House Music from 5 Magazine
DJ WATCH

Michael Angelo Christopher
February 2007

INFLUENCES: Wow, where to begin? Lets start with DJs: Gene Farris on top somewhere, as a producer and DJ. I was always been partial to Julian J Perez's mixes when I was younger. Digable Planets and Cassius really inspires me on the House tip. About every DJ in Chicago working out at a club has been some influence on me.

MUSICAL STYLE: My style is all over the place. I love deep records, I really enjoy jazz, the horns get me so so excited. I love all of them.

WHERE HAVE YOU SPUN AT? Blond, Minx, Ice Bar, Mystique, Narcisse, Chromium, Transit, Battlefield 8 , Cherry Red, Swank, Parkway, Back Booth (Orlando, FL), Basement Bar (FL)

CURRENT RESIDENCIES/GIGS: An international house music website ChicagoHouseDJ.com.

TOP 5 SONGS: I love everything on the PRYDA label; "Walk a mile in my Shoes" (ColdCut feat. Robert Owens); "Dutty Funk (We Can Do)" (Timmy Vegas feat. Barbara Tucker); "Move My Body" (Tiga)

DREAM JOB: I would have to say what I am doing, I really enjoy my work.

QUOTE: "Keep working and moving forward."
