Jaxson Keys first gained his affinity for electronic music on the grimy snow-covered streets of Reno, Nevada where he was born and raised. As a wee lad he began sneaking his way into underground warehouse parties, where he was first baptized by the holy water of silky smooth bass and the pulsating 4 to the floor rhythms of mothafuckin house baby! 

Jaxson spent his college years in the Pacific Northwest, a world capital of digital design and creative exploration, where he spent his time studying new musical ideas and soaking in the sounds of a completely unique electronic music culture. 

Between the sweat infused warehouse walls of Reno and the roaring 808s of the PNW, Jaxson’s experiences in the underground electronic music scene has undoubtedly inspired the fusion of thundering baselines, vibrant leads, and soulful vocals that run through the pulsing veins of his music today. 

Mr. Keys has since relocated himself to good Ol’ Los Angeles. Todays mecca’s of electronic exploration. You can regularly find him in the kitchen cooking up some sauce..... some saucy beats for your ears. 

Come along for the journey my friends. We’re going for a ride.

Raised on the South Side of Chicago, Vic rose to public awareness as a member of the eclectic hip-hop band Kids These Days and founder of the Chicago collective SAVEMONEY alongside Chance The Rapper and other local upstarts Joey Purp and Peter CottonTale. His solo debut mixtape INNANETAPE dropped in 2013, igniting immediate accolades (including a spot on the XXL Freshman cover in 2014), and a fortuitous introduction to Jay Z that led to a record deal with Roc Nation. Mensa went on to help Kanye West pen his esoteric song “Wolves” from The Life of Pablo, drop three critically acclaimed EPs (2016’s There’s A Lot Going On, 2018’s Hooligans, and 2020’s V TAPE) and his debut full length The Autobiography (2017), as well as furthering social causes in his hometown through his nonprofit SAVEMONEYSAVELIFE. In both music and his social activism, Vic challenges the American system responsible for a history of overcriminalization, racial injustice, and issues that affect the lives of people in underserved communities, while showcasing profound levels of consciousness and self-reflection.
