Club Drippy is the amorphous moniker of Jonathon Freund, Chicago native and co-founder of electronic powerhouse Pixel Grip. Taking inspiration from sweaty raves, the ocean, and queer joy, Club Drippy absorbs and reflects his experiences through producing, DJing, and writing.
As resident DJ and promoter of DiSCOTHEQUE, Drippy presents his record collection with elements of synthpop, industrial, new beat, and italo for an eclectic dance floor experience.
In addition to his work with Pixel Grip and Duke Davenport, Drippy released his ambient-techno debut EP ‘Made of Silk’ in December 2020.

RND 079 - Club Drippy

Club Drippy's Discotheque- a party held at The Whistler, Chicago from 2022 - 2023. Discotheque celebrated queer DJs coming together for a share love of the 80's aesthetic. This mix originally aired on Beloved Radio in September 2023. Featured residents were Lee Vaughns on projections, and Raudy on co-DJ duties. Towards the end of the party, I hosted newcomer guest DJs as a low-stakes way to get a foot in the door.

Club Drippy's Discotheque!

Another installment of back to back bangers from our mix series. This one goes so hard, my words wouldn't do it justice, so I'm going to let Club Drippy say it for himself below. He's headlining our next event at Pod, don't fuck up, this is just a taste.

My all-vinyl guest mix for 33 Giri feels like I’m giving some of my most-played records a home. I love to dance to eclectic 80’s mixes, and this was really a joy to make. It’s very Drippy to have moments of frivolous gay energy, countered by angry industrial shouting, and back to everything in between- somber disco, crunchy drum machines, silly songs about boys. The mix intro is an advertisement for an Italian Dance Party cassette (or 8 track!), sold in the Chicago region in the 80’s- captured straight to VHS and planted for eternity on the internet.
