Christopher Lawrence is an American recognized as a DJ and producer, specializing in progressive trance music. He has released 7 mix CDs since 1997.

Dubbed "A Superstar DJ" by the US’s URB, and “One Of The Most Popular DJs On The Global Circuit” by DJ Magazine, Christopher Lawrence is a respected and popular name in electronic dance music today.

Christopher's production skills have coupled with his ability to appeal to international dance floors with tough techno trance sets, resulting in frequent appearances worldwide. Once an outsider in a world dominated by European and UK DJs, Lawrence is now considered a member of the top tier in international dance music. He is now considered one of the key global players and one of America’s leading dance music exports, playing main stage at many of the world’s biggest festivals and superclubs. As evidence of this, Christopher was the only US DJ invited to headline all three of the inaugural Ministry Of Sound, Cream and Gatecrasher tours of America.

Christopher Lawrence is respected among his fans for playing trance sets without any musical clichés, and he strives to avoid chasing popular musical trends. Some people have referred him as the American Paul Van Dyk.
