This DJ and aspiring producer from the small rural town of Shippensburg, Pennsylvania has been mixing for 3 years. He actually has a somewhat sad story as to why he started learning how to mix so prepare yourself for this. Back in 2022 his grandfather unfortunately passed away from heart failure. He described this as a time of his life where he felt lost and broken because he meant the world to him. A few days after this happened he decided to start DJing as a way to distract himself from these difficult times. Fortunately, it worked! He said this was one of the most difficult times of his life where he felt like his back was against the wall and DJing was a huge help during the grieving process. Now he uses DJing as a way to show love to other people and to also have fun and be who they are during his sets. Seeing people headbang and going ballistic is something he looks forward to and says is one of the coolest parts of DJing. 

Since starting out in VR he's played at Lyoko After Dark, Phanosity, Sanctum Chapel, Contain, Reflect, and many other venues and events. His favorite genres to play out are Dubstep, Riddim, and Drum and Bass, but he also sometimes plays house and techno. 

Today's set is inspired by artists like Subtronics and Crankdat, and also his friend Xio who he said deserves a shoutout and the world. One of his favorite songs on today's set is Power Alliance by Barely Alive and Kompany.

Outside of DJing he enjoys seeing his girlfriend, hanging out with family and friends, paintballing, long walks and drives, and hanging out with his cat Snoopy. He's also a certified forklift driver and his favorite non-edm song is No Names by NF. 

Finally, he has biggie cheese things coming with Stevie Boi Wonderfiz so be on the lookout for that in the future.

This DJ and producer based in Virginia has been mixing for 2 years. They credited VR Music festivals like Slyfest as big inspirations behind starting their DJ journey. Since starting out they've played at venues like Tube, Just Party, Subsystem, and Rift, and they told me that their favorite part of it all is being able to take pre-existing tracks and make something new, even if it just sounds like a playlist sometimes. Their favorite genres to play out are Complextro, Jersey Club, and Color Bass  

The vibe for today's mix is going to be something along the lines of Getting Trapped in video game mixes with a little bit of early 2010's edm sprinkled in. One of the songs being played today is Rose Glass by Sub001 and Ginko which this DJ told me showcases all the parts of complextro and electro house that they love about the genres. 

Outside of the electronic music world, their favorite song is Heck by Underscores which they told me is still somewhat electronic because of all the influences on the artist but its okay we'll forgive them today.

This DJ and producer from Atlanta Georgia has been mixing for 10 years. Initially starting out as a guitar/bass/piano player when he was 12, the electronic music scene grabbed his attention around 2012 where he found interest mostly in the Drum n Bass and Dubstep scene. He then decided to give Production and DJing a go and the rest is history. Since starting in VR he's played at most of the venues and events you may have heard of but he still hopes to play at Concrete and/or Shelter one day. When attending one of his sets you'll most likely hear him play Drum and Bass and many of its sub genres. As for today's set he'll be taking us through a journey of Jungle and Neurofunk. He told me that while he loves almost all the songs in this set, the way he introduces the John B Remix of Witchcraft by Pendulum feels magical to him everytime. 

Outside of DJing he loves gaming and dabbles into competitive PVP from time to time. Also his favorite non-edm song is Butterflies and Hurricanes by Muse. 

You can find him on Twitter, Bluesky, Instagram, Twitch, and Soundcloud, and finally, this year he will be releasing a lot of his own drum and bass productions and remixes to the masses for free, so keep an eye on his soundcloud to grab those in the future!

This DJ from a city near Ulm, Germany, has been mixing for 3.5 years. His story is actually pretty funny, he started getting into DJing because his Index broke and he needed something to do in desktop mode so he chose DJing as said thing. He said there's three things specifically that he loves about Djing: Being in the zone during a set, actually pulling off the set like u imagined it, and people coming up after to tell you they loved your set. 
Since then though, he's played at loads of venues and events, but he said his most notable ones were Shelter, Sanctum, Nurtured 3, Slyfest, and the VRChat New Year's Event events for 22 and 23. He wanted to give a special shoutout to Just Party where he started so shoutout them. 
When he's playing a set you should be expecting to hear genres like Neuro funk, House, Club / Bass music, and Deep dubstep. 
For today's set he decided to do a deep dive for some new genres and accidentally clicked buy on 130 tracks. One of those tracks is The Lawrence Guy Remix of VIEWS by Mild Minds which he said is his favorite track on today's set. 
Outside of DJing he likes Hiking, Movies, and DnD. A cool little fact about him is that when his Index broke, he got frustrated and started doodling on it. He drew a smiley face on it and used it as his profile picture on discord. An artist friend of his saw this and created a logo for him using that as inspiration behind it.

