From Chicago's NW Side, RRKS was raised on old school Chicago house music.
It was the classic mix shows on WBMX & WGCI that made electronic
music a permanent fixture in his life. He started mixing and
making tracks in the late 1980's with some of his father's old gear
that was lying around in the basement. What was originally a
hobby quickly became on obsession and in 1992 he was able to scrape up
enough money to buy his first drum machine - the rest is history.For
many years Chicago's infamous Gramaphone records was his second home
and allowed him to build friendships with some of the world's best DJ's
& Producers.
Finally, after more than a decade of basement tracks & mixtapes,
the Internet has made it possible to share his musical vision with the
world.
