WHA GWAAN! BRAIN DRAIN is coming up fast on Saturday, Sept. 24th with special guest Jillionaire (Mad Decent/ Major Lazer - Trinidad)!
Reppin’ Mad Decent, this DJ/producer has traveled all over playing shows with Major Lazer and killing it with his own events and music. With over fifteen years of experience, the Jillionaire has created a unique sound mashing indie dance and big room house with the Caribbean rhythms of soca and dancehall. He has released a number of remixes and original tracks, honing his skills alongside production partners Richie Beretta and Fellow.
In 2009, he stole the show at London’s Notting Hill Carnival with his unique Tropical Bass sound and went on to tour with Major Lazer across the UK, France, and the Netherlands. In 2010, Jillionaire traveled to the four corners of the world, starting in New Zealand then across the UK and Europe. He coordinated “Chicken n Beer”, the first ever Tropical Bass party at WMC, and his “No Shirt, No Shoes” tour across North America capped off a hectic yet successful year.
This year, he prepares to launch Feel Up Recordings - a new home for Tropical Bass and related dance music, delivering releases from a number of collaborators he has worked with over the last year and a half. He’s a correspondent for a number of blogs including Mad Decent and Okayplayer's Large Up and has appeared on Making Tracks, a documentary by National Geographic Music.
