🔥 Afro Remix of "At Night" – Shakedown 🔥
A deep and hypnotic rework of the iconic house classic. This Afro-infused remix blends tribal percussion, lush atmospheric textures, and rolling basslines, bringing a fresh energy to a timeless groove. Designed for late-night sets and sunrise moments — this version keeps the soul of the original alive while taking it on a rhythmic journey through Afro House vibes.

Gabriel Slick - Whispers In The Night (Extended Mix)

John Digweed Transitions live mix from Sunset Cruise Miami 2016

Yotto @ Rapture Electronic Music Festival 2018

This is my supporting set for Joris Voorn on his Spectrum North American tour -- I had the honor and pleasure to kickoff the musical offerings on the very first event of the tour in Chicago.  

Despite an injury, feeling pretty off-center, and no opportunity to musically prepare for this set, I showed up and just did the best I could.  And you know what?  It was totally worth it.  It felt great -- not perfect by any means, but felt great nonetheless.  What I played was well-received by those in attendance, and most importantly by Joris, who had a nice thing or two to say about things when I was done.  This set will always stand out in my memory for many reasons, and I couldn't be happier to share this set with you all.  

As always, if you're feeling this, please hit me with a like / favorite / repost / share / comment / retweet / or all of the above. The support from all of you is what keeps me moving forward. Thank you!

Technism Mix Series #93 [ RJ Pickens guest mix ]

Ah, Miami...  Hello again, old friend.  We've got some real history together over all these years, don't we?  It's time to head down to warmer climates for a few days of music, and in keeping with tradition, I'm putting up my annual Miami Music Week showcase mix.  I love making this mix, because it's a great time of year to check-in with what music is really moving me presently, what music has become a favorite of mine over the last 6-8 months, what selections of my own work and my label's work I want to showcase, and what new and exciting tunes I want to share with the world.  It's a beautiful exercise in curation and putting together a complex puzzle with seemingly-infinite outcomes.

I'll let the music and tracklist (below) speak for itself, but I'm pretty happy and proud to share this annual project with you all.  And also keeping with tradition, I've stayed up super late the night before heading to Miami and arriving with a bit of an unrested handicap, but it's never stopped me before, and I don't see that hindering me this year either.  Anyway, press play and turn this up loud if you're able, because this mix begs to be played over a system with a fat low end.  :)

As always, if you're feeling this, please hit me with a Like / Favorite / Repost / Share / Comment, or all of the above!  Thanks, everybody.  Much love!
RJ

There's some DJ sets that feel like you step right into the zone from the moment you mix in your first track, and those sets feel damn good.  This was one of those.  Big thank you's to everyone who was there for this stellar night of music, which started with my Chicago brother-in-arms, Duke Shin, continued with me, and culminated with a true masterclass treat of a set from the one and only H.O.S.H.!  Nights like this one make me proud to do what I do.  If you were there, press play to relive this part of the night...  and if you weren't, jump in and enjoy a taste of what a lovely evening it was.

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 Spybar CHI - 09Aug2019 [supporting Set For HOSH]

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.
