DJ Shadan

Producer/Resident DJ

Dan Shade, aka SHĀDAN, grew up in Michigan, the birthplace of Techno, and now calls Chicago—the birthplace of House music—his home. His sound is an ever-evolving blend of influences across every genre, weaving together hypnotic, ethereal intricacies that transform each track into something distinctly his own. SHĀDAN's approach to DJing is heavily inspired by jam bands, whose sweeping, improvised compositions create multi-layered, ever-shifting sonic landscapes. Drawing on these influences, SHĀDAN tells stories with his mixes, building dynamic peaks and valleys that keep listeners on the edge of their seats.


For SHĀDAN, subverting monotony is key to uncovering deeper truths in music. Every set, every performance, and every composition is designed to break free from the conventional, offering something new, unexpected, and exciting. Whether it's the seamless blending of genres or the improvisational layers he introduces, nothing about SHĀDAN’s music can be described as ordinary—it's always evolving, always pushing boundaries, and always leaving listeners with an unforgettable experience.
