Rapture Radio 048 // JRynecki

As a DJ I sometimes try too hard. I envision moments in my head for what I want when I perform. At times, I manifest those moments. Most of the time though, I don’t. When expectations and reality do not align, disappointment follows. Aligning both what I envision and what is real is as simple as guiding the jog wheel on the CDJ to match two songs back into count, but it’s not easy. 

Evaluating the present, feeling out the room, pulling yourself into the moment, be here now without trying to plan out what’s next. Do that, and the crowd will love you for it. 

This mix is inspired by a few times this year where I aligned the present and expectations by allowing myself to be in the moment. The magic I then created did not manifest itself in the way I originally envisioned, but it was magic all the same. I hope it brings you the same amount of joy I found pulling myself into the present.

The Gift

This set is very different genre-wise from what I’ve made before, I realize it won’t be for everyone, but in terms of storytelling and curation, this is a classic JRynecki mix. 

Before I became a self-proclaimed house music head, I fell in love with liquid drum & bass. In my unconscious impossible pursuit of becoming a music snob in my mid- late 20’s, I disregarded anything I didn’t listen to at the time as music of my past, like something I had outgrown and could disregard. 

  Good music is timeless, and over the last few years, I found my way back to the genre that I loved so much in my early raver days and realized I still love it today. Coincidently, I also started to notice some of my favorite producers diving into the liquid genre with a few limited LP’s. Anthony Mea, Janeret, among others. 

  Heavy basslines of classic drum & bass are still present, yet the sub-genre of liquid can be much more melodic- filled with powerful sassy vocals and a wide range of organic instruments.   

 I love listening to this genre during idea creation, coupled with a cup of coffee, on a drive, or during a workout. I find it extremely therapeutic, I hope this mix does the same for you, enjoy!

Liquid Coffee & Ideas

I’ve come to realize how much I love and appreciate the transition between tracks more than individual songs alone. Transitioning in life can be hard at times, living in that transition and blending harmoniously into what’s next is something I always strive for (though don’t always succeed at). Music is a teacher for me that never stops giving me hope and confidence - there’s always a way to create something even while things change and life is on the move.   

I really challenge myself with these mixes, working with different elements of music theory to find the perfect combination between songs and moods. Weaving in more major chords vs strictly all songs in minor chords to create tension and release, layering in vocals to supplement songs that are already well produced on their own.

Excited to share this with everyone. I started this months ago in Santa Cruz while traveling for work, delayed and plagued by a bit of creator’s block and self-doubt that I could ever finish it. It’s come together better than I anticipated, my newest mix and my personal favorite I’ve made yet.  

Enjoy :)

Santa Cruz To Chicago

This mix has been in my creative pipeline for almost 2 years now. With patience, the many pieces of it finally came together for me recently.

Fall is my favorite season and I usually associate this time with nostalgia and change. For me, it’s a time of reflection and introspection.

Many songs on the tracklist make use of guitar, piano, or other organic instruments to help with the emotive and pensive nature of the mix. Through vocals, you’ll hear a few familiar throwbacks, two of which are original unreleased edits I created myself. Others are timeless gems, woven in with samples from a number of genres and artists. Radiohead, Calvin Harris, Usher, Kylie Minogue among many more, all tastefully mixed into to deep progressive house mix to reflect on the season and year so far.

Enjoy! 🙏

Falling Into 2023

I’ve had the pleasure and opportunity of living in Playa Venao, Panama over the last month. My family is from a small town called Guarare en route to this particular beach, I’ve been visiting this place for as long as I can remember.

From an empty beach with one bohío restaurant and a handful of surfers, this place has blossomed into an international surf destination and dance music hub, while still keeping a small beach town feel. 

This mix is not the sound of Playa Venao, think of this more as an interpretation of my memories of this beautiful place, expressed through song. Enjoy :) 

__________________________________________________________________________

He tenido el placer y la oportunidad de vivir en Playa Venao, Panamá el último mes. Mi familia es de un pueblo llamado Guarare, en camino a esta playa, he estado visitando este lugar desde que tengo memoria.

De una playa vacía con un bohío y unos pocos surfistas, este lugar se ha convertido en un destino internacional de surf y un centro de música, sin dejar de mantener la sensación de un pequeño pueblo de playa.

