Widely considered to be one of the chief innovators in the genre of electronic dance music known as deep house, Kerri Chandler has carved out a unique musical vision brought to life in marathon sets known to go on for 6 hours or more, he infuses elements of soul, jazz, funk, and practically any other dance rhythms to create the vivid sound tapestry unique to him. That has earned this world-class DJ, producer the affectionate nickname the Stevie Wonder of House music.

As a skilled multi-instrumentalist and Dolby Atmos certified recording engineer with a propensity for tinkering under the hood, Chandler strives to understand every aspect of sound recording and amplification. Kerri is constantly pushing the boundaries of recording technology and live-performance sound systems. When this talented DJ, and producer is behind the decks at notable venues as diverse as Printworks in London and Sub Club in Glasgow, you are guaranteed to be awash in quality music that reflects his experience as a global performer. You can never anticipate what you’re going to experience. Seamlessly transitioning from live DJing to live jam session complete with keyboards, live vocals, and loops or perhaps merging mid- 20th century studio grade reel to reels as a mixing source combined with state-of-the-art custom projection mapping design, newly developed by Panasonic to create immersive 3D environments, complete with tracks Chandler blends together while simultaneously interacting with holograms of legendary vocalists that Kerri has collaborated with though out his career.

With a discography spanning three decades, Kerri's first release Super Lover/ Get It Off on Atlantic Records in 1991 set the stage for what was to become a signature sound. His creations launched a wave of admirers and imitators of his deep lush chords and soulful grooves that stir emotions and movement. In his continuous search to inspire and nurture new talent, he forged MadTech Records and the eclectic Kaoz Theory imprints soon followed becoming the flashpoint for such artists as the Martinez Brothers, Seth Troxler, and Tony Lionni.

Kerri having just released his latest album the 24-track homage to international nightlife “Spaces and Places”, jumps headlong into the world of spatial audio with Dolby Atmos This new immersive sound format allows sounds to travel through a space not merely backward and forwards but circles in all directions. With the international support of club owners and engineers, a total of 24 iconic night spots were transformed into recording studios infusing each track with the full sound characteristics of the rooms they were recorded in. Spaces diverse as London's Ministry of Sound, Paris Rex, Berlin’s Watergate, Barcelona’s Razzmatazz, or New York's Knockdown Center creating a whole new layer of complexity and accuracy. “If I wasn’t working doing the stuff I love doing, I’d probably work at Dolby,” Chandler says. “My job became my hobby, and my hobby became my job.”

Kerri's latest series of dates brings all of this time and attention full circle combining the meticulous attention to sound, atmosphere, and craft that ensures that you will be taken on a musical adventure second to none.

DJ W!LD is a Paris-based multi-dimensional artist, he has gone from being a cult favourite of the Paris underground to a globally recognised DJ and producer talent, creating his own blend of house, minimal, techno, breaks and acid. He can work any crowd thanks to his carefully curated DJ sets and his ability to go groovy, deep, hard or dirty whenever required. 

This has led DJ W!ld to be constantly on the road visiting the worlds finest clubs and festivals all while serving up a superb album on REKIDS offshoot Cabin Fever, or EP’s on One Records, Robsoul, Ricardo Villalobos and Luciano's RAL series, 2020 Vision, Moan or Solid Grooves to name a few, DJ W!ld is one the most prolific producers around and is also known for founding his own respected imprints: 

- The W Label that offers up the classic W!ld sound and remixers including Kerri Chandler, Chez Damier, Andres, Honey Dijon and many more. 
- Spit&Die, where the concept is one with his own track and one remix from one legend of electronic music. The first release kicked off with a minimal house masterpiece from the one and only BabyFord. 
- And the newly minted Take a Trip imprint which seeks and supports new talent and established producers releasing various genres like house, minimal, techno, breaks, electro, acid  as well as hosting parties in secret basements in London, it also held its own fetish themed party series in tucked away spots in Paris and that’s just a start. There is plenty more to come from Take a Trip and more of these events are in the works.
 
Aside from being a top producer with a slew of top tracks and record labels to his name he is also an accomplished visual artist. His tongue in cheek social media posts only hint at his playful skills and bumping track selection but he doesn’t play when he is in control of the decks. Long interested in contemporary art and fashion, W!LD has soundtracked catwalk shows for Paris Fashion Week, including for Vivienne Westwood, Thierry Mugler, Christian Lacroix. He also paints, and always works on blending art, lighting and music.

Despite many years in the game, DJ W!ld is relentless in his creative quest and never stops listening and learning, always one step ahead of the crowd, continuing to take risks whilst never compromising his art.
