About

Ken started his interest in dance music in late 2010 while working on a documentary about the Chicago nightlife scene. Diving deeper he discovered and enjoyed all the diverse genres and styles dance music has to offer. Early influences such as Deadmau5 and Funkagenda persuaded him to check out different artists. Many of Chicago's local DJ's had an impact on him, including Jai Sephora, Mike Hughez, Tommy O'Mozart, and Hard Mike. Inspired he took his dream to the next level. Through perseverance and practice Kennymester has been booked to play Vison Nightclub, V-Live, and NV Penthouse. Ken developed a style with strong roots in Tech House, Progressive, and Techno although his versatility allows him to play to all types of crowds. Determined to make his music heard, Ken is actively beginning to produce his own music and throwing his own events. One thing Ken will never give up is his originality, he strives to play a diverse and unique set every time he plays.

    @tigerfleet: Thanks for the compliment. I usually only produce house tracks so this is written in 2/4 time I think it fits the track well.

    Not to want to ruin the drum and bass feel, but I think this track would benefit from being slowed down a bit. It seems like you miss some of the sounds from being too fast.
