In this Poducer: Chicago Series episode, we sit down with John Rynecki, a DJ, producer, event promoter, and educator whose mission is simple: bring abundance to the dance floor. From growing up across Panama, Puerto Rico, and Germany to finding his creative home in Chicago, John shares how his multicultural upbringing shaped his sound and his vision for a more collaborative, community-driven nightlife.

He talks about his early influences from salsa and Everything But the Girl to Craig David and Rusko at Congress Theater, and how those experiences evolved into his approach to DJing: sets that breathe, connect, and tell stories rather than chase drops. We explore how growing up abroad helped him view music as a universal language, and why he believes Chicago’s scene can thrive through openness and shared purpose rather than competition.

John also shares the story behind co-founding the Chicago Electronic Music Conference (CEMC), an event built to educate, connect, and inspire, and how it aims to elevate dance music to the same cultural status as jazz and blues. He reflects on the realities of leaving a stable tech career to pursue music full-time, the challenges of sustaining creativity in today’s economy, and what “success” really means as a modern artist.

From imagining a city-backed Chicago Electronic Music Week to breaking down how to market independent releases and use data-driven ads effectively, John offers grounded, actionable insights for artists carving their path.

10.29.25

Raw and relentless Chicago-style hard house.

Heavy kicks. Screaming 303s. Chopped vocal drops.

This is a modern take on the Underground Construction vibe — think Angel Alanis, DJ Irene, peak-hour warehouse chaos.

I started writing this when I first got back into production. It sat for a while until I was confident enough to finish it properly. A throwback in spirit — but made to hit hard today.

This is a slightly shorter version of the song. It's tight and punchy for peak-hour sets — this version hits fast and doesn’t let go. Made for the mix.

🎬 Music video (Visualizer) coming soon.

Kay Barton, originally from northern Germany, developed a passion for electronic music at a young age and taught himself the basics using simple DOS software. 

After relocating to the Heidelberg area in 1997, Kay delved into the world of DJing. Throughout the years, he has performed at renowned clubs and festivals both nationally and internationally. Additionally, he has played for various German and Austrian radio stations. Setting himself apart as not just a DJ but also an event organiser, Kay has curated electronic music events in the Rhine-Main area, with the popular 'The Place To Be' series being a notable example.

He initially experimented with different artist names and musical styles. However, in 2016, he made a deliberate shift towards pure techno music while using his real name. That same year, he made his debut with the release of his single 'Return 01' on the Belgian record label Bonzai, followed by remixes on Emerald & Doreen Records. Notably, his EP 'MacroGod' was released in 2019, featuring remixes by Dr Motte and Mijk van Dijk. Kay released music on various record labels, including Neuhain and Ballroom in Berlin, before finally signing with Trapez Records (Traum Schallplatten) in Cologne in 2020. In 2021, he moved to Vienna, Austria and continued to make a name for himself, releasing his first EP on IAMT, Spain in 2022, and collaborating with renowned artists like Tom Wax, Ross Harper, Mijk van Dijk and Tomorrowland artist YULI ANA.

In addition to his DJ and producing work, Kay also ventured into radio hosting. From 2020 to 2024, he has been hosting two monthly house and techno mix shows called 'Wiener Wohnzimmer' (formerly known as
'Heidelberger Wohnzimmer') and 'Sophisticated Rhythms' on Evosonic Radio, Germany's first station dedicated solely to electronic music. 

In 2023 along with his wife Evi he established the event platform 'TRENDWÆNDE'. They organised the “Save The Planet” float at the Rave The Planet Parade in Berlin, collaborating with three promoters and label operators.
The following year, TRENDWÆNDE organised several techno events in Vienna and Berlin, including a collaboration with Ukraine's largest rave series, Laboratorium, for the “Play Techno - Stop Wars” float at the Rave The Planet Parade. Shortly afterwards, ‘CONNÆKT.’ was launched, a new, regular event series organised by TRENDWÆNDE, in which they bring together local and international representatives of sophisticated techno, such as the internationally renowned techno artists Alan Oldham (DJ T-1000, BPitch/Tresor), BB Deng (Ego Riot Rec.) or SAYTEK LIVE (Awesome Soundwave, Cod3 QR, Raw Industries Berlin).

