Belle and the Boom Box - #House Music with plenty nuff BOOM BOOM BOOM !
Formed  back in 2015 Belle and the Boom Box have been quietly (?) chiseling away at the foundations of a triple A rated, underground BOOM BOOM BOOM HOUSE MUSIC dance act.

DJ Roger (Digital Bionics) came to live in Australia in 2011 from England where he started DJing in 1994 in Glastonbury town, Bristol
and around the fields and forests of Somerset.

After being a part of the early rave scene in London, he left for the countryside of Somerset and settled in Glastonbury town in 1992.

He's mixed in a lot of tents and cafes in Glastonbury festival year after year, bars and clubs in Bristol along with lots of private parties, heavily 
influenced by what he describes as extraterrestrial Techno and other creative dance genres, that have a spacey and experimental edge, along with some melodic uplifting Trance sounds, Future House, Dubstep, Electro Tech, Breaks, Drum and Bass , Electronica, Electro House, EDM, Psy Trance, Pop ,IDM, Good Chill, Weird Trap, Odd Prog.

He left his decks and records in England for the benefit of a younger generation and decided to use a laptop and controller for mixing in Australia 

Roger could also be heard playing as a resident, in Jack’s Bar, Keen St, Lismore regularly, mixing a blend of House, Electro House, Techno, Prog, Breaks, always with a psychedelic, creative or crazy edge.

He is also a regular at Honey Pot Production's beats on tap gigs, as well and the monthly NEMESIS collective in Nimbin, bush doofs, and numerous private parties such as Fashionably Trashed and Triple Treat, 

He's also played multiple gigs for 3rd Eye Productions in Lismore NSW's Hub, which is now the Metropole Hotel in Keen street, Lismore, NSW where he’s also been playing upstairs at the rooftop bar and garden independently and now as a guest with the D’Bakery crew.

Long mixes are his passion, always busy in the headphones looking for a hook or some oddball sounds to throw in.

Most gigs are recorded and uploaded. They can be heard here.

Chris has been influenced by artists like Joey Negro, DJ Dan, Mark Farina, Miguel Migs, Giano and Jamiroquai. Also, Breaks legends DJ Icey and DJ Baby Anne and Techno powerhouses like Timo Maas and Frankie Bones. Chris grew up a classically trained musician.  Raised on Funk, Soul, Jazz and Blues, his influences are evident throughout his mixes and performances! Chris began his DJ career in 1998, and has traversed the dance music landscape. Experimenting with multiple genre sets in his early days saw him garner some nice local support, but he is best known for his unrelenting groovy baselines and energetic style behind the decks!

Chris has been involved with the Central Illinois House Music scene for nearly 2 decades, and along with the FatFunk crew, their hard work is evident in a ripe scene with a nice depth of talent. The Chicago and Midwest dance music scene had a strong impact on many people in central Illinois. This fact is reflected in the many faces of talented DJs across central Illinois. FatFunk was founded in 2012 and is comprised of about a dozen incredibly talented DJs and Artists with a vast level of combined experience. Together, they put on some of the best intimate affairs in the Midwest!!
