Raised in Chicago, DJ S2 has an eclectic musical library consisting of music from Louis Armstrong to Pink Floyd. She spins Neo-Soul, R&B, Top 40, Pop and Mash-ups but her musical love is House. Growing up in Chicago she could not refuse the influence and musical creativity of House icons such as Ron Hardy, Lil Louis, Ralphie Rosario, Frankie Knuckles, Farley and many other House music pioneers.

DJ S2 is one of the founders of Earth Tone DJs (an all female DJ crew and multimedia company). She has held residency for "AFTERGLOW"at Cleos, and "CHOPPED & SCREWED" at Purgatory in Chicago.

She has also held guest spots at events such as “ SOCIALFLARE” at Sura Bistro, “DRANKINʼ Nʼ JAMMIN" at Escape Lounge, “ARTLIFE II” at Studio E, ”SESSIONS” at Cherry Red, "CHICAGO DYKE MARCH COLLECTIVE" at Evil Olive, and several "CHICAGO DIRTY GIRL" events at Lakeview Broadcasting Co./Spot 6/Angels and Kings, "DOLL HOUSE" at Wicker Well and ”FERAL FRIDAYS” at The Zoo.

DJ Slum B. of the Earth Tone DJs (Chicago)

Originally from Northern California, DJ Slum B. pumps up the volume with the smooth grooves of Neo-Soul and Hip Hop. She apprenticed under DJ S2 studying Chicago House which provided an outlet for her true love of Neo-Soul. After learning Chicago?s deep devotion to soulful House, she then propelled a new form of Chi-town!/Bay Area fusion. She believes that a sense of belonging (which music provides) is what keeps people coming back for more. After years of extensive studies in traditional arts, DJ Slum B. attended Brooks college in Sunnyvale, California where she earned a degree in Graphic Design. She is currently a Freelance Graphic Designer for a night life event promotion companies (Music-101.com) which hosted Green Dolphin?s “BOOM BOOM ROOM”, Vision Night Club?s “BASS+BEATS+RHYTHM”, La Pomme Rouge?s “RADIO PARADISO”, Spy Bar?s “STYLUS”, and Debonair Social Club?s “PGFC”, Ladies Touch Entertainment in LA/Chicago, Pimp and Push Entertainment, Luxe Entertainment, Chicago Dirty Girls, Art Life,"Doll House" Wicker Well, Tomboi Swagg, Shelikesgirlz.com, & D'alliance Entertainment. Her works have been published through Image Magazine, 5 Magazine, Boi Magazine, Gay Chicago Magazine, and Chicago Scene.

DJ Slum B. is one of the co-founders of Earth Tone DJs (an all female DJ crew and multimedia company). She has held a residency for "AFTERGLOW" at Cleos, Funky Buddha Lounge, and Soiree Bar/Bistro, "LADIES TOUCH CHICAGO" at the Mix and "CHOPPED AND SCREWED" at Purgatory Pizza.

She has also held guest spots at many local events such as “ SOCIAL FLARE” at Sura Bistro, “DRANKIN? N?