Born in Manhattan, Raised in the Bronx, New York City with Strong Puerto Rican Roots, and growing up with a diverse racial circle of friends, DJ MARKO POLO has been continuously pushing the envelope with his unique musical styling that is both compelling and heart-pounding. As a child in the 70's Marko would wake up to the vibrant Latin sounds of Puente, Pacheco, Palmieri, Celia and the Fania Allstars and the soul of Motown and Doo Wops. Growing up in the early 80's he witnessed first hand the birth and rise of a new Culture that involved DJ's Scratching, Brothers Emm-Ceeing, B-Boys Breaking and Graffiti Artist bombing the system with their Burners. That Culture was called Hip Hop and it would carve a foundation in Markos heart for music. As a teenager saw the emergence of Freestyle at the Devils Nest, and in the late 80's embraced a new type of sound called House Music that would speak volumes world wide. 

His diverse background in music and over 20 years in the game as a DJ has given Marko Polo a wide range of influences to incorporate into his mixes and productions, giving him a sound that is truly his own. Marko's passion for music has allowed him to gain friends and fans throughout the USA, Puerto Rico, Spain, Italy, England and Japan. He successfully headlined many of NYC's Hottest Night Clubs including, Les Poulets, The Supper Club NY, The Copacabana, Latin Quarters, The Limelight, The China Club, The Tunnel, Club America, Cafe Remy, Sequoia, Nells, Side Street, Jimmy's Bronx Cafe and many many more. His knowledge and skill of mixing all styles from all genre's of music is rare. Where most DJ's today specialize in one style of music or another, DJ MARKO POLO has truly mastered them all. From being one of the original true mix DJ's in Salsa to a scratch artist in Hip Hop and to keeping smooth tight blends and mixes in R&B, House and Reggae Marko's skill is uncanny. His achievements have earned him praise and notoriety throughout the Business and Entertainment community building solid relationships with many Sports figures, Artist, Musicians and Corporate clients. DJ Marko Polo continues to host and headline events packing the dance floors and keeping the crowd moving and today he still remains an undeniable force on the music scene.

I'm a producer from Houston, TX, I spent a few years in Cyprus, and now I'm back stateside. I've been a DJ since 98', and a producer since about 08'.

Basically, if you like a song, share it, like it, comment on it, etc.  Let me know you want that track fully finished.

Мне нравится звук 90-х. Я его создаю, добавляя современное звучание и своё видение.

I love 90's sound, and I recreate it in different shapes.

IPX is a Chicago-born House music producer and DJ. Inspired by WBMX and B96 at a young age, his passion for House has driven his involvement in the Midwest scene for decades.

BIO:

Making her debut in 1999, DJ Emily began her journey as a House DJ in the underground Chicago scene. Prior to DJing, Emily was brought up in a very musically influenced home and took up many musical instruments over the course of her youth- including piano, clarinet and guitar for some time. When she discovered her purpose as a DJ, it all came together. Emily started on a pair of belt driven turntables and a basic two-channel mixer. Over the decades as technology advanced, she progressed to Technics 1200s, then eventually to Time-Code Vinyl, CDJs, XDJs, and everything in between. Being a versatile DJ that can play on anything definitely sets her aside in the industry.

Emily got into the scene in the mid-90’s and immediately fell in love with the vibe and the music. She joined forces with the 219 Collective based out of Northwest Indiana in 2000 as a DJ. The 219 crew had a good run, throwing many underground parties and events all over the Northwest Indiana and Chicagoland area for many years. Going solo for a while, she spent a lot of time in the studio practicing, recording mixes, and getting exposure playing various events. In 2017, DJ Emily’s persistence paid off, landing her a long-standing residency for the 24/7 internet radio station- Dance Club Music Radio Live, or www.dcmrlive.com. Her current residency at the station airs in over 52 countries worldwide and typically exceeds 95-100,000 listeners regularly per show! Then, in 2018, two paths crossed. DJ Emily and Douglas Johnson, AKA DJ Anotomus, became partners, throwing events and DJing together for several years under the company- DJanotomus.COM. Currently, Emily is a Resident DJ at the Waterford Inn in LaPorte, IN for a weekly event held on Saturdays. She has one other additional affiliation with a close-knit crew of House DJs called "The House Music Hammer of the Gods," in which she plays events around the Chicago area and suburbs. 

There's only one other thing this girl loves more than dropping those bangin’ tracks- it’s to get everyone in the audience moving and grooving to her high-energy vibe. Inspired mainly by tech-house with thick mids and heavy bass, she has a very particular collection, and a fine-tuned ear for the cuts. With over two decades of experience, DJ Emily is consistently on point with her technical skills, with a natural and musical ear for the flow of the mix. Her performances are going stronger than ever before, curating and delivering the finest selection of beats and bass to the dance floor. DJ Emily’s smooth blending technique and dynamic flow of energy is sure to get you up and on your feet at the drop of the bass.
