the whole biography
A celebrated cellist during the day and a domineering DJ at night, Waddle is an upcoming open-format New York DJ. His sound is carved from deep/tech house to a recent awakening of European Hard dance and Donk but VERSATILITY has always been a keyword for Waddle; mixes ranging from the cutest minimal tech to the heaviest and darkest techno one might encounter in an outdoor ghettotech rave in Berlin. Waddle has been featured on Seoul Community Radio in Seoul, South Korea, Book Club Radio alongside Tinzo and Jojo in NY, and recently had a debut at Elsewhere Zone 1. Quickly rising as a producer since 2024 fall, Waddle X duco Remix of "Sticky" is at 50,000 + streams on Soundcloud and has been played at different venues in New York, Seoul, Paris and Manila. Waddle is a programmer at Deluxx Fluxx at their newest event series, SWEAT - resident at Half Moon and part of PAN!CROOM, a DJ collective which is quickly rising from the NYC night scene at the moment with monthly residency at Bossa Nova Civic Club. They strive to provide powerful sound and vibrant energy to the audience and encourage the underground music community to express their unique identity. They have also been hosting shows at unconventional venues such as deli bodegas, classical music venue, and more.Their RA profile lists low income $quad.Recently at Rash, Connor Wright Studio, Bogart House · often with y2aura, NIJEII, duco, none of them here that night

“Cutting his teeth as an independent show booker in NYC, Connor Beckett McInerney's love for indie rock is long documented in his decade-long career as a professional freelance music critic and editor, during which his byline appeared in storied publications such as Pitchfork, FLOOD Magazine, and Manhattan's own The Deli Magazine (where he also once served as Managing Editor).”

Cutting his teeth as an independent show booker in NYC, Connor Beckett McInerney's love for indie rock is long documented in his decade-long career as a professional freelance music critic and editor, during which his byline appeared in storied publications such as Pitchfork, FLOOD Magazine, and Manhattan's own The Deli Magazine (where he also once served as Managing Editor). After many sweaty nights in the crowd, McInerney took to the booth in 2021, honing his love of electro, house, and garage through a year-long residency at the now-shuttered Café Rosarito (where he hosted his monthly UNFILTERED party). His selections are frequently heard throughout north Brooklyn, where he's lived since 2018.Recently at Mood Ring, Hart Bar, Nublu · often with ogd, Kweku, LOSI, none of them here that night