Este mix no es el sonido de Playa Venao, piensa en esto más como una interpretación de mis recuerdos de este hermoso lugar, expresado a través de canción. Disfurta :)

Playa Venao Sunrise ✨ 🏄‍♂️

There is a particular moment in my future that I keep envisioning for myself - the first time I perform as an event headliner; proper sound system, packed crowd, 2 hours or more to play. This moment is by no means a career peak, but an important milestone among many. 

I have a story that I want to tell, a quilted narrative of my many life experiences - expressed through song. I’ve been inspired by many top tier performances by some of the greats in dance music - Laurent Garnier, Kolsch, Dixon, Mira, DJ Koze, Eric Prdyz, Above & Beyond, among many many more. 


These headliners helped spark something in me that I want to continue to pass on as a performer - hope, inspiration, motivation from an internal source, pure momentary bliss that allowed me to solve my own problems. Putting on a show to conjure up magic that envelops the dance floor and brings out the best in humanity. 

This mix is my first attempt at the vibe and essence I want to capture during a JRynecki headliner set. The last hour or so (from 60 minutes into until 2 hours and 4 minutes), is some of the best music I’ve ever composed as a DJ. Peak JRynecki magic of combining and transitioning between major and minor keys, cinematic big sounds, higher tempo, layering and combining loops and harmonies utilizing 3-4 CDJs, original edits and acapella mashups, and lots of breakbeat. 

As an event attendee, this kind of set would feel like a movie, one where you’d be glued to the dancefloor throughout the ebbs and flows of the intended journey.     

I typically produce my Soundcloud sets in Ableton, allowing me to save progress, make flawless transitions, and work at my own pace. While there are many benefits to this process, this also causes me to overanalyze and work forever without a deadline. This set, however, is intentionally live, done in one take with 3 CDJs and a lot of love.

It’s intended for a live audience on a big sound system, this kind of set will translate well at the gym, on a long drive, traveling, or simply dancing.  Enjoy!

The Headliner Set

John is a DJ and music producer from Chicago and Panama on a mission to inspire those on the dance floor with a sense of presence and abundance. Allowing you to outsmart your smartphone is his main objective during every performance, blending genres, and layering sounds to create emotion and energy to create a journey for those in attendance. 

“This was such a fun set to play. The sounds you’ll hear are an emotional snapshot of where I am in life and I wanted to pass that feeling on. I was able to truly DJ and express myself in such a unique way to an attentive, fun, and engaged audience at an incredible event. The night that took place before, during, and after this set was one of my favorite nights out in Chicago and I’m still riding high from such a perfect evening.” - John

A Tale from John Rynecki - Summer of Sol 2023 Dj Set

Recorded set from my first ever Liquid drum and bass performance with UAGC and Big Brain this past Saturday (December 2nd, 2023 / Chicago, IL) 

I’m a House music DJ with a love affair for this particular genre of drum and bass, a love affair that goes back to 2013. The genre has such a wide range, it can be jazzy, sexy, and melodic. The pretty higher elements of songs contrast beautifully with gnarly basslines creating such a fun atmosphere and vibe.   

It’s also a genre that lends itself well to the dramatic, and the ability to layer songs at half time is a huge creativity bonus. Using 3-4 CDJs, you can really go bananas and blend in and make new songs out of thin air. I was able to layer in multiple favorite songs and artists on top of stripped down DnB percussion without it coming across as cheesy or obnoxious - Above & Beyond, George Fitzgerald, Kerala Dust, Keinemusik, Eric Prydz, Thievery Corporation to name a few song cameos. This was a pleasure to perform, enjoy 🙌

Live at Liquid Jungle - Recorded DnB Set (12.02.2023)

I love things that are low effort and high reward - especially something that comes easy while flexing a muscle as a DJ and artist. 

Composing studio mixes comes super naturally to me, I have so much fun making them, and the reaction on SoundCloud to this particular genre for me is always overwhelmingly positive.

This is something I’ve been holding out on, making deep house studio mixtapes, since the fall of 2022 (all my mixes from 2023 were on CDJs). I paused making these out of concern for spreading myself too thin while diving into music production last year.   

The last few weeks I’ve been digging into my process as a producer and working on my signature sound - by doing so I’ve been able to hone on the vibe and sound that is my niche as an artist to exploit. 

Introducing - “Sunday Morning Groove” a cozy, vibey mix series to showcase some of my favorite music while giving me a platform to show off new incoming unreleased music- imagine a rainy Sunday morning at home, smooth jazzy, sexy, warm tones playing off your record player, while raindrops patter over a big beautiful window. perfect for daydreaming, cleaning, relaxing while taking that first sip of coffee or tea.

