Johnny Chaos Revolution Radio Mix

Over 100 cities on 3 continents… Over 20 residencies in Chicago alone… Johnny leave’s crowds wondering what just hit them, and yearning for more!  

Chicago 1999 - Johnny was making a name for himself in the after-hours scene. It was there he caught the ear of several club owners, and within six months of buying turntables, Johnny had three residencies in Chicago, including Club XL – the biggest “After-hours” club in the city. 

The residency offers poured in, including a key residency with PURE Promote Group. With clubs at capacities, PURE started selling out theater shows with premier international DJ talent. With a key residency, Johnny was the first local DJ to play in front of thousands of music lovers at all of Chicago’s theaters and festivals with the Top DJs in the world.

In 2004, Spundae saw Chicago as a key market to infiltrate. Announcing their birth in Chicago, they proclaimed Johnny Chaos as "The hardest working DJ in Chicago" and their premier resident DJ. Later that year, Johnny was featured in UR Chicago, the most widely distributed nightlife magazine about Chicago, in which he was included in the exclusive list of "Who's Who in Chicago's nightlife". He was also featured as an "Up and coming DJ" in DJ Mag, and in an article about the "most influential DJs in Chicago" in the Chicago Sun Times. His endeavors earned him a top 3 ranking in the "Top DJs in Chicago" poll with Bad Boy Bill and Derrick Carter. He was also nominated multiple times "Best DJ in Chicago" in the annual Local-Sound club polls, held through Chicago's many club-related message boards. Johnny headlined the premier Exotic-Erotic Ball at Crobar Chicago (where he was a resident DJ), voted "Worlds #1 wildest and sexiest party" by E Entertainment. 

Johnny also became involved in promotions with Chicago dance radio stations B96, Q101's Sonic Boom, and Energy 92.7& 5. Johnny was a rotating guest DJ/producer on the top Chicago underground mix radio show 'Clubland Friday Night'. He has had mixes featured on over 100 radio shows and over 200 websites/podcasts worldwide. 

In 2005, Johnny was at full steam. PURE announced a partnership with the opening of Chicago’s newest super-club, Sound-Bar (which was nominated "Best Nightclub" at the 2005 Dance Music Awards at the Winter Music Conference) As was the trend of the times, they chose Chaos to be the front-man resident DJ when it opened. PURE and Sound-Bar also chose resident DJ Johnny Chaos to mix the first four "Sounds of Sound-Bar" promotional CDs. In Chicago, Johnny has opened or headlined more prime events than any other DJ. As PURE's number one resident, they relied on Johnny to keep the dance floors packed and jumping, whether by himself, or with the many international headliners they booked. 

In 2006, PURE and the UR Chicago teamed up for the sixth time to throw the “FUTURE FORWARD NEW YEAR'S EVE” party. Record attendance exploded making it the fourth largest NYE party in the United States. Out of three rooms of music, Johnny was the only DJ in the history of the event to have a room named after him - “The Chaos Underground Lounge” (which he managed). 

In 2007, Chicago’s mega-club Vision (aka Castle) and the dark and sexy Spy-Bar were home to the majority of the international music scene; and in the balance of his touring schedule, Johnny played regularly at both. Vision recognized Johnny’s ability to deliver an amazing vibe, and offered him a dedicated monthly residency, aptly called “HOME”. 

Feeling satisfied that he had accomplished all he could in Chicago,  Johnny wanted to slow his DJ pace and focus on production and relocated to South Beach. However, after rocking dancefloors in Miami for over a decade, Johnny has moved back to Chicago to bring it all back to his hometown...so get ready Chi-Town....heeeeeeere's Johnny!
