Chris Widman is a Chicago DJ that defies easy classification. Host of the weekly radio program Abstract Science (since 1997 and a DJ since 1995), he is at the forefront of breaking new styles, crossing genres and re-introducing forgotten music. Whether DJing for the dancefloor or the armchair, Widman is known for his adventurous mixing of dubstep, techno and everything else, creating his own form of crowd-pleasing sonic warfare.

Abstract Science airs Thursdays 10pm-2am CT on WLUW-Chicago 88.7fm.

Influenced by the sounds of Berlin, Detroit, and Chicago, Kiddo's style is a melding of numerous genres of current and classic techno and house music. Her sets may range anywhere from deep house to more dark and sinister techno. Lately she's been moving the dance floors with seamless techno mixes and the occasional jackin' house cut thrown in for good measure. She is known for her enthusiasm behind the turntables, connecting with the dance floor through the combination of a charismatic smile and energetic mixing.

In 2006, Kiddo held a monthly residency at Chicago's Smart Bar, where she produced showcases to introduce internationally respected techno artists to the city's dance music devotees. In addition to her regular appearances around Chicago, she has performed in Madison, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, Cincinnati, Columbus, Buffalo, Miami, Detroit, Pittsburgh, and Northern California. In 2008, Kiddo contributed vocals to Decimal's Technicolor Lover EP on Soma Quality Recordings and hopes to revisit music production in the near future. In 2009, she traveled to Spain to perform at the world famous club Mogambo in Valencia and more recently has enjoyed DJing in Playa Del Carmen, and Cozumel. 

As a vocalist trained in classical and jazz performance, Kiddo has sung with several Chicago choral groups when she's not behind the turntables or dancing her heart out at late-night gatherings in support of her city's vibrant electronic music scene. In her spare time, Kiddo has also acted as a contributing writer for Newcity magazine,  Resident Advisor, and Little White Earbuds. In 2017, Kiddo co-founded the Walking and Falling mentoring and workshop program for woman-identifying and nonbinary music enthusiasts.
