I've had the pleasure of playing with Jody in CHI quite a bit over the years, but I don't think I've ever seen him play a set quite like this one.  He came to play, and frankly, so did I.  Warming up the main room for Jody's 3 Hour journey in Dolby Atmos was a privilege, and the night was pretty stellar from start to finish.  Dive in and see what you missed, or replay this portion of it to enjoy again.  I even got a "That was lovely, mate" comment from Jody on this set, so it was nice to know he was feeling it too.  :)

As always, if you're feeling this, please hit me with a Like / Favorite / Repost / Share / Comment, or all of the above!
Cheers, and thank you all for dancing with me.

RJ Pickens - Live At Sound - Bar CHI - 15Jun2019 [supporting set For Jody Wisternoff]

A place to share the deep, tech, prog, electro and other sub-genre gems that get us through the week! 

For the past 2 decades, RJ Pickens has been a leader in building and growing Chicago’s melodic-driven electronic music scene. With nearly 25 years of DJ experience and tirelessly pursuing the perfect mix of deep, progressive, techno, and house sounds.  He rocks venues ranging from intimate to huge, and can go from being the headliner himself to being the supporting act of choice for countless global headliners on the best club and festival events the Windy City has to offer.  RJ is also a principal collaborator in a recently-launched and acclaimed music act called Portals & Parachutes, taking first flight in post-pandemic 2021.  RJ’s record label and music event banner — VESTED — has become synonymous with top-tier progressive electronic sounds.  Vested Recordings, while a relatively young label still, has seen remarkable support from some of the very best artists in the industry.  The event showcases produced under the Vested brand have been consistently showcasing the finest quality in its music bookings for the last 10 years. 

VESTED:  an adjective that means “to hold something completely, permanently, and inalienably — an unwavering commitment.”  In an electronic music sense, it simply means RJ is really serious about our party music, and his work on all fronts speaks for itself.

If you haven’t yet, tune in and turn it all the way up.
