Mystic Bill

Genre: House

Origin: United States

Bill’s move to Chicago in 1988 was crucial in the development of his DJ & Production career. Growing up in Miami, he had been involved in various parts of the music industry, from working at Flamingo Record Pool (run by Bill Kelly of WMC Fame), to playing guitar for the band “Life In Sodom” (80’s Synth/Goth Band). His interest in both House & Industrial music inspired him to make his move to the Windy City, and as far as timing, it couldn’t have been any better. Bill quickly became involved in the night scene with residency at clubs like Shelter Nightclub, Crobar, & Smart Bar. Bill is a key figure in Chicago’s second wave of House & Techno producers. He’s considered a big influence by Dj’s like Black Madonna, Kink, Axel Boman, & Matrixxman. His styles vary from current Detroit Techno & Chicago Acid, to rare House & Italo Disco tracks. Currently he frequents clubs like Panorama Bar in Berlin, and holds a weekly residency, as well as a monthly in Miami.

His studio work began with a remix of Kay Ladrae’s “Lack Of Love” with Vince Lawrence, followed by a string of releases, including an LP on Trax Records. He has worked with numerous Chicago legends like Darryl Pandy, & Shay Jones (Ministry) to name a few. He has recently relaunched two record labels with a string of releases lined up till next year. His current releases include La Vida Sigue Igual EP on Dark Entries (Savage Hymn alias), a new EP for Chi Wax records, as well as several re-issues. Current remixes include Hannah Holland – Come Correct (Get Up Recordings), Kiddy Smile – Teardrops In The Box (Defected Records), Tres Manos – Can’t Stop The Future (Cyclo Recordings), Clemm Abbot – Get More (Foreign Language Records), Lavish Habits – The Theme (Audiophile Deep), & Hieroglyphic Being – The Warning (Children Of The Box).
