a.k.a. and better known as is from the west side of Chicago and one of the longest serving producers working in house and footwork with releases stretching back to the glory days of ghetto house on in the nineties.
Hes also one of the co-founders of Chicago's two-decades clique, member of & 's crew, founder of crew, has recorded with power house labels like , , , , , , , and also was one of the creators of the legendary mixtapes on coloured cassettes which were the prototype for juke and footwork's evolution.
His unique brand of footwork is very strongly rooted in Chicago's history of soul, funk, house and ghetto trax. Hes a veteran and renowned crate-digger who has provided the sample sources for many of house, juke and footwork's classic tracks over the years. His deep knowledge of music makes him one of the citys most versatile and skilled DJs and producers.
Traxman's own productions are an incredibly well-rounded suture between hip-hops natural funk and resourceful sample flipping, the hyper-kinetic innovation of footworks stop-start, half-time to double-speed drum programming and a deep respect and understanding of Chicagos house past, that few producers can match. His mixes are a testament to this man's skills.
