Whether holding court at one of his destination Seattle residencies, sharing the bill with premier national and international artists, releasing critically acclaimed mixtapes or touring with his distinctive selection of funk, hip-hop, boogie and R&B, dj100proof is distinguished within the Pacific Northwest and increasingly across the country as “in the pocket”: consistent, excellent, and live.
He is particularly renowned for his Backyard BBQ mixtape series, which features a seamless blend of soul, electronic and hip-hop from the classics to the contemporary perfect for the sophisticate’s summertime soiree. The latest, Volume 7, was released in partnership with Stussy Seattle and was a “Pick of the Week” on Mixcrate.com.
dj100proof has shared the stage and tables with a number of the best contemporary touring artists over the past several years, including DJ Shadow, DJ Quik, 2 Chainz, Passion Pit, Charles Bradley, Little Dragon, Dam-Funk, Mick Boogie, Mayer Hawthorne, Aloe Blacc, DJ Maceo of De La Soul, Spinderella, Onra, Digable Planets, RZA, and J*DaVeY.
A consummate artist in photography, graphic design, and music production, he is also co-owner of Members Only, a hip-hop record label that also produces some of Seattle’s most innovative and memorably raucous parties.
