Dj Chonz :: Westword practice set 2010
It’s not very often that a dj performance leaves me completely speechless other than the sound of happy squeals and shouts. I’ve been blessed to see most of the greats and a bunch of the not-so-greats (I remember hearing an unnamed headliner dj trainwreck 17 times in an hour. Truthfully, it turned into a hell of a drinking game that I’d much rather forget).
Enter my dear friend, Dj Chonz (Radio Bums). I had the privilege of checking out this set live over the weekend during the Westword Music Festival, which spotlights local musicians and djs (our local Village Voice publication) and the first thing on my Monday morning to-do list was to throw this set out to you. There’s truly something for everyone and a little bit of everything, but the way that Chonz conveys such a drastic variety of genres is accomplished in the most suave way possible. At the end of his live set over the weekend, he managed to play my #1 absolute favorite song followed by my absolute favorite artist as part of a mandatory encore that was requested by the crowd.
