Somnaut was an experimental electronics/voice duo in NYC in the late 90s. The intersection of science and art was Somnaut's playground. Jane Lecroy, a performance poet & singer, brought her unique vision to raw-yet-beautiful electronic & electro-acoustic constructions by David Last.

In this live track from 1997 you can hear the mysterious, experimental but fun vibe of Somnaut performances, which were always bathed in the light of video projections by Aaron Harder.

A totally obsessed music collector specializing in anything and everything quality, with an unhealthy desire to share and introduce people to sounds they may not have already heard.  

Grew up on a steady diet of hip hop, rock, soul, and r&b and was introduced to the party scene in Detroit & Toronto. Quickly fell in love with Detroit techno after hearing Jeff Mills' 'Live at the Liquid Room'. Sold and promoted live DJ sets burned onto CDs at parties all over the Detroit area in the early 2000's, and began obsessively collecting techno/house tracks in 2003. Decided the collection needed to be shared in 2007, and learned to mix/blend w/laptop and midi controller before having an audio interface, which at the time meant no headphones.  

After many years of being a techno purist, all the other influences began to seep back in, which inspired The Soul Pickle events in 2011. With the help of the rizumu crew, The Soul Pickle has hosted the likes of Eddie C, DJ Nature, Rick Wilhite, Jamie 3:26, Rick Wade, Mike Simonetti, Social Disco Club, Anthony Mansfield, DeWalta, Vincent Lemieux, Sergio Santos, Secrets, Pontchartrain, Dave Aju, and Titonton Duvante!

So far AJ has played in Detroit, New York, DC, Baltimore, and all over Philly. Now enjoying the wonderful world of headphones, CDJs, and occasionally vinyl, he dreams of sharing his diverse taste with music lovers worldwide..
