M-Dok
DJ / Artist & Cultural Catalyst
M-Dok is more than a DJ—he’s a musical visionary and cultural force from the dynamic streets of Chicago; his musical foundation is deeply rooted in soul, blues, and gospel, influenced by his lineage to King Ernest.
M-Dok’s evolution has been unstoppable. His productions covers wide-range of sounds from close experiences to House, Hip-Hop, Juke, EDM, Techno, and beyond. Notable performances include Navy Pier and Union Station for the James Beard Foundation Chef’s Award ceremony, leading up to Chicago’s iconic Summer Dance at Grant Park. Since 2008, he and his peers have ignited Chicago’s underground scene with exclusive warehouse and underground events, introducing self-produced tracks and distinctive sounds. With a 17-year career, M-Dok’s expertise spans House, Hip-Hop, and Latino genres. He has played alongside legends such as DJ Pierre, DJ Sneak, Mike Dunn, Derrick Carter, DJ Spen, Cole Knight, Bassel Darewish, Guti, KY William and plenty more in venues across the United States.
