Music runs deep with Chicago native Misteries. His father a local musician, he found himself drawn to music at a young age, with a particular affinity for soul music. As a teen, he became heavily influenced by the Chicago rave scene of the 90s, particularly the first time he saw influential DJ and producer, Paul Johnson perform. By the end of the 90s, Misteries had purchased his first set of Technics, and a slew of soulful vocal house records.
In the early 2000s, Misteries perfected his craft and his reputation, playing at successful house nights at clubs like Zentra, Vision, and Funky Buddha Lounge, as well as underground events by collectives such as True Family Unit, Intergruv, House Arrest, Dust Tracks Ecclectric Grooves, to name a few. In the Summer of 2006, he was involved in a near fatal car crash, which left him in a coma and paralyzed his right arm. By that time the following year, he had learned to spin records with one functional arm, and started experimenting with Electro & Fidget house.
Since then, Misteries has launched a clothing line, Gunplay, and has started collaborating with Electro DJ & producer Eric Starkill with their project “Audio Assassins.” You can catch them performing around the Chicagoland area at a club or underground near you.
Now returning from his 9 month break from Chicago, Misteries is back, in a major way. Dropping everything from soulful & disco house, big room bangers, in your face electro, hea and even a little moombahton. Don't expect to be seated during Misteries sets because the passion and fire he puts into playing is clearly shared with all those on the dance floor.
