This 21st label release offers five wonderful and carefully-chosen selections of melodic electronic grooves, ranging from progressive house to techno to melodic techno, produced by a handful of the Windy City’s finest. In yet another year of unprecedented change and challenges, music has been the fabric keeping us united in the face of uncertainty, and this cherry-picked collection of truly top-tier quality songs is being sent out to you all around the world to help close out 2021 – from Chicago with lots of love (and also with a bit of pent-up rowdiness)! 

Rounding out this release is a sublime serving of progressive house titled “Clockwork” by Crystos – a promising newcomer to the label and the Chicago music scene alike. Fusing elements of progressive, melodic tech, and big synth melodies in this composition, he delivers a ticking timepiece-driven piece of music that truly finishes this compilation with an exclamation point. The Gear and Spring Mix makes the groove of the clockwork a focus and leaves a little room for something more involving this tune to come to you in 2022!

From Chicago With Love 2021 EP

Clockwork (Gear And Spring Mix)

Premiere: Crystos "Clockwork" (Gear And Spring Mix) - Vested Recordings

Known to the music world as Crystos, Christian Natiello is a DJ and Producer who gravitated towards electronic dance music early on. After attending Spring Awakening in Chicago in 2014, he knew he had to be behind the decks. Starting out at just 15, he was influenced by the disco and house tracks he grew up with. Combining those influences with his newer taste in progressive and trance music, the project of “Crystos”was born. 

Since launching in 2020, Crystos has played with top names like Cosmic Gate, Ilan Bluestone, Sander Van Doorn, Gareth Emery, Vini Vici, and Kasbo. 

He’s released tracks on Chicago’s Vested and Switzerland’s Enormous Vision, and his sets are all about taking the crowd on an engaging, unpredictable ride through progressive house, trance, and techno.

For the past 2 decades, RJ Pickens has been a leader in building and growing Chicago’s melodic-driven electronic music scene. With nearly 25 years of DJ experience and tirelessly pursuing the perfect mix of deep, progressive, techno, and house sounds.  He rocks venues ranging from intimate to huge, and can go from being the headliner himself to being the supporting act of choice for countless global headliners on the best club and festival events the Windy City has to offer.  RJ is also a principal collaborator in a recently-launched and acclaimed music act called Portals & Parachutes, taking first flight in post-pandemic 2021.  RJ’s record label and music event banner — VESTED — has become synonymous with top-tier progressive electronic sounds.  Vested Recordings, while a relatively young label still, has seen remarkable support from some of the very best artists in the industry.  The event showcases produced under the Vested brand have been consistently showcasing the finest quality in its music bookings for the last 10 years. 

VESTED:  an adjective that means “to hold something completely, permanently, and inalienably — an unwavering commitment.”  In an electronic music sense, it simply means RJ is really serious about our party music, and his work on all fronts speaks for itself.
