Traxx is a lover of music — one with a passion so intense that it overcomes genre divides to weave an altogether original, exciting, and multi-textured musical fabric which envelops both the avid clubber and the home listener, as well as everyone in between. Not content to be labeled as merely a DJ, a producer, or even a DJ/Producer, Traxx is a self-described “artist of sound.” A sound that is distinctive and highly emotional which defies classification and invites analysis and discussion. From eclectic and avant-garde tunes to old school Chicago underground tracks and far beyond, Traxx hears it all without discrimination, pretension or elitism. Traxx has released music on numerous underground labels in the US and Europe including Gigolo, Relief, Muzique, M/O/S, L.I.E.S., Crème Organization, Rush Hour, Dark Entries, Light Sounds Dark and Offen. His music has come to the world under a bucket load of alias' including Dirty Criminals, XXArt, Mysterio, ViLLain X, Saturn V(with Tadd Mullinix), X2 (with Tadd Mullinix& DMarc Cantu) to shape his unique definition of Jakbeat that's was created amongst JTC and D'Marc Cantu in the early years between 2005- 2007. In addition to releasing music for other imprints Traxx also started his own label Nation in April of 2007 which has allowed him to develop and recontextualize the various aspects of his sound. In 2009 Traxx stepped out into the light with his first full length 'Faith' album under his own name for his Chicago based imprint Nation which received positive response and feedback from around the globe. Like many in Chicago, Traxx was drawn into house music through the legendary WBMX radio shows and two trips to see Ron Hardy at the legendary Music Box. Describing his first experience with house, Traxx recalls "nothing could compare, things were being discovered..this period stays with me because of the intense energy that was applied - it's a feeling, an emotion, a mental state of transcendental connection -a spiritual force with the higher being through the physical vessel of the body." His first release appeared on DJ Hell's Gigolo label in the early 00's under the collective alias The Dirty Criminals which was a Chicago based collective that featured mainly the work of working with collaborators likeCharles Manier, Mystic Bill Torres, Daryl 'Deecoy' Cura, Matt Nee(Kompute), Josh Werner, Stephen Hitchell plus early on work from Jamal Moss aka Hieroglyphic Being. In addition to a number of 12"s Dirty Criminals released, two albums were very well received in Europe - 2004's "Organized Confuzion" and 2006's Collision Between Us And The Damned" which featured a cover of an early unreleased version of "Acid Tracks" by Phuture that was played around Chicago. Traxx also contributed vocals to the track "Let No Man Jack" on Hell's "NY Muscle" album on Gigolo but it's perhaps on his many mysterious 12"s that Traxx has set the ground work for in the last seven years where there's been a constant stream of them burning up dance floors with the new sound of Jakbeat that's shaping the scene by releasing an 'Adjustment Production' for Gavin Russom of DFA's LCD Soundsystem from 1 of his current alias projects as Mutant Beat Dance for a sombre tingling cosmic, deep disco brilliance concept, and also releasing with New York label Rong Records with another excellent 2 track release of 'Another World/New News Is Old News' to releasing a stunning solo project on MOS Deep Under The Poetic Painter M pseudonym, with a frenetic yet hypnotizing house track that echoes memories of downpitched Newbeat material and the hooky coldness of new age, following thru with incredible support and feedback in 2012 then again with another solid production from analog machinists Traxx and Wanzer for another Mutant Beat Dance release for the Rush Hour label with 'Let Me Go' featuring Naughty Wood on vocals that have said that they produced arguably 'the best 80s Chicago house record NOT made in the 80s. -inspired by the early days of house music- In an age of digital perfection Traxx is analog, when he DJs he plays vinyl and when he's in the studio he uses hardware. His sound recalls the past but pushes for the future with an overtly emotional and experimental approach.Their RA profile lists Spectral Sound, Relief Records, Rush Hour Music, Rong Music and 6 more.Recently at public records, Nowadays, Locust Grove · often with I-F, Nightmares on Wax, Palms Trax, none of them here that night

