Jaq Attaque
Biografía
With 25 years of DJing under his belt, long time Chicago stalwart Rupert Murray, returns under a new project, Jaq Attaque. He has taken all that he’s learned over the years, running the gamut of electronic music, and stretched dance music to the limits of how it can all fit together. Beginning from the lynchpin of house and techno, his sets can span from RnB to Hardcore and most everything in between.
He’s spent the four years leading up to the pandemic working as The Blessed Madonna’s production partner, cranking out remixes and co-producing her single, “He Is The Voice I Hear” and soon to be released debut album.
Jaq Attaque has had scattered releases over the past 2 decades under numerous monikers and groups including: Local Hero, Noise Floor Crew, TRUSTUS, War Games, aKademy and, most recently, SIGSALY.
As a DJ, Jaq Attaque’s sets are relentless, technical, playful, and unpredictable. While his tastes are rooted in Midwestern house and techno, he has a love for finding great, overlooked tracks from oft dismissed genres from all over dance music.
As a Producer, he excels in finding the music in everyday sounds. He is adept and both the technical engineering elements and the honest unpolished artistry that balances his productions. His sound is refined, rich, and detailed (thanks in part to his background in the physics of acoustics) and has been apparent in the music of the numerous artists for whom he has produced, mixed, and engineered.
