He started his young DJing career at the age of 15 and in the past 13 years Justin has accomplished more than most could even imagine in the house music industry. As a DJ his sets are electric ranging from thick tech-house to a deeper soulful sound; all performed with an energy behind the turntables that in itself is Justin Long.As one of the founding residents on q101 Sonic Boom fm with his thumping Saturday night radio show with 71,000 listeners. As a producer he has recorded for and with many of the top labels and producers. Labels such as G Swing, Greens Keepers, Igloo, Peaches and Music For Freaks have sought his music. Some of his most prolific productions have come form his collaborations with Dan X under the moniker of No Assembly Required. This powerful duo has turned heads as far away as Asia and Europe. LegoInspired by his family and the surroundings of Chicago's Latino community of Logan Square, Rafael Rodriguez, Lego, committed himself to music at an early age. His career began when he was 19 years old with his first club residency at Kaboom. Kaboom led to his 9-year (and still going strong) residency at Red Dog's "Boom Boom Room", one of the longest running nights in Chicago club history. Red Dog gave Lego the musical freedom that he needed to gain respect from his peers and fans alike. Being part of a night that has received worldwide attention opened the doors to production. Drawing from a wide spectrum of musical tastes (Latin Jazz, Jazz, Hip Hop, R & B, Salsa, Meringue, House, Disco and Funk) and influenced by Chicago's DJ legends (Frankie Knuckles, Ralphi Rosario, Farley "Jackmaster" Funk, and Edward "Get Down" Crosby), Lego pursued his musical passion. In 1997, Andy Adams of UC Music approached Lego to complete a remix for a Ralphi Rosario/Donna Blakely song entitled "Take Me Up." Lego's remix made it to #4 on the Billboard Dance Chart. Since then he has claimed two more Billboard hits remixing another Ralphi Rosario/Donna Blakely collaboration "Do You Like The Way That It Feels"and Rosario's 1998 romp, "Wanna Give ItUp"featuring Disco Diva legend Linda Clifford. In 1999 he produced the E.P "Flava In Ya Ear Vol. 2" on Afterhours which included international hits "El Ritmo De Verdad" and "When I'm With You." Both tracks quickly became anthems for that year's club season in Ibiza, Spain. The EP hit #1 on the International Dance Music Charts and still remains the best selling release in the label's history. Just recently in New City Chicago Newspaper Lego is listed at #27 in their Music 45 issue. Lego is not leaving the dance music scene anytime soon. When he's not in Paris at his monthly residency "House Sound" at Le Gibus or touring, you can see him live around Chicago area in the hottest clubs this city has to offer.Paul AnthonyOver the years Paul has played for many major event promoters across the nation sharing the main stage with legends such as Bad Boy Bill, Dj Sneak, Derrick Carter, Casjmere, Ritchie Hawtin, Armand Van Helden, Rabbit and the Moon, Gene Farris, Skylab 2000, KRS-1, etc...... Paul looks to the future and his career with a positive approach. New projects include producing tracks on his own record label, Fabric Records and touring the country on the Planet Bass Tour with Nigel Richards, Dj Funk, skylab2000,and Michael Myers. When booking Paul Anthony, expect the very best house music has to offer. One wouldn't call Paul Anthony just a deejay but rather a performer because when Paul comes to the decks, the first beat drops, the vicious scratch beginIn the Chance VIP Room:Blue J DNSRick RockTrilogyOpie Kuttingham--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Residents:Sativa & Jay-funk / hip hop & old schools&ld resident dj Jon Huang / housex’ess resident djX'ESS Hosted VIP Cocktail Reception from 9 - 10pm!Drink Specials:$4 Shots-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Guest list rules:Free before 10$5 10 -11$10 11 - midnight$15 afterwardsGuestList Available at:www.xessentertainment.comZentra Nightclub923 Weed St.Chicago, IL 21+ ID Required Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
