You can't like everyone. 🎧

As long as you understand why you don't like them — that's where the challenge lives.

What did they do to you? Or what do you sense that doesn't sit well?

I know exactly why Chicago, and some of its scenes, have struggled with me.

It seeks to maintain a system that doesn't honor individuality — and is threatened by those who simply want to be themselves.

It's not just Chicago. It's fear.

Fear that you don't have the gumption to be whatever you really are, and can't accept those who dare.

So I keep building where individuality gets to breathe.

There's something interesting about tuning into a stream and hearing your own record played. Caught DJ Serqet spinning "Spawn of The Dawn (AppleJacs Fathom Speaks Rmx)" the collab with Apple Jac — for a packed crowd on iAAHradio, and it moved me watching a track built in one city land in a room in another.

This is the part of that doesn’t get referenced by my Chicago Community, but is being slowly acquired by others I thank you!

If you haven't heard my originals they are on bandcamp as well as Traxsource … Danyell Abston

Lux Is Love returns to Big Marsh for our 4th Friday residency at 5 PM. Deep cuts and grounding rhythms for the nervous system.

This round is a sonic collaboration with Fathom DJ, Lux Listenings, and Big Marsh. No script, no set list, just a deliberate blend of deep house, soulful house, and low log drum amapiano pulled for the room. Sound, outdoors, presented with Friends of Big Marsh and Chicago Park District.

Can't make it to the Marsh or need to carry the energy with you? The full somatic visualizer mix is live now on the Fathom DJ YouTube channel, built to support your daily flow, focus, and decompression: https://youtu.be/iKMcmXhUnrc

Free, family friendly, and worth the trip to 11559 S Stony Island. Come sit in the grass and let the set take you somewhere. Bring someone who needs a variance of vibes.

Somewhere between a swirl and a soundcheck, that's where you'll find me.

As we ease into Libra season, Fathom DJ and Lux Listenings are heading to CLINK & SIP Festival's 5th anniversary; five years of celebrating women, five years of the Sip & Empower Foundation showing up for its community, and a whole lot of good pairing.

This is the work Lux Listenings was built around: sound curated in conversation with what's in your glass, not just played over it. It's the same approach behind our monthly Lux Pours series at Park Manor 75, and it's what you can expect from this set. If you're an independent beverage brand looking for that kind of pairing and activation partnership, consider this your invitation to connect.

Join us Sunday, September 20 from 3 to 8 PM at Morgan MFG in Chicago. Drinks, food, live music, and a whole community raising a glass together. Bring someone who deserves a good pour and a better playlist. Danyell Abston

Cheapest date I've had in a while, and it delivered. Threw a mix together on the Numark Party Mix 3 and I'm still thinking about how it came out. Proof you don't need the full rig to catch a feeling, just the right two hours and something worth playing.

Full mix coming soon. Stay tuned Danyell Abston

Lux Listenings isn't just a music brand. It's an ecosystem.

We service DJs and venues who are still figuring out where they fit in a landscape that often rewards ego over infrastructure. That's the gap we exist to close.

Being the underdog means building the pipeline; connecting talent, venues, and hospitality in a way that outlasts any single event or booking. It means investing in sound, people and spaces that get overlooked, not because it's easy, but because the ecosystem doesn't grow without it.

This is bigger than a set. It's a system, built with intention, for the long run.

Chicago's music scene has long operated inside rigid genre lines; Lux Listenings exists to break that mold.

Our mission is genre inclusivity; experiences can move to include various vibes, because good music doesn't answer to category.

We're also committed to showcasing underrepresented DJs; the ones shaping sound in this city without the platform they've earned. Lux Listenings is a space built to change that.

This is bigger than a party. It's a stance on what Chicago's sound culture can become.
