DJ Atrain
http://www.chicagomusicpromotions.com/djatrain


Adrian Allen better known as DJ Atrain, has spent most of his life dedicating time and passion to the mystical art of entertainment. Years of practicing, from his parents house, DJ Atrain perfected his unique style into a powerhouse of original as well as stylish beats. Not a mere laptop DJ, which has become the fad of the day, he can change his style and reinvent his mix to suit any situation.

A-train first became interested in mixing music for people to enjoy at the early age of 5. When he turned the tender age of 8 he received his first pair of technics 1200's turntables and a Numark mixer. Three of his older siblings began teaching him the basics of mixing two records together and other dj tricks. The majority of influence came from family members. His parents loved listening to jazz and blues, two older brothers who were djs themselves, and his sister showed him how to beat juggle along with two twin brothers who always gave him new music. Influences also came from listening to superstar djs spin music on Chicago radio stations like WBMX and WGCI.

1996 was DJ Atrain's first public event which was at a friend's house, where he brought a dj coffin filled with 2 turntables and a mixer, 8 crates of records, speakers and an amp as his equipment. This event gave him the confidence to grow and nurture his craft becoming even better after performing in front of a live audience. His next event was 1998, a surprise 21st party for his twin brothers. While receiving his bachelor degree at Purdue University in West Lafayette, IN, (1999-2003) he did countless fraternity and sorority parties as well as private functions. The Boiler Room, his first club residency, is where he met a great dj/producer named Dj Steady B. It was also here that Atrain got to be known all throughout the campus and town for his unique mix styles and abilty to get the crowd in the club and keep them on the dance floor. Flash forward two years to 2005 and his next club residency was at Mr. Ricky's located outside of Chicago. During this residency is where he met four exceptional djs. Dj Smooth, Dj Eazy, Dj Dave and Dj Tysko. While doing countless parties he has played along side some tremendous djs including, Craig Loftis, Dj Emanuel and Dj Melvin Gentry.

Dj Atrain has played at numerous clubs and venues. Cherry Red, Beef and Brandy, Secrets, 50 Yard Line, Fiesta Cantina, Krush, The Muse, Neon Catus, Mango's, Club What's Up, La Parranda and The W to name a few. These venue were all various ethnicities and music genres and that is one thing Dj Atrain prides him self on is being able to adapt to any crowd and make the dance floor move. In the near future he will become a producer but promises not to skip a beat in being a great dj.
