He is resident DJ at the legendary Chicago nightclub Smart Bar. Chrissy is also a Kansas City native and a KJHK alum. He has performed under several names including Murderbot, Chris E Pants, Chrissy Murderbot, and now just Chrissy. His encyclopedic knowledge of dance music is documented on his \u201cMy Year of Mixtapes\u201d blog, which you should check out if you aren\u2019t already familiar with it.<\/p>\n<p>This disc includes \u201cThe Right to Dance with Somebody\u201d single, the \u201cJoin Me\u201d single (a collaboration with former Lawrencian Miles Bonny), and the Growl EP (a collaboration with Shaun Wright of Hercules &amp; Love Affair). Within these tracks you will find disco-influenced Chicago house with all kinds of hidden treats for the discerning listener. Look out for a variety of beat styles, Moroder-esque synths, vintage disco samples, a hilarious and surprising guitar riff, and deliberately cheesy vocal tracks.<br \/>\n<b><br \/>\nRecommended If You Like: Hercules &amp; Love Affair, Frankie Knuckles, Giorgio Moroder, house music, Hi-NRG<br \/>\n<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Recommended Tracks: 3 (Join Me), 1 (The Right to Dance with Somebody), 4 (Join Me Rahaanre-edit), 5 (Get It), 6 (Growl feat.
