CRXTIAN (Christian) hails from the San Francisco Bay Area and was raised in both Florida and California. His DJ style can be described as a hypnotic blend of dirty south funky bass lines and California psychedelic grooviness. Raised by a 90’s rave mother and all around badass, CRXTIAN’s earliest memories of music include House and DnB, as well as other genres such as RnB, Jazz, Classic Rock, Hip-Hop and experimental sounds that have created a lifetime of musical influences.
 
Musically inclined from an early age, CRXTIAN started playing drums and percussion in primary school. He developed a passion for DJing after graduating from high school, and soon became a resident DJ and key figure in launching and promoting several successful parties in the SF Bay Area. In 15 years of DJing, CRXTIAN has opened up for both national and internationally renowned artists (John Summit, Solardo, Ardalan, Desert Hearts, Mr. V, LP Giobbi, Worthy + many more). He landed a coveted internship as a stage hand with the famed Void Acoustics speaker sound system, learning the ins and outs of audio on the West Coast festival circuit, where he realized that his career path lay with music, DJing, and live sound. Working towards his bachelors degree in Audio Engineering, CRXTIAN relocated to Nashville, TN (Music City USA) to continue his education while working at studios in and around Music Row. Since 2020 he’s been producing music nonstop, and this month, he’s celebrating his first record label release on Beatport and Spotify with his single, ’Hyena’, debuting on @wetsignalrecords. Since then continuing with a release out of Miami on Jax Trax Records. From intimate nightclubs to desert raves to private parties, you can catch CRXTIAN curating vibes on the dance floor.

Welcome to my SoundCloud world! I'm deeply devoted to Electronic music specified in Oldskool and Nuskool Hardcore, Breaks, and Jungle, guided by the 'PLUR' ethos and the early 90s rave spirit. Influenced by Eurodance, Breakbeat, Hip Hop, and Hard Trance, with a heartfelt admiration for The Prodigy, my aim is to inspire and invigorate the rave generation.

In my 90s era, a Walkman opened doors to diverse sounds, later fueling my passion for radio production with the birth of Generation X [RadioShow]. Proudly nominated for 'Best Radio Show' at the International Breakspoll Awards 2014 as one of five nominees, I've hosted through the show luminaries like Leeroy Thornhill, Mark Archer, Black Box, Dream Frequency, Liquid, Marusha, Coco Bryce and more.

You are invited to join the ride then for some glowing electrifying music including special interviews, guest mixes, and musical tributes.

Beyond the airwaves, I drive the Strictly Nuskool Blog and contribute to publications like: Iconic Underground Magazine, OOWLR, The Wub Mag, and The Prodigy Fanboy (known for the Prodigy Fanboy Podcasts).

Let's connect through the beats that define our culture and speak to our inner space.
