  • Chicago veteran Traxman announces first overseas tour in three years image
  • Traxman has announced five European dates plus a night in Mexico City as part of his Get It Moving tour. Celebrated for his influence on the juke, footwork and ghetto house scenes, the Chicago DJ hasn't played outside the US since February 2020. His European dates start at the Ying Yang Club in Biel, Switzerland, on January 27th, followed by appearances on Fribourg's TRNSTN Radio on January 30th and RaBe Radio Bern on February 1st. In Berlin, Traxman will play an in-store at record shop Sound Metaphors on February 3rd, before the European leg of the tour rounds out with a set at Sameheads on February 4th. After one night in Chicago (Amberg Hall on February 10th), the tour culminates on February 25th at a Funkmasterz event in Mexico City. Hailing from the West Side of Chicago, Corky "Traxman" Strong is one of the longest-serving producers working in ghetto house and footwork, with releases stretching back to the '90s on labels such as Dance Mania, Planet Mu and Moveltraxx. Listen to Traxman's RA Podcast from 2014.
