Chicago born and bred DJ/Producer Joseph Manumaleuna aka DJ Hyperactive needs little introduction to those versed in the history of techno. As one of Daft Punk's "Teachers" and "brother of the humble" according to Resident Advisor, his contributions to the underground continue to span generations.
Honing his skills in the highly influential scene and sound of Chicago in the early 90s, DJ Hyperactive gained instant international recognition and has since gone on to play the most legendary and lauded events and venues over the last 30 years, such as Orbit (Leeds), Liquid Room (Tokyo), Love Parade, Tresor & Berghain (Berlin), Shelter & Smartbar (Chicago), Observe/Scene & Movement (Detroit), Basement & Output (Brooklyn), and the list doesn't stop there.
Over the course of his career, he has produced over 100 release and numerous remixes, including classics such as "Venus" & "Wide Open" (Missile), "25HRs" (Droid), "Music Box" (4Trk), "Reptilian Tank" & "Chicago" (Contact), Drop Bass, Communique, Hybrid, Truncate, Figure, Plus 8, CLR, Blank Code, Impact Mechanics, Illegal Alien, to name a few.
DJ Hyperactive returned to Chicago 2013 to reconnect with his family and musical roots. His story continues with the difference being the experience and perspective that only a true veteran can possess.
