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.

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.
