Kiss Presents DJ Sneak in the mix!
Kiss Presents one of the ultimate U.S. house DJ’s and producers, DJ Sneak!
In 1983, Sneak moved to the city of Chicago from Puerto Rico, where his early musical experiences and influences were rooted in salsa, meringue and Latin orchestras. In Chicago, Sneak found inspiration in underground house music, warehouse parties and “old school” mix tapes from the early pioneers, Farley Jackmaster Funk, Ralphi Rosario, Steve Hurley and local radio station shows played on WBMX.
Sneak earned his nickname rocking graffiti-tags and began working at retail stores as an airbrush artist, which kept him out of trouble and allowed him to make important local industry contacts. Sneak focused on his music production and started his independent label – Defiant Records.
In 1992, using the fundamental studio pieces, Sneak began recording tracks with a new style. In 1994, while still working at local store Gramophone Records, Sneak met Cajmere (Green Velvet) owner of Cajual and Relief Records. Cajmere released three of Sneak’s catalyst tracks, which helped to bring Sneak international recognition. Lyrics by DJ Sneak are featured in the Daft Punk song, “Digital Love”, from their 2001 album, Discovery.[1] In 2001, Sneak launched a new record label Magnetic Recordings, where he has been releasing new music, with compilations to come, along with the introduction of new musical talent.
Today, DJ Sneak is a familiar name across the world’s club circuit. A regular player at Fabric in London, he’s just remixed their latest mix cd, ‘Fabric 62.’ It’s your chance to hear this legendary house DJ in action, on Kiss!
