w/guest:
△▽ DJ 4BZ
(London/Chicago)
Originally from London/UK DJ 4BZ (aka Luke Finn) was first exposed to DJing in the late 80’s whilst at college in Manchester UK. He moved out to USA through work in the mid-90’s and found his way to Chicago where he has been based ever since.
During his time in Chicago he has spun at many venues around the city apart from including Smart Bar, Sonotheque, Green Dolphin Street, and Subterranean. He is perhaps best known as one of the founders of the critically acclaimed Sunny Side Up parties which are still enjoying success in the Chicago area after over 5 great years at Darkroom. Outside of Chicago he has also DJ’d in many other locations from London to New York, and Vienna to Merida, Mexico. His current style is an eclectic blend of sounds from around the world fusing both traditional and contemporary beats. From Afrobeat to Dubstep, and Latin to Broken Beats. However since he has been heavily into the music scene for the last 3 decades, his style takes in a lot of influences so expect anything!

△▽ SOUND CULTURE
(Chicago/El Salvador)
Born and raised in Chicago’s Logan Square neighborhood DJ Sound Culture has always had a great affinity for world cultures and deep music. His passion for both has to a large extent laid the path in front of him for most of his life. In the dj booth DJ Sound Culture is somewhat of an ethno-musicologist or rhythmic cultural chemist of sorts, exploring the world’s sounds and finding the threads that tie us all together globally. From Bhangra to Balkan Beat, African Soukous to Latin House, he knows how to navigate your auditory senses. His live mixes are both dynamic and cohesive, whether you’re a world music enthusiast or dance floor regular, he keeps things interesting and moving smoothly.
Accolades include: Twice featured DJ at World Music Festival Chicago – the longest running world music festival in the country, featured world music DJ at Folk and Roots Festival Chicago 2011, featured DJ at Nomadic World Music Festival 2010, Voted favorite dj by CHIRemezcla representing Chicago’s cutting edge latin music scene for the national En Tu Cuidad campaign.
