Experimental Party Music

“Back when I first heard DJ C's beyond-category sets blaring across Mass Ave, his penchant for mixing hip-hop and jungle, reggae and garage was remarkable and rare in a town, and at a time, when more monolithic genre-based scenes prevailed. To hear hip-hop you'd go here, for reggae there, drum'n'bass over there, but to hear them all, you'd have to see DJ C, whose turn-of-the-millennium sets and early productions for Mashit deftly layered dancehall acapellas, double-time Amen breaks, chill room synths, the snap of boom-bap, and oddly apt pop tunes. Mixing and mashing these all together, DJ C has moved crowds while revealing common ground across worlds of music, opening up new possibilities for listening and dancing along together. 

On Do Radly, a new album of homespun instrumentals, DJ C strips things to the root and brings his longstanding genre-spanning into new focus. While still shaped by an unending quest for musical discovery that leads him far and wide, these latest tracks are more built-from-scratch. They let us hear DJ C's signature synthesis of polyglot pop painted with a more recent, local palette: the soundscapes of everyday family life. 

As digging in the crates meets digging in the sandbox, things close-at-hand come in handy: the lightness of a laptop with ever-timely synths & time-honored drum banks, yes, but also the stuff of daily diversions and lullabies — acoustic guitar, assorted percussion, toy piano, melodica, voice. We hear DJ C's hands at the wheels, tracks brimming with digital detail, but we also hear them on strings, making the most of things in realtime and space, doing radly, not least by giving us this new batch of bespoke beats equally fit for the club, the kitchen, or the virtual dance party.”

Do Radly

DJ C - Porch

The first single from DJ C's “Do Radly” album which drops into the online listening outlets on May 28 2021, “I Didn't” is here to help prepare speakers and earbuds for what's to come.

The album bounces between frenetic sonic experimentation and serene comfort music. “I Didn't” falls right in the middle of that sweet tension where DJ C derives inspiration for the extreme genre blends behind his experimental party music.

Legendary Chicago rapper, street artist, & fashion designer Pugs Atomz grabs the mic and steals the show, rapping over thunderclaps by DJ C. 

Masquerading as a psychedelic dreamscape, “Cheerio” turns around like a cul de sac when the bass drops and Atomz left-brain-right-brain vocals drive uncontrollable head-nodding.

Circe is the second single from DJ C's “Do Radly” album (May 28, 2021). 

Sweeping pulsations of processed 12-string-guitar and bass-heavy dub dreaminess meet propulsive dancehall beats to form “Circe,” DJ C's take on the Electro Organic Sound System classic “Magical Condition.”

The album bounces between frenetic sonic experimentation and serene comfort music and “Circe” falls right in the middle of that sweet tension where DJ C derives inspiration for his experimental party music.
