Biography
** Information of productions Duo "Kings of Class" (Bobby De Maria & Tsunami) coming soon... Just Signed to Hatrax Records.
DJ Bobby De Maria
Four years ago, Bobby De Maria randomly bought a set of turntables from a buddy with little to no knowledge of how they worked, or how to use them. Just two months later, Bobby began showing up at frat houses at Michigan State and offering to DJ their parties. Many of the house’s began using Bobby as their DJ. In November of 2007, about six months after buying his turntables, Bobby went to a club in Lansing, Michigan called Excel and confidently booked his first guest spot.
Upon arriving to his first set, Bobby realized he literally still had no idea how to beat match. After playing about twenty minutes of a choppy, nasty, off beat hip-hop set, a random club go-er approached Bobby with a CD and said, “Try This”. The CD was full of House Music! That night at Excel, Bobby learned to beat match on the spot, and grew familiar with what a mix should sound like. That was the night Bobby found his calling as a DJ, and realized his true passion in life. House Music.
… Since his endeavors in frat houses and his move back to Chicago three years ago, Bobby’s career as a nationally known/ respected DJ and Producer has reached an all time high…

Tiesto show release
[+ Show ]
TIËSTO 9 p.m. Sunday, The Rave, 2401 W. Wisconsin Ave. $40 and $50 at the box office (414) 342-72...TIËSTO
9 p.m. Sunday, The Rave, 2401 W. Wisconsin Ave. $40 and $50 at the box office (414) 342-7283 and through Ticketmaster, (800) 745-3000 and ticketmaster.com.
The Sunday night immediately after Halloween is not exactly the ideal time to set up another party, but when it's being hosted by DJ Tiësto, people might find the energy to attend it anyway.
In the late 1990s, this Netherlands native rapidly became known as the foremost DJ of trance, an electronic form that seeks to engender the named alteration of consciousness. Whether or not it actually succeeds in doing so, Tiësto has found an international audience with remixes featuring Sarah McLachlan, Dave Matthews Band and more obscure artists.
This month, he issued "Kaleidoscope," a deliberately accessible album with Nelly Furtado, Calvin Harris and members of Tilly and the Wall and Sigur Rós. Much in demand as a producer and remixer, Tiësto also has a reputation for marathon live sets.
David Boggio, Alex Hall, DJ Rozz, Smashtime Super Stars - Bobby De Maria vs Tsunami and DJ Suspence are all part of the gig.
