	<itunes:summary><![CDATA[Picking up the guitar in his early teens, Jon Quinn (known to his friends as Jake) played rhythm guitar for a number of bands into his early twenties. He attributes the strong sense of composition apparent in his sets to the many hours he spent writing songs for these bands. He briefly ventured into Chicago’s rave scene about the same time he was learning to play guitar but the pull of electronic music didn’t take hold until he reached legal club going age. PURE was running Thursday and Saturday nights at Redno5 and bringing all the best underground progressive house. Acts like Anthony Pappa, Deep Dish, and Dave Seaman played an essential role in developing Quinn’s ear. He was also a regular at Bigwig's Bass by the Pound D'n' B Wednesday nights where he developed a taste for the grittier side of electronic music. Weekends that started on Wednesday and didn't end until sometime Sunday afternoon were rough but proved crucial in developing Quinn's range. He bought his first pair of turntables just days after his 21st birthday and stuck with mixing strictly on vinyl for just shy of a decade. Always the late adopter, he started mixing on CDJs right about the same time his cohorts were familiarizing themselves with Traktor and Ableton. In the last year, however, Quinn has taken to Traktor and it’s capabilities really help his creativity shine though.
Now, with an ear for harmonic diversity and deep grooves, Jon Quinn’s eclectic style ranges from deep Dutch tech-house to all out bangin' progressive. Always moving with intention, he artistically highlights each individual production while crafting his sets in a way that yields a sound that’s more than the sum of its parts. With a consistent emphasis on varied bass lines and a range of beat structure, it’s no surprise that Chicago’s local promoters are taking notice. Now a regular at Primary Chicago as Aural Matrix’s resident DJ, Quinn has had the good fortune of opening for two of his primary influences this year – Deepfunk and Luis Junior. With bookings for 2014 including an opening set for Chris Fortier, Marcelo Vasami, and Henry Saiz, one gets the sense that – while it’s been a long time coming – this guy’s just getting started.]]></itunes:summary>

For Tracklist check my facebook page at www.facebook.com/dj.jon.quinn<br />
<br />
When compiling tracks for this set I aimed to pay homage to Chris's roots in New York City and in progressive house (before progressive became a dirty word). But the truth is, Chris's style can't be pinned down to a specific genre so I felt neither should the set I played before him. The set is thus a bit of a genre fucker covering house, techno, and progressive with hints of dub, acid, and freestyle thrown in for good measure. enjoy;)<br />

            <description><![CDATA[When Nick asked me to put a mix together for his Proton radio show I was, to put it lightly, pretty damn excited. I had already been compiling tracks for a new installment of my Tek-gnosis series so I used that as a launch pad for this mix. I knew I wanted to do something special for this so I configured my Traktor A6 for 4 decks – three through an external mixer and one to be mixed internally. What emerged can be described as a progressive mix of epic tech-house. Starting with CoMa’s ‘The Great Escape’ and quickly moving into a live mash-up of Ripperton’s remix of ‘Why Don’t Ya’ by Baikal with ‘Planetario’ by Avatism and Mind Against, the mixing is pretty heavy at first. But the structural spaciousness of the two tracks allows for a deep mix with few overlapping frequencies. I used a similar technique when layering the beatless version of Broombeck’s ‘Two Faces’ over George Fitgerald’s ‘Bad Aura’ though fewer hot cues were required. Those tracks mix so well together you’d think they were written with each other in mind. After a pretty dark first thirty minutes, I wanted to up the energy and make the mix a little more dancefloor oriented. Maceo Plex’s ‘Going Back’ made that pretty easy. I used the Cid Inc remix of Cimmerian primarily as a tool to change key and mix out of the relatively dj-unfriendly ending of ‘Mastadon’ (Mind Against remix), at which point I also slowed down the pace of the mixing. After moving through 12 tracks in roughly forty minutes, I use the last twenty-three minutes to allow for some epic tech-house tracks to work their magic. Daso’s ‘Resonate’ might, at the eleven-point-ninth minute, become track of the year for me. What a beautifully composed and lush production. Finally, Pachanga Boys remix of Royksopp’s ‘Running to the Sea’. I knew I wanted to close with this but was unsure if I was going to be able to get to it coherently. ‘Resonate’ saved the day and allowed me to bring in this massive closer just as I hoped. I’m really happy with how this mix turned out and even more thankful for the support given to me by Nick. I hope you enjoy listening as much as I enjoyed putting this one together.]]></description>

I had already been compiling tracks for a new installment of my Tek-gnosis series so I used that as a launch pad for this mix.
