The dynamic duo returns. More River North shenanigans with the homie Ryan Ross tonight at Untitled. Funk & Burlesque sets it off, then we shut it down. Catch me in the Champagne Dining Room spinning nothing but 90s + 00s Hip-Hop / R&B. #rivernorth #chicagonightlife #realdjing #danj #djsarenotjukeboxes (at Untitled)

Set opener. Big Boi is a surprisingly good DJ & this was one of the more memorable Hip Hop shows I've been to recently. Solid sets from all the locals too! We're hoping to bring more & more Hip Hop to the MID, so keep showing out Chicago. It all starts with your support! #bigboi #outkast #themidchicago (at the MID)

It's been a minute since I've rocked a big stage, and what better way to come back than by opening for Big Boi!? Hope to see all the friendly faces Saturday 4/22. #onedopeboy #bigboi #outkast #danj #djsarenotjukeboxes (at the MID)

Months of planning all led up to this fanboy moment. Hanging out in the green room with @shortkut was just one of many highlights from last night's DMC. Thanks to everyone who supported! #shortkut #invisiblskratchpiklz #dmcworld #danj #djlife

Let's get ready to rumble y'all! About a year ago we launched @notjukeboxes. Since then we've grown into a global brand hosting our 2nd DMC Regional AND the U.S. Supremacy Battles tonight. S/O Thomas Edison for inventing the turntable, we wouldn't be here without you! 💡🎶 #danj #djsarenotjukeboxes #dmcworld #shortkut #beatjunkies (at Lincoln Hall)

All this joking going on, thought I'd post some real shit. Catch me later rocking nothing but 90s & 00s Hip-hop at Untitled. It's like the Pandora / Spotify station you love, only mixed better by yours Trewly. #notaprilfools #iaintnojoke #beatnuts #djlife #danj (at Untitled)

One man band over here slaying... Just another night at the new job. #onemanband #frenchkiwijuice #fkj #beats (at Concord Music Hall)

When your job takes you to a Chicago musical landmark / record store, you ask no questions & embrace the task at hand. #djlife #gramaphone #recordstore #vinylcollector #housemusic

Been a rough week but am picking up the pieces & dropping some Soul heat tonight. Not only is it the homie Cold Grums bday, it's my good friends 2 year anniversary celebration, AND the long-awaited return of The Motown Party at Beauty Bar. #motown #steviewonder #beautybar #soulmusic (at Beauty Bar - Chicago)
