About
DJ Sangre knew nothing about house music when he moved to Chicago in the Fall of 2003. Hailing from Denver, he had a sweet tooth for hard trance, which he DJ’d on his weekly radio program The Fringe on WNUR Streetbeat. But after a few months of spinning trance in the birthplace of house, Sangre knew it was time to change.
Beginning in the spring of 2005, he made a complete 180, abandoning his entire trance collection and replacing it with Chicago-made wax. Since then, he has continued The Fringe every Monday night on WNUR Streetbeat but under the house-friendly handle of DJ Sangre. He now spins everything from spicy latin house to smooth disco house to funky chicago underground to soulful deep house to the screaming club hits of the UK. Known for leaving the booth and dancing with clubgoers, Sangre will play and do whatever he can to take a party to the next level. His favorite labels include: Olive, Spatula City, Guesthouse, Guess Who, Fetish, Potty Mouth Music, Dubsided, Control, Ammo, Amenti, Soulfuric, Red Hot, Chiltepin Musica, .dotbleep, OM, and XL.
Sangre was also music director for Streetbeat at WNUR-FM for 2006-2007. You can listen to Sangre’s show “The Fringe” every Monday night from 10:00-11:30pm (CST) on 89.3 FM in the Chicago area or online at www.wnur.org.
