Picture the scene…

December 1994, the day after his 9th birthday.  There’s a boombox at his feet, antenna stretched to the sky, blank cassette tapes to his left, radio dial tuned in.  The intro of his favorite song begins playing as he hits the record button on his most cherished birthday gift.

That day, unbeknownst to him, a DJ was born.

B Kühl (Josh Kuhl) hails from just north of Chicago, the birthplace of house music, so it’s no surprise that his heart beats at 128 bpm.  He’s been at this thing, sharing his love of music with people, for 13 years.  In the 90s, the likes of Fatboy Slim, Daft Punk, Roni Size, and Kraftwerk graced his headphones.  In recent years, he’s drawn inspiration from artists like the late DJ AM, Girl Talk, 2manydjs, A-Trak, and Armand Van Helden.

He caught his first big break back in 2012, opening for Timeflies to a sold-out crowd at Majestic Theatre in Madison, WI.  Since then, he’s travelled the world, bringing his music to crowds of all shapes and sizes.  He currently holds three residencies at clubs around the country, and has his sights set on 2017 to take this ride worldwide.

While cutting edge he may not be…experienced, focused, and addicted to the power of dance music and the roar of a crowd he most certainly is.  What started with a boombox and blank tapes has now led to CDJs and a booming sound system.
