Traxx

**Traxx** (aka Traxman) is a Chicago-born producer and footwork pioneer who’s been shaping the city’s underground electronic scene for decades. Known for his frenetic rhythms, soulful chops, and genre-pushing beats, he’s a key figure in the Teklife collective, helping to globalize footwork’s raw, high-energy sound. His music often blends gritty samples with hyperkinetic drum programming, creating tracks that feel both nostalgic and futurist.

With recent releases like *Energy in Motion* (2023) and *Rivers of Life*, Traxx keeps evolving his style while staying rooted in footwork’s DIY ethos. Whether he’s dropping dancefloor missiles like *Shake Em Off* or introspective cuts like *Spiritual War*, his work pulses with the spontaneity and passion that’s made him a cult hero in electronic music.
