the whole biography
In every set, Union brings a refined yet unpretentious approach, where the unexpected becomes a defining feature. Whether spinning under low lights in an intimate setting or commanding a larger dance floor, Union lets the music breathe—each record flowing seamlessly into the next, creating a rhythm that unites. As co-founder of Cause & Effect—a Brooklyn-based party that has grown by spotlighting local artists beloved by New York’s dance community—Union has been instrumental in curating a culture of authenticity and raw talent. Recently, Cause & Effect celebrated a major milestone with its first international edition in Berlin, where Union and co-founder Shameless Deejay continue to attract a loyal following that values musical exploration and innovation. This is Union: no gimmicks, no constraints—just the pure, evocative sounds of a dedicated crate-digger, bridging old and new with a singular style.Recently at Eavesdrop, Jupiter Disco, Studio 151 · often with Suasimodo, Ali Berger, Andrew Devlin, none of them here that night
