about
JUSTIN AULIS LONG
Chicago native Justin Aulis Long discovered his fascination for uncanny music at an early age when his mother entrusted him with her record collection that spanned from punk rock to American dance. This right of musical passage served as a gateway, stimulating his journey into an uncanny sonic vortex. At the age of 14 Aulis found himself at the threshold of Medusas, a ritualistic space that held service weekly for all the mutant kids that traveled outside of the status quo. Shortly after, Long purchased a set of belt drive turntables, and a crate of acid house records from a classmate. This was the beginning of a long lasting experiment with the language of sound.
TYREL WILLIAMS
Tyrel has been a mainstay of Chicago’s underground House scene for years. He began mixing records in 1999. Soon later he landed a job at Gramaphone Records where he spent many years building his collection of dance records. He spent 2008-2011 building his Acid Test residency at Smart Bar, which is an all vinyl House / Techno party. Guests have included Derrick Carter, Traxx, Justin Long, Convextion, Dave Aju, and Tevo Howard. Tyrel has recently moved to San Francisco where he is a resident DJ for Housepitality.
