the whole biography
Continually making waves and shaking up the world of house music with his eclectic and unpredictable palette of sounds and styles since 1994, Junior Sanchez is one of dance music's most prolific artists. Born and raised in New Jersey, Junior first cut his teeth at some of the hottest clubs in NYC and it was here that he meticulously perfected his craft to become one of the most in-demand DJs in the music industry. His relentless work ethic and innovative, forward-thinking style has attracted attention & respect from his peers and major artist's alike Junior’s catalogue is almost overwhelmingly impressive, with releases on some of dance music's most established labels including Defected, Relief, Mad Tech Records, Circus, Strictly Rhythm, Nervous, Snatch, recordings to name a few. Add to that an impressive list of production remix credits for artists including Madonna, Gorillaz, Jamiroquai, Chrvches, Azealia Banks, Cassius, Ariana Grande and Teyana Taylor, and you have an artist that never fails to deliver the goods. 2019 was a prolific and productive year for Jr and 2020 has already starting off in similarly impressive fashion. His collaboration with Roger Sanchez & DJ Sneak as the S-Men has already created a buzz in the industry, and their debut album is in the works with Junior 's highly-anticipated sophomore album slated for release later this year. His releases have clocked up millions of streams apiece on Spotify, and his label Brobot Records continuously releasing top-level tracks, and it’s clear that Junior is in the form of his life. And if this isn’t enough Junior just started KULTUR together with Demuir. Within the pairs new project and future brand; KULTUR seeks to unify and educate the scene, creating their own movement for today. With their own music, parties, fashion and movement, KULTUR brings together the young and the old - people from all walks of life - under the feelings ultimately born in the underground dance music culture. KULTUR's release schedule is set with an EP by Kerri Chandler with remixes by Josh Butler and more in addition to upcoming EP's by DJ Sneak, Kristy Harper, Carlo Lio and of course Demuir & Junior Sanchez. 2019 saw headline performances at Ultra Music Festival in Miami as well as Korea, Singapore and Croatia, and with upcoming releases on Classic Music Company, Robsoul, Stereo and more Junior’s sound continues to resonates with both DJs and fans and he remains one of dance music most beloved artist: it’s Junior’s house, just the way we like it.House on 72, Tech House on 20, Deep House on 4 and Electro House on 8. styles on their catalogued releasesReleased on Brobot Records (2), Armada (4) (1) and Let There Be House Records (1); their RA profile also lists Yoshitoshi, Defected Records, Robsoul Recordings, Saved Records and 6 more. labels on their catalogued releases and on their RA profileoften with Griffin Maxwell Brooks, Jojo Lorenzo, Tinzo, none of them here that night

the whole biography
From Paris and Berlin to Lisbon, Marrakech and Indonesia - Christian has paved his way around the world into the ranks of selectors ushering in the electronic renaissance you see here before you. With backgrounds in fashion, fine & culinary arts - Tokyo’s idea of a dance floor could be compared to a painting or a well plated dish. His sound is comprised of deep emotion & strategic choices ranging from velvety House to magnetic Techno, warped Breaks and all in between the spectrum of dance music. Christian Tokyo has graced all but a few clubs here in New York - from Bronx house parties to the edge of Ridgewood. Now retiring a 3 year long run of weekly parties at NYC’s cherished bar - Home Sweet Home; Tokyo moves on to focus his time and energy on playing in more countries, building a namesake party in NYC and releasing forthcoming independent projects of his own. Having already been featured on video & radio platforms (NTS, Rinse, Lot Radio etc.) and already performing alongside newer artists and classic NYC legends like the Bronx’s world renowned duo the Martinez Brothers and James Blake (to name a few) Tokyo continues to step forward as a premier selector in a new wave of DJs firmly taking up sonic arms to represent their hometowns. Being raised out of a musical household with mentors from iconic underground New York City parties and establishments from young (The Loft & Limelight) solidified Christian's interest and dedication to his role in continuing the history of dance music. Expanding community around dance music and holding space for new and older members is Tokyo’s ultimate goal and if you’ve been fortunate enough to make his acquaintance at least just once - one would fully understand.
