Hi!

My name is Shay and I’m a techno DJ and producer from Boise, based in Los Angeles. I’ve signed to mau5trap and Factory 93 (Insomniac), and played at festivals like Amsterdam Dance Event and Beyond Wonderland. I’m so excited to come back to play for you this weekend!

While I haven’t lived in Boise since I was 18, I was born and raised there. I grew up having discovered techno and house purely by chance when I was a kid. It wasn’t as commonplace to listen to it - especially for my classmates and family members I was around. I soon bought a “How to DJ” book from Barnes & Nobles with bday money and after graduating high school, ended up heading to a bigger city. Then Mexico for 5 years.

Anyway, in-between that time and now, I’m happy to see that Boise now has a thriving electronic music scene. It’s crazy to think that after playing in all kinds of wild places, I’m able to come back and share the music I love and produce in my hometown.

I’ll leave one of my mixes from playing at Sisyphos in Berlin last year in the comments - I hope you enjoy and hope to see you this Saturday at The Shrine! <3
