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.
