Hello and welcome to this MayDay special mix by Justin Schumacher. Born and raised in Brooklyn, NY by way of The Bronx, Justin Schumacher is a product of 90s hip hop and rave culture. After over a decade of hard work and dedication he has emerged as one of NYC's most promising talents.
What can you tell us about this mix brother?
I mixed in some deeper grooves in this mix alongside the usual raw bangin stuff.
How is the underground techno scene in NY these days?
The techno scene is pretty great here. Can’t complain. So many clubs, warehouses and loft spaces with wicked lineups week in and week out. It's booming here right now.
Which clubs is keeping it real and worth checking out?
Output of course. That place is just the perfect environment for techno. Such a dope club with an insane system. Verboten just opened up in Brooklyn as well. Sankeys/Spektrum has had some great lineups so far....also a really nice club. Some of the best parties are in these interesting warehouse and loft spaces tucked away in corners of the metropolis. the afterhours scene is also phenomenal.
What/who influences your style?
I draw inspiration from all angles, eras, and regions of techno and house music. But my sound is geared primarily for the dancefloor. DJ's like Ben Sims, Dave Clarke, Jeff Mills, Ben Klock, DVS!.....those guys throw down the way I like it best.
What is your techno dream?
Well I'll say what everyone says first and that's to play at Berghain haha. But also to be able to quit my dayjob and do music in general full time. Whether that's touring around the world djing, producing forward thinking techno and house music, and hip hop as well. That's the goal.
