I make music with the intention of exploring the infinite acts of creation that connect us all, and to also create new space for spirits of sound to collaborate in what seems to be their desired ways. In this process I mostly see myself as a conduit which ties the strings of sonic-self-expressions of others together, however, these expressions then emerge in new ways that feel so undoubtedly like myself that I must also acknowledge the role that my ego and spirit has in this equation.

Chopping samples is a meditative experience. The process continually contextualizes my understanding of self as one with everything that has ever been and that will be, all existing simultaneously in the eternal now. Producing music provides me with peace along my personal timeline with growth. Through the upmost veneration and collaboration with all that has come before me, "my songs" come together. I hope they provide you with an instance of peace and happiness as they do for me:) All of my cover art is made by me as multimedia collages:)

E-Tik hails from the suburbs of Chicago. Always listening to a wide variety of music, he fell in love with the sounds of the UK bass scene in college, and fell into DJing shortly afterward. E-Tik started playing dubstep and grime but quickly branched out into UK garage, broken techno, and jungle. He got his start going back to back with FoleyDub on Sub.FM, which led to him taking up his own monthly residency on the station beginning in 2020. He has opened for the likes of Mungos HiFi, J:Kenzo, and others, focused on low frequency, meditative sounds across BPM and genre.