You can find him on Twitter, Bluesky, and Hearthis (I REALIZE NOW I SAID IT WRONG IN THE SHOW I'M SORRY) for his sets and finally while this is mostly for his EU friends but he'll be playing at the Just Party IRL event in Rotterdam on March 28th and 29th. If you're in the area you should def check it out.

This DJ and Producer from St Petersburg Florida has been mixing for roughly 2 1/2 years.

He originally got into DJing  after a VRChat DJ known as JNZI some of y'all may have heard of them, found one of his tracks on SoundCloud. This led him down a rabbit hole of buying a VR Headset and experiencing his first event. He thinks it was a DJ Kuroneko set at Loner but he's not sure. After this though, he was hooked. He had actually never been to a real club at this point of his life, let alone a place where people shared his taste in music. At that point he figured it was time to get a DJ controller, and he feels lucky to have met some people like the queen of Techno Cyntheszr and her friend nninety who liked a mix he made and put him on at at time when he really had no clue what he was doing. And the rest is history.

Since then he's played at Venues and Events like LC41, BORT, Klub Kebab, Mutable, Shelter, Loner, Concrete, Zu, Club Dali, and many more. When catching one of his sets you'll most likely be hearing a mix of UK Bass, Techno, Breaks, 2-step Garage, and Grime. For today's set though, he wanted to play a mix inspired by his music taste from 2016 and 2017.

This DJ and producer from the state of Colorado has been mixing for about a year now. She told me she started getting into DJing after her friend Rando started throwing random Youtube DJ pop ups in Club Orion. This inspired her to start making more music and eventually led her to having a big enough library to start playing sets. She said she really just enjoys the time spent with friends and the vibes that playing sets creates. Since starting out in VR she's played at venues and events like The Compound, Rizumu, Symbiotic, Snowgrid, Homie Hangout, CTRLR, Kaliedosky, Raft, a Disability Pride Month event, and RAMEN CVLT COLLECTIVE which I believe she is the co-owner of. 

When catching one of her sets you are probably going to hear some Hard Techno, Industrial Hard Techno, Bass House, Midtempo, and maybe some 140. 

For today's set she put together mainly just similar sounds and vibes from a Modular Techno Artist that she found last year named Krista Bourgeois. She said that some of Krista's songs are phenomenal like Devastator which she told me is her favorite song on today's set. Recently, she's been basing some sets around some of her music as well as going down the SoundCloud rabbit hole to see what she can find. She's also thrown in some remixes of songs that she often listens to outside of Techno.

Outside of DJing she enjoys making music and spending time with friends. It doesn't matter if its in a VR event, IRL event, or even just a game night. She also used to be in a band! It didnt' last very long but she did a couple of weekend tours and said it was a lot of fun. When I asked her what her favorite non-EDM song was, she told me that it was tough to answer because she truly likes metal more than electronic music, but she ended up picking Celestial Floods by Invent Animate. It was a huge inspiration for her when she was writing music and playing guitar.

Finally, she wants y'all to check out anything and everything of the Ramen Cvlt Collective. You can follow them on their bluesky to find out more information about their events and such.

This DJ from Spain has been mixing for three years! He told me that he credits the VRChat community for getting him into DJing. Before all this he was never really a fan of electronic music, but spending time in clubs gave him a newfound appreciation for it. So much so that he bought a mixer, has created two fairly well known clubs, and has spend thousands of hours discovering, collecting, interacting, and listening to electronic music. 

Since starting in VR He's played at venues like Midnight Luv, Symbiotic, Redacted, Safehouse 9, and his own clubs Club Dali and Black Market. 

Most of his mixes are comprised of a bunch of different genres, but they're primarily focused on bass music. For today's mix he wanted to create something fun and unpredictable, with lots of ups and down to nod your head to, with some experimental touches and fast transitions.

