DJ Three

DJ Three is an American DJ from New York City. Three has quietly and steadily earned the respect of his peers the world over through a handful of truly unique productions and a signature DJing sound encompassing all things house, techno and beyond. This sound, a strong knowledge of tradition capped by a fondness for the cutting edge, continually puts him through a variety of tour dates that show not only diversity in audience, but a genre-bending passion for good music.^[1]

History

He’s held residencies at Florida’s legendary Simon’s and NYC’s Twilo and has played lauded guest spots with San Francisco’s Wicked Crew and the UK’s Fabric. The annual Hallucination Limited event at Miami’s Winter Music Conference and his long-running Snatch residency in Tampa, Florida are favorites of DJ’s and clubbers the world over.^[2]

Echoing his wide tastes as a DJ, his rare production output as Second-Hand Satellites, Three A.M., Montage Men has captured a not-so-common cross section of ears from deep house to techno, and all points in between. In 2003, Three launched the Hallucination Limited ^[3] imprint as a platform for other like-minded artists which this year released the critically acclaimed ^[4][5] mix CD “Hallucienda” mixed by Three himself. From veterans like Terry Francis and Rabbit in the Moon to new faces like Mount Sims, Reverse Commuter (aka apendics shuffle), 3 Channels and Butane the results have been nothing short of outstanding.
