paul Woolford, King Britt, Dan Berkson + James What, Ewan Pearson, DJ Craze, Gangstarr, DJ Spooky + many more.Expect an eclectic mix of deep electronic music with shades of Detroit and Chicago roots, and enough electronic funk to shake a stick at!
