DJ Christopher Andrew Makes Appearance



Last Friday was a memorable one indeed. My former babysitter and longtime friend, DJ Christopher Andrew made his first live appearance in over a year at The Divided Sky in Lake Tahoe.

People came from all over the lake to see Christopher Andrew mix his funky house creations. He had them shaking it on the floor and grooving in their booths for the 2 hour set. A standing ovation at the end of the night proved that So. Lake Tahoe is ready for more DJ Christopher Andrew.

I had the opportunity to sit down with the 5'6 DJ and ask him a few questions.


  • What went through your mind when organizing your play list?

"Picking the tracks was pretty easy. There have been tons of great tracks released lately, so I just picked my favorites. I picked some that are more obscure (to expose sounds that most people don't hear), and made sure all tracks were mixed within their key. Looking at the set as a whole; I move through different sounds to take the crowd down a road they have never traveled."



  • Describe the style of music played.



"As a whole I play San Francisco style funky house music. Some people will call this sound "jackin", but the blend of funk, organic instruments, deep vocals, and tech beats is all within the SF style I love. "



  • Where can we hear your beats?


"People interested in hearing my sound can email me at andrew@rainurbana.com and request a mix."




  • What is your DJ name and who is your crew?


"My DJ name is Christopher Andrew and am a partner in Desolation Recordings out of South Lake Tahoe."



Thanks for your time little buddy, keep it up!
