    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Born in New York, Jared Maharaj has built his reputation in the city's underground on instinct over formula. His sets are anchored by deep, driving basslines and move restlessly between warm, floor-ready house and hypnotic, dubbed-out techno — always chasing the feeling of the room rather than a fixed destination. That refusal to be pinned down has earned him spots alongside international talents like Youandewan, Boris Werner, and Giammarco Orsini, and collaborations with some of New York's most respected promoters and venues including Golden Record, Vigilante, Signal, and 333 Stagg. A residency with Ibiza Stardust Radio has extended that reach further. Beyond the decks, he co-runs E'Klektik, a party championing range across house and techno — rooted in a shared musical lineage stretching back to New York's earliest dance music days.
