I recently went to the Grand Canyon with my dad and it left us both in awe. What a beautiful view, it was spectacular to see and made me appreciate all the small moments I’ve had, and how all those moments can leave you inspired.

This Saturday, I am happy to be back at with one of my best mates, . When Marsh first announced the Aria concept, I got very excited for the idea, and was happy to see a lot of my favorite tracks come to life. I got even more excited once I heard this was coming to North America and beyond thankful to be a part of his tour.

Come dance, I’ll be on at 10pm, followed by who is quickly becoming one of ’s favorites and core staples.

I feel we live in a special timeline where we find our inner peace and use that to motivate our personal growth. Life is a journey, and lately, creating a balance of mindfulness, practicing gratitude, and peaceful and spiritual practices have provided insight into who I am.

Nurturing other aspects of my life and exploring my spiritual side, this self-discovery phase is a beautiful thing. The more I grow as a person, the more comfortable I am becoming the person I am today and continue to be. I love this journey and am very happy with what life has given me and what it continues to give me.

I love this new series from called ‘Bloom.’ I already feel attached to the idea of letting your inner self continue growing. Lately, a trend I have been seeing at music festivals is seeing a sprout on your head, a symbol to keep growing and what better way to be yourself, than on the dancefloor.

I am happy to partake in the first Bloom event alongside a talented lineup with great musical minds.

♢ , a globally respected DJ for over 25 years, returns to Chicago. His label, , is one of my favorites, as well as his latest comp on Balance with Quivver is a must listen.

♢ , a combined act from two of Chicago’s most impactful and melodic artists, always creates a well-crafted journey.

♢ is one of the best curators, bringing the perfect energy into her sets.

I am excited to dance with you all on July 5th for a daytime event from 2pm to 10pm at in Logan Square along side and

Let’s talk about the privilege of being support for an event and knowing your role. The night is a journey, and the opening DJ, in my opinion, should not be playing predictable tracks. Your job is to crate dig, read the room, build the energy gradually, and set the tone for the headliner respectfully. Yes, there are nights when the room is dead or busy; that’s when you feel the room and adapt.

I’ve been seeing a lot of DJs be proud of a lazy tracklist that consists of tracks played on popular radio shows or what’s charting on Beatport. Those sets lack personality and diversity. Your job is being a DJ, not a playlist selector.

To quote one of my biggest influences of all time :
“you’re in a position where you can play stuff that people don’t know and blow people’s minds, but if you just chose to play stuff they know just to get a reaction, that’s just being lazy. There’s no challenge there.”

Make it make sense.

I’ve been off socials to start the year. I wanted to plan out my year with many goals, both for myself, as JD, and as well with ixto. Things took an unexpected turn, as my father had to undergo surgery. I am happy to share that the surgery went well, and my dad is recovering well. I want to thank everyone who reached out and gave my family your support. Moments like these make me appreciate the community, and those who know me know how much I value community. It’s heartwarming to see humans being humans and how much that can lift an individual.

That said, I am happy to share my first event of the year and go into full-force mode. Fresh off his third studio album ‘Equanimity’, makes his return at ’s Grand Reopening Party this Friday, January 26th.

Progressive House means so much to me, and it is nice seeing this new generation of artists become the face of the genre. Spencer Brown quickly comes to mind when I think of which artists are pioneering the way. Alongside his beautifully written originals and edits, Spencer is a great music selector. I know he digs deep for his selected cuts, a mastermind who knows how to read the room and take you on a cinematic journey.

Join me, alongside at Spybar’s Reopening Party alongside their new sound system overhaul and new booth. Definitely looking forward to this all night dancing journey.

🎈🎈ANNOUNCEMENT🎈🎈

What a year 2023 has been. I accomplished a lot of incredible milestones in 2023, from playing at Miami Music Week to kicking off my first international festival at Anjunadeep Explorations. I am incredibly grateful for every experience and more appreciative of everyone supporting me since day one. Many beautiful things are happening in 2024, but for now, let's celebrate the year with my last DJ Gig of 2023 at my second home, with .

If there is an artist's sound who I know is a pioneer at capturing the moment and energy on the dancefloor, one of the first names that comes to mind is .

Enamour has become a definitive name of the dance floor, creating masterful soundscapes with no boundary of range: his productions infuse the expressive melodies of deep house, the hypnotic power of progressive house and alluring momentum of dark techno. Today, Enamour's world is limitless. His ability to effortlessly maneuver across the vibrant spectrum of house and techno both in his original productions and dynamic sets has captivated dance floor movers and tastemakers alike.

Join me, alongside my bb , at this beautiful night of incredible music, next Friday, December 15th. Who knows, maybe 🎅🏽Santa Prog🎅🏽 may be in town. 👀

Over the years, there have been many influential artists who have shaped and cultivated a genre. However, there are only a few who have had longevity in their music careers that have spanned over three decades. ’s longevity has solidified his placement as one of Progressive House pioneers and continues to do so with his brand, alongside his legacy Global Underground and Hope Recordings iconic releases. Also known to be half of Way Out West, and having early inspirations from reggae and and indie music, his DJing is an art and one that takes you on a journey.

I am happy to announce to hand off the decks to such a legend. Nick Warren is one of my personal favorites, and this night will be nothing short of magical moments. A dancefloor full of emotion and trance awaits, pushing new boundaries with that underground progressive sound.

See you there alongside at on Saturday, Nov 25th.

Hi, today is World Mental Health Day. We live in a world where many struggle to express our thoughts. We live in a world where we sometimes feel shame or guilt for who we are, but sometimes, we need a reminder that we are okay. I even struggle with that. It's a s**t feeling when you are low because I know, by first-hand experience, how it's like feeling at your lowest.

I know there are times when we have no answers and feel vulnerable; however, once you find a safe place to be yourself, the world feels better. Some of us deal with emotional abuse and neglect; nobody should ever feel that way. Sometimes, you need to reach out, and sometimes, you won't get your answers, but as long as you find a comfort zone and a safe space, it does make the world feel a little better. It's okay to be vulnerable.

It's okay to be you and be proud of that. Be a good friend and be there for your loved ones, but also be there for yourself. Everyone is allowed to grow. It's okay to have a bad day. And always show love, spread love.

The photo posted coincidentally was taken four years ago today in Prague on a memorable night running around the old town when happiness peaked into the next day's early morning hours. A lot has changed since then, but those memories leave a lasting memory eternally.

Those who have known me over the years know how much of an obsession I've had with —a Berlin-based music label creating a culture alongside its audio-visual experiences. Innervisions has developed a culture with its multi-dimensional music and artists, including .

Continuously on an exploration to push the boundaries, for years, I've been a fan of Jimi Jules, with his early releases on Innervisions on their annual Secret Weapons EPs to his latest album +, alongside releases on and .

One inspiration that keeps me motivated and excited for new talent is when innovative and forward-thinking events stand out.

has been hitting the spot as of late with their new Lively Series at and I am very excited to be part of this new series. Join me on August 5th as makes his Chicago debut.

Nils Hoffmann has been a quick-rising talent; his sophomore album on ‘A Radiant Sign’ has quickly become one of my favorites. As a classically trained pianist, Nils grew up listening to producers like Paul Kalkbrenner and Trentemoller, and was inspired to start producing melodic, deep, and progressive house. Now as one of the most exciting up-and-coming electronic artists in the world, Nils has his sights set on following in the footsteps of some of his favorite musicians and leading the charge as the next generation of electronic producers and live acts.

His live setup is truly a masterpiece. Expect a very intimate show, with beautiful music and melodic sounds from the young Berliner.

Hope to see you there alongside
