Jon Delerious (Calgary Canada)
Deep House / Nordic Trax - FDCO 416
H
is style can be described as the deep house sound, the funky house sound. Music was always important to Jon, having learned to play drums as well as guitar at a very early age. Having been influenced early by hip hop and disco Jon later took interest in afro cuban jazz before finally settling in with house. Djing for over 10 years Jon Delerious continues to refine his skills as one of Canada's leading musical innovators. Starting on a set of home turntables and a mixer he picked up at radio shack, Jon has felt the world move as his own breed of house music has surfaced. His first Ep on Canada's acclaimed Nordic Trax label (the "Heads Down EP" ) has recently brought Jon some international sucess and exposure. The EP has been gaining strong chart support from artist's like Laurent Garnier, Johnny Fiasco, George T, Ali B, Gilles Peterson, Red Snapper, and Charles Webster to name a few. The Ep was also licensed to Global Underground for Lee Burridge's nubreed CD as well as H-Foundation for their Mekka tour CD. Jon is poised & ready to take listeners somewhere they have never been before. Sharing the limelight with Jon have been such influential minds as Halo Varga, John Acquaviva, Christian Smith, Bad Boy Bill, Eddie Richards, Derick Carter, Mistress Barbara, Nick Holder, Ritchie Hawtin, DJ Dan, Trevor Rockliffe, Johnny Fiasco, DJ Sneak, Mark Farina, DJ Swamp, and Dj Disciple among others. One thing is for certain about Jon, he has carved out a place in the studio and in the Dj booth that is uniquely his own.