I’ve wanted to make a personal mix series for a few years now and I’m very happy I waited for the name to come to me naturally, enjoy!

Sunday Morning Groove 001

“Projecting the Past” by JRynecki is an absolutely delightful deep house cut with an infectious breakbeat UK 2-step percussion groove swing that just blankets you in the most warm soft fuzzy furry feeling-great sonic sensation.  It recently won itself an exclusive one-of-a-kind vinyl pressing at this year’s ADE (Amsterdam Dance Event) after a listening panel deemed it the winner out of all the entries they auditioned.  Not bad for a first-ever release for this Revive community leader and exceptional human, eh?  In a world full of distractions, giving someone the space to outsmart their smartphone is the best gift this world traveler would love to give you all.

VEST027 // Various Artists – From Chicago with Love 2023 EP

This 27th label release offers seven wonderful and carefully-chosen selections of melodic electronic grooves, ranging from breakbeats to progressive house to melodic techno to deep house, produced by a handful of the Windy City’s finest newcomers to Vested Recordings.  Music has continued in proving to be the fabric keeping us united in the face of uncertainty, and we’re genuinely proud to showcase some truly top-tier work from some of our chosen family here in our home city.  To all of you the world over, from us in Chicago – with love.

JRynecki - Projecting The Past (Original Mix)

Presenting: Sunday Morning Groove 004 - The Progressive Mix

My sound has evolved over time, but one constant through my journey as a performer has been storytelling. The ability to tell stories through music is something I owe to my roots in progressive house.

I originally created this mix for @VestedChi, and it aired on Di.fm/progressive on SiriusXM back in January. It’s a mix that feels deeply personal and true to my progressive roots.

This mix was crafted from the beaches of Playa Venao, Panama, where I’ve spent many winters soaking up inspiration from nature and community.

I’m sharing this mix to honor the shift in seasons—not just the weather, but the seasons of my life as an artist. This is my first December in three years spent away from Panama, and while winter in Chicago feels cold and unfamiliar, it’s also a reminder of how much I’ve grown, adapted, and embraced change.

Enjoy :)

deep story nr. 223 | movement | by JRynecki

My take on Childish Gambino’s “Feels Like Summer.”

I wanted to honor the original while giving it a different lens. Layered breaks, rolling basslines, and a touch of minimalism give the vocals a new space to breathe.

It’s darker than the original, but still carries the warmth and hope that made the song timeless. For me, this remix is a small act of optimism and hope in dark times.

One of my favorite sets I’ve ever performed, my opening set for @ddublon on 10.16.25 at Garcia's Chicago. 

Back in 2017, I decided that I wanted to be a Deep House DJ and producer. Over time, that identity has evolved. Deep House is more a form of storytelling and performance style than it is a genre. 

This set felt like a payoff for years of intentional curation, growth, and refining my sound as an artist. Excited to share it with the world, enjoy!

Sunday Morning Groove 005 - Dublon direct support 10.16.25

Earlier in March, I had the opportunity to play an open decks night at a venue in Williamsburg. It was my first time performing in New York and it was right at the onset of panic caused by the current predicament we’re in. There still was a debate on whether it was safe or responsible to be out and about. 

I gave this mix my all despite the cloud hanging over the city. As a DJ, I believe that it’s my fiduciary obligation to challenge you as an attendee to expand your comfort zone and give you something you never knew you wanted. That along with keeping you present and in flow to enjoy yourself where you are. I attempted to do just that. 

I could tell you deep interconnected stories of where and when I discovered every song in the tracklist. All the songs I choose to play are from different important episodes in my life reflected by people who have had a profound impact on me. Just like the songs, my friends I managed to wrangle out to this night were a rag tag group of amazing people from different times. This mix is my no means perfect, but it's truly John Rynecki. Enjoy!

Lean Into It

Opportunities to perform this year have been few and far between for the obvious unprecedented happenings that make up 2020. While I miss DJing and nightlife more than I care to admit, this year has challenged me to scratch my creative itch in unique ways. Here is my first studio mix that I’ve created in Ableton, comprised of some of my favorite songs I’ve discovered over the past few years. Weaving this story together in Ableton was a completely different monster than DJing, yet the process has been a welcome and rewarding endeavor that I look forward to mastering.  

Enjoy!
