Chrissy is a genre-bending DJ/producer with releases on 17 Steps, Dansu Discs, Super Rhythm Trax, Pets Recordings, Chiwax, Classic, Freerange, Razor N Tape, Nervous, and more. He specializes in rave-influenced sounds, Chicago house, and disco, but his two-decade career has ranged from jungle to footwork to freestyle, with gigs at Panorama Bar, Smartbar (where he held a residency from 2015-2018), and a residency at San Francisco’s oldest and most storied queer club, The Stud.

Chrissy is also a well-regarded voice on dance music history—he ran the popular “My Year of Mixtapes” blog, posting original genre-focused DJ mixes every week for a year. He wrote the liner notes for Hardcore Traxx: Dance Mania Records 1986-1997, and has written about dance music history for RBMA, XLR8R, and Electronic Beats.

His new album, Physical Release, is out now Hooversound Recordings, with a follow-up EP on Sorry Records planned for 2022.
