    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Renowned for their work in edit culture and contributions to Footwork and Juke, DJ Paypal is a pivotal figure in electronic music. Their portfolio includes official remixes for many artists, among hundreds of bootleg remixes of music from many different realms, and many features across their collaborators’ albums and their own records, resonating globally and finding place in DJ sets worldwide. Their creative output extends across labels such as Teklife, Hyperdub, Planet Mu, and their own label Mall Music Inc. As the leader of Mall Music Inc., the label home to peers like DJ Orange Julius and DJ Mastercard, they've outlined a new take on footwork laden with lush synthesizers and hi-definition sonics, releasing EPs, singles and bootlegs. Paypal’s proper external debut EP, "Buy Now," released on Glasgow imprint LuckyMe, explores soul and disco influences, while the “Sold Out" double-EP on Flying Lotus’ LA-based Brainfeeder label stands as a testament to DJ Paypal's versatility at 160 BPM. 'Paypal’s hyperactive footwork thrives on slicing and dicing the beating heart of disco and boogie' — MIXMAG Since 2013, Paypal has toured clubs throughout the world, from Europe to Asia to America, and played several key events and festivals such as MoMA PS1, Low End Theory, Roskilde Festival, and Dour Festival. Live, Paypal is a psychedelic high octane club workout plan.
    Their RA profile lists Hyperdub, Planet Mu, Brainfeeder, LuckyMe and 2 more.

  • JJJJJerome Ellis

    Virginia, United States of America

    “I have an ongoing practice of spelling my name JJJJJerome Ellis.”

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    I have an ongoing practice of spelling my name JJJJJerome Ellis. I do this because the word I stutter on most frequently is my name. JJJJJerome has the great privilege of being married to poet-ecologist Luísa Black Ellis. They live in a monastery on a creek in traditional Nansemond and Chesepioc territory, aka Norfolk, VA. JJJJJerome dreams of building a sonic bath house! Concepts that organize the artist’s practice include: unknowing, improvisation, fugitivity, illegibility, inheritance, opacity, prayer, gap, contradiction, aporia, eternity, unpredictability, interruption, silence, and devotion. Ellis researches relationships among blackness, disabled speech, divinity, nature, sound, and time. The artist’s body of work includes: contemplative soundscapes using saxophone, flute, dulcimer, electronics, and vocals; scores for plays and podcasts; albums combining spoken word with ambient and jazz textures; theatrical explorations involving live music and storytelling; and music-video-poems that seek to transfigure archival documents. Their debut album, The Clearing (2021), was called “an astonishing, must-listen project” (The Guardian). It was co-produced by NNA Tapes and The Poetry Project, and it was released with an accompanying book published by Wendy’s Subway. Poet/essayist/playwright Claudia Rankine said of the book: “The Clearing is many things: a lyrical celebration of and inquiry into the intersections of blackness, music, and disabled speech; a restless interrogation of linear time; an intimate portrait of the author’s real-time experience of his stutter; a baptism in syllable and sound; and a manuscript illuminated by The Stutter. At its core, Ellis’ metaphor of the clearing becomes a place of possibility and “momentary, transitory, glimpsed liberation.” He invites us to meet him there.” The Clearing won the 2022 Anna Rabinowitz Prize. The artist has received a Fulbright Fellowship (2015), a United States Artists Fellowship (2022), a Foundation for Contemporary Art Grants to Artists Award (2022), a Creative Capital Grant (2022). The artist has received residencies at MacDowell (2019, 2022), Ucross (2021), Lincoln Center Theater (2019), ISSUE Project Room (2021), and La MaMa (2021). JJJJJerome’s work has recently been presented by the Whitney Museum and National Sawdust (New York); Venice Biennale 2023; Haus der Kunst (Munich); Rewire Festival (The Hague); Schauspielhaus Zürich; Chrysler Hall (Norfolk, Virginia); MASS MoCA (North Adams, Massachusetts); the Center for African American Poetry and Poetics (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania); and Oklahoma Contemporary (Oklahoma City). They have received commissions from the Virginia Symphony Orchestra, The Shed, and REDCAT. Ellis is represented by Michaël Gardiner at Heavy Trip, Pascal Mungioli at Stay Service, and Ben Izzo at A3 Artists Agency. The artist’s work has been covered by The Guardian, This American Life, Pitchfork, Artforum, Black Enso, and Christian Science Monitor. Ellis has been a lecturer in Sound Design at Yale University. They received a fabulous music education in the Virginia Beach public school system, and they continued their studies at Columbia University as an undergraduate. Ellis collaborates with James Harrison Monaco as James & Jerome. Their recent work explores themes of border crossing and translation through music-driven narratives. They have received commissions from the Metropolitan Museum of Art and Ars Nova.

    “softchaos is the pseudonym of Tere Stout, the Ecuadorian-American dj, multidisciplinary artist, and dancefloor evangelist.”

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    softchaos is the pseudonym of Tere Stout, the Ecuadorian-American dj, multidisciplinary artist, and dancefloor evangelist. Both thoughtful and commanding, softchaos’ sets are watermarked by their meticulous pairing of groove-driven music along with aggressive percussive tracks in unison, experimenting with genre meticulously in acts of black reclamation. Embracing this practice, their sound embodies reverence to techno while staying locked into the new turn in electronic music, blending with finesse. Their versatility is seen in the range of their schedule, from their one-of-a-kind sets at and Primavera Sound, Sónar Festival, Amsterdam Dance Event and CTM to club nights at RSO, Tresor, Fabric London, Nitsa and Razzmatazz. softchaos is undoubtedly at the forefront of playfully avant-garde and disobedient electronic music at home and international stages alike. Harnessing their punk ethos, and referencing classic landscapes of New York City and Detroit, their selection of techno, breaks, and rebellious sounds offer a transcontinental call and response and an offering to dancefloors everywhere.
