Electro, Bass and Ghetto. The perfect trifecta.

ALIENS GOT THAT FUNK

Vic Johnson, better known as VicOne is a Footwork DJ and producer from Chicago currently based out of Michigan.

After discovering Ghettohouse and listening to Wax Master Maurice he decided to become a DJ in 1995 but would only start producing more than 20 years later in 2019 after coming across a recording of DJ Rashad and DJ Spinn performing in Madrid. Like many Footwork producers he uses an MPC, the perfect tool for his sound.

Since he started producing his music has been released on various outlets and compilations, including Trashed Panda Music and Juke Bounce Werk's highly acclaimed "JBDUBZ" compilation series.

VicOne is closely associated with the Neon Street Music collective (formerly known as District 160) leading to collaborations with other collective members such as Thrash. He also runs his own label Art House Alumni with the help of Thrash and Cyribro and in 2022 he joined esteemed Footwork producer EQ Why's label Equalized Records.

You Got The Touch

Fruits of Our Labor turns 21 with this mix from Steph Who?, a DJ who is a part of Detroit-based creative collective Bad Listener (@bad_listener.wav). Steph Who? is known for their range and this mix shows it through pure energy and unfiltered speed, with tracks spanning sprint-worthy BPMs through many genres, infused with acid. Lyrics sprinkled throughout the mix are perfect for the party lovers, and that's why we're happy to share this particular mix for the 21st installment of this series.

From the artist:

Name, DJ name and backstory of that name:
My name is Steph and my DJ name is Steph Who?
♡
I chose to go by “Steph Who?” because most of my life people have called me “Stephanie,” but within the past few years I’ve realized that “Steph” feels so much more like ME. Going by a nickname I once hated was an adjustment for a lot of people in my life, kind of more than me coming out as nonbinary lol, hence the “Who?”

Hometown:
Bloomfield Hills, MI

DJ Inspiration:
Aaron Carl, horsegiirL, Sara Landry, Peggy Gou, SOPHIE, as well as my partner Rob (@dj_herboyfriend) and our friend Billy (@billywinters)! I’ve seen/listened to more sets from Rob and Billy than anyone else and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Other interests:
Liberation for ALL ☮️If I’m on my phone it’s because I’m watching my TikTok fyp (the algorithm is perf), looking at memes on IG or reading manga. I am such a big Stardew Valley fan that I have it on every device (laptop, iPad, phone, and Nintendo Switch).

Random Fun Fact:
I own every Sims 4 expansion pack and I have spent over 2000
hours playing it since it was released in 2014 ☮️

Tell us about your mix:
I really wanted to make a mix where you can get sweaty and just go nuts on the dance floor without caring what people think. As someone who struggled with my gender identity for most of my life, I have a hard time turning off the little voice in my head that tells me people won’t take me seriously because I’m not a man or that I shouldn’t be vocal about my gender identity or sexuality because of hatred and bigotry. This mix helps me turn off that little voice and I hope it can do that for others as well!!!! ☮️

Music Hot Take:
I cannot separate the art from the artist nor would I want to!!! I wish this wasn’t a hot take but it seems to be☮️☮️

JOGA BONITO
