their own biography
the whole biography
Eric Umble is a Brooklyn-based DJ, sound artist, clarinetist, and party producer passionate about cultivating a thriving local dance music community. An acclaimed and award-winning classical musician with a focus on experimental music, Eric's love of repetition and extended forms made his jump to DJing a natural step. Eric is heavily influenced by Detroit Techno, New York house, and experimental modernism. He explores the intersections of multiple musical genres in his sets to create Techno-forward sonic worlds that evoke queerness, modernity, and urban life while striving to articulate our shared contemporary culture in today's world. A versatile artist with experience DJing across a spectrum of spaces and venues, Eric loves meeting the moment for any party's energy with his own unique musical voice and approach. As founder, lead producer, curator, and resident artist of the FACETIME and QUALITY TIME parties (founded 2019), Eric is a regular presence on the New York scene and regionally. They have DJ'ed at New York's finest clubs including BASEMENT, Nowadays, H0l0, Mansions, Jupiter Disco, Market Hotel, Trans-Pecos, and he is currently a resident artist at Bossa Nova Civic Club. Beyond New York, Eric has shared their driving, hypnotic, uplifting, melodic, and groovy sound across the country at parties and raves above and below ground. Highlights include VOID (Philadelphia, PA), Intimät (Denver), SYIT's Techno Cabin (NYC / PA), Little Mutants (Lancaster, PA), the B-Side Lounge (Cleveland), the Orange Room / SPKRBOX (Detroit), and Sound Space at Deluxx Fluxx (Detroit). ericumble.com | soundcloud.com/eric-umbleAmbient on 1, Deep Techno on 1 and Contemporary on 1. styles on their catalogued releasesReleased on Neuma Records (1) and QEONE (1). labels on their catalogued releasesRecently at public records, The Chocolate Factory, Bossa Nova Civic Club · often with Mark Holcomb, Riccardo Tavarez, Madison Moore, none of them here that night