Underneath the warm sun that hangs over Brussels, a tiny three-by-three metre shack pumps out tunes day and night to a dancing crowd of onlookers. LeFtO is at the controls of Kiosk Radio, a perfectly placed wooden hut in the centre of Parc De Bruxelles. “Good day to you all outside the Kiosk, live from the park. Thank you for coming through,” says the soothing voice of LeFtO. The chatroom pings with hundreds of messages from around the globe as the crowds gradually tune in for another session out of leftfield from the Belgian music connoisseur. Lefto Early Bird fuels a hub of listeners with an appetite for new sounds, week in, week out. Becoming a household name at Kiosk Radio, as well as mainstay station Studio Brussel, LeFtO always has his finger on the pulse. A quick peek at the DJ’s Mixcloud reveals a hearty range of genres - with everything from house to rap to jazz and more. Fusing sounds from Belgium’s melting pot of musical talent with his relentless passion for new sounds, LeFtO has gone on to work with major names and labels including Gilles Peterson’s Brownswood Recordings, Blue Note, BBE, Universal Music, SDBAN and many more. Cutting his teeth on jazz and new beat, a genre that moulded the shape of electronic music in 80s Belgium, LeFtO formed his early tastemaker know-how via his dad’s record collection. “My father mostly played jazz at home, he had a serious collection which I still own myself. I was probably 14 years old when I asked him for money to buy some records,” he says. “With a certain pride, most of what I liked was made in Belgium”. More a selector than anything else, LeFtO continues Belgium’s tireless musical legacy through his extensive palate, brimming with flavour. https://linktr.ee/leftoTheir RA profile lists Universal Music, !K7, BBE, Brownswood Recordings and 1 more.Recently at public records, Good Room, Black Flamingo · often with Marco Weibel, Nappy Nina, Haseeb Iqbal, none of them here that night

the whole biography
As an explorer of several sonic palettes since the mid-90s, Martyn's aesthetic traces back to his roots in UK-originated hybrids of bass music with an added flavour of Detroit-influenced jazz. But these days, Martyn is more than just a DJ and producer. His work spans multiple projects, from mentoring emerging artists to platforming new producers through his 3024 label. In 2007, he co-founded 3024 alongside Erosie. The duo have released a celebrated body of work from Jacques Greene, Leon Vynehall and Martyn himself, including Martyn's collaborations with Spaceape and OM Unit. Remixes supplied by Ben Klock and Flying Lotus have also left a stamp on the label's collection. Recently, 3024 has signed fresh talents, including Otik and TSVI / Anunaku. Most 3024 signees stem from Martyn's Artist Mentoring Program on Patreon. Launched in 2020, he uses the Program to mentor producers at all stages by offering one-to-one lessons, group sessions and Q&As with renowned figures like Luke Slater, Skee Mask and dBridge. Martyn connects the Program with 3024 by releasing a selection of his student's work on V/A compilations. The pandemic allowed Martyn to rethink archaic structures in dance music and help producers looking to break into the industry. Whilst on tour in 2022, Martyn meets his students to nurture genuine student-teacher connections. An essential element in Martyn's work, he firmly believes this is a modern, healthy way to support the next generation of artists in electronic music. Like his productions on Ostgut Ton, Brainfeeder and Intercept, Martyn's style of DJing is uncategorizable. He's performed worldwide and helms a residency at Panorama Bar in Berlin, and on the radio, his monthly 'Darkest Light' show on NTS offers a glimpse into his far-reaching world. As Martyn's story unfolds, he keeps community in mind. This is Martyn's post-pandemic way of treating his craft, whether it's co-running 3024, teaching on the Mentoring Program or producing music. Martyn views his work through a conscious lens while blending all disciplines—an approach set to prevail for the entirety of his career.Their RA profile lists Ninja Tune, Warp Records, Ostgut Ton, Hyperdub and 6 more.Recently at public records, Nowadays, Bossa Nova Civic Club · often with rrao, Doygen, Gavsborg, none of them here that night