This DJ and producer from Salt Lake City Utah has been mixing for about 11 years now. Him and his friends originally bonded over EDM in High School and went as far as to make an after school club known as "Electronic Music Club" where they taught themselves how to producer music and DJ. He told me that he used to go around the school selling Donuts to teachers and students in order to get enough money to buy FL Studio. Since then he's continued to keep up with it! His favorite part is being able to support his friends who DJ and see them grow. He said the support they have for one another as well as the hype they bring for each other is an endlessly fulfilling experience. Since starting in VR he's played at venues and events like PSHQ, ZU, Shelter, Redline, Sushi House, Techno Abyss, Boat, and Refuge.

If you've ever catch one of his sets you'll likely hear genres like 140 Dub, Hardwave, and Techno.

He's been so in love with Hardwave for a while now, and he doesn't hear it played very often at clubs whether its in VR or IRL. Emerging from the wave and phonk scenes and pioneered by an artist named Skeler, he feels that its such an emotional and raw sounding genres that really gets him hype and he's excited to share that will y'all today. One of the songs you'll be hearing on today's set is Feel It All by Bafu. It has an incredible melody that gets stuck in this DJ's head often, and he said the vocal sample is hauntingly beautiful and the build up is pure ecstasy. 

Outside of DJing he enjoys watching films and going to raves! He's also a skilled DDR player and his favorite non-EDM song is Breathe by Michelle Branch.

Finally, he will be filming and hosting a VR rendition of the hit reality TV show SURVIVOR this summer and needs contestants to play. More information on that will be coming soon. Good luck to everyone who competes on that it sounds like it could be a lot of fun!

This DJ from Andalusia Spain has been mixing for two years. When he was about 15 years old he would spend his time listening to music on YouTube as many of us did and then one day he discovered Virtual DJ. He started experimenting with the software and he said his first mixes were pretty bad so he decided to put that project aside. 

Fast forward to 2023 and he found himself in the VRChat Rave scene where people and friends around him were organizing events and playing shows. He found himself wanting to scratch that itch and picked up controller and taught himself how to DJ. He considers it one of the best decisions of his life. He told me that he loves seeing people flow with the music and genuinely enjoy what you're playing. 

Since starting in VR he's played at places like Hive Mind, Safehouse, The Four Foxes, Seren, Black Market, Refuge, Abiotic, UNTITLED, Simplicity, Intermodal, Shades, Sonar, and an IRL Club named Efecto Club.

If you catch one of his sets you'll most likely hear genres like Hardgroove, Techno, Hynpnotic, Industral, DnB, and UK Garage

For Today's set he wanted to share with us a mix of Hypnotic and Hardgroove. While he couldn't pick a favorite song on his set today, he told me that his favorite song right now is a  Cepilla (by Fulanito), by PETERBLUE.

Outside of DJing he really likes going to events both IRL and URL, especially when its to support a friend. His favorite genres outside of EDM are Metal Core, Spanish Pop, and Ambient Music. And He told me that when he started taking DJing seriously, he started a project named "I WAS HERE" where he started putting his mixes on in order to apply to play here with a bunch of sets. I really do appreciate that effort and I'm sorry it took so long friend. 

Alright with all of that out of the way y sin mas preambulo, Bienvenidos al Latency Mix de esta Semana - K A J Y

This DJ from Los Angeles California has been mixing for about a year and a half now. He started after seeing an amazing hip hop DJ, garage30 alum, and one of my first VR friends Ayabunny play a set and just wanted to start spinning hip hop in the space. He loves the feeling of making other people dance and have fun during sets. 

Since starting out he's played at venues and events like SnowGRID, Techno Abyss, Offline, House, and Shelter. He mostly enjoys playing hip hop but when he gets booked he likes to give himself a challenge by asking the booker what they would like him to play. Whatever genre they tell him he gives his own spin on it. 

For today's set I didn't give him a specific genre to play out so we'll be hearing a set not determined by any outside influence so I'm super excited for that. One of the songs you'll be hearing is the Nelson X, Urban O, and Smochi edit of 212 by Azalea Banks which is already a banger as is so the edits gonna be fire. 

Outside of DJing he loves playing video games of all kinds, his favorite non edm song is Chosen by Blxst, Tyga, and Ty Dolla $ign and he said that even tho he feels that some people think he's not a very talkative or open person he actually really is so don't be afraid to strike up a convo with him if you see him in the wild!

You can find him on bluesky and he will be playing a set at Star Party on April 24th! If you've never been to a star party I highly recommend it its a fun event to attend. 

Alright for the last time of season 3 - please welcome to this week's latency mix - Dubsu.
