    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Born and rooted in the NYC underground, Amy is a producer, DJ, and sound engineer shaped by her music composition studies at Berklee College of Music, a background that guides her ever evolving sound. Her music moves between intention and play, drifting through house, minimal, electro, deep, dub techno, and bent shades of jazz. Her artistic vision has been shaped by more than a decade of study, digging, producing, mixing, mastering, and living within the underground culture of New York City. She first stepped into the world of production and mixing records at the age of 15 through an internship at a NYC DJ and music production school, where long afternoons in the studio and trips to Halcyon and A1 Records opened the door to a deeper musical world. Her early mentors introduced her to the discipline behind the craft and helped refine her approach to sound. At the age of 17, she began performing at venues that helped shape Brooklyn’s underground dance music scene, such as TBA Brooklyn and Output. Her technical training later grew at SAE Institute NYC, where she explored recording, mixing, and mastering. She continues to explore the layers of her musical curiosity, shaping them into a sound that remains both intricate and personal. She has appeared alongside artists who inspire her, such as Priku, Sepp, Chklte, Cristian AB, Giammarco Orsini, O.bee, Tomas Station, Sweely, DJ W!LD, Acid Pauli, Guy J, Tinlicker, Liquid Earth, & more. Her sound has reached many corners of the scene, from ReSolute to Elements Music & Arts Festival, Apollo Studio, H0L0, Signal, Good Room, Outer Heaven, Knockdown Center, Elsewhere, Members Only, House of Yes, with new chapters on the horizon.

    the whole biography
    As gifted on the decks as he is in the studio, CHKLTE approaches music with a delicateness that defies his towering stature. With vibrant, seductive blooms and deep, syrupy booms, his subtleties climb into the ear like tendrils. Jonathan began sneaking into South Texas clubs at the age of 15 to DJ after countless hours digging through online archives. In 2012, he became a resident of Austin TX and quickly became a regular guest DJ across the state. CHKLTE is now a resident DJ behind the infamous Blacktone agency & party series that sparked out of Austin Texas, which regularly hosts the likes of Dyed Soundroom, Nicolas Lutz, Francesco Del Garda, tINI, Raresh, Praslea , Lamache and Robin Ordell. The move from Jonathan to CHKLTE spurned a series of releases on labels such as OGE, We R The Aliens, Personality Disorder, Vatos Locos, Solid Grooves Raw, Moonfruit, Floorpiece Digital, Melotherapy and Honne Music. He has also launched 2 labels both for vinyl format; CHOKO & Crowded Floor, and has launched his digital label exclusively through bandcamp; ChokoDIGI, where you can personal edits & originals. CHKLTE is now based between Ibiza & the US and can often be found controlling the dance floors of Fabric London, Hi Ibiza, DC 10 Ibiza, Epizode & UNUM festivals in Albania, ADE in Amsterdam, Club der Visionaere, as well as Mexico, Canada, London, Romania, Czech Republic & Bulgaria. He can be often found on lineups alongside Dyed Soundorom, Gescu, The Martinez Brothers, Voigtmann, Nu Zau, tINI, Herodot, Priku, Afriqua and in May 2021 closed Space Miami b2b2b with the legendary pairing of Ricardo Villalobos and Raresh.
