DJ Three
Three is an American DJ from Pittsburgh with a DJing sound encompassing house, techno and beyond. This sound, a strong knowledge of tradition capped with the cutting edge, lends itself to a diverse audience and "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 [a]pendics.shuffle), 3 Channels and Butane the results have been nothing short of outstanding. Three officially launched his new label Hallucienda in 2014 releasing the Phono Obscura compilation and Reverse Commuter's Exposure album. [6]
