Born in Mexico and raised in Chicago, Jes has been exposed to the Chicago music culture since the early 80’s. It was very early on when Jes realized his passion for music and began working on his musical career. Growing up on the West side of Chicago, Jes saw his peers choosing a lifestyle of gangs and guns with daily activity of violence. It was then that Jes decided to lead a life of musical expression and lift himself to a higher state of being. Embracing his negative childhood exposure, Jes used that negative to propel his dreams and to fuel his drive to succeed. Fifteen years later, Jes is still continuing his path of musical creativity and has evolved into a professional dj, producer, and business owner. His passion for music still burns bright within. The Chicago underground has been moved by Jes for over ten years and he has emerged as a leading dj, producer, and remixer. Jes is an original house pioneer as shown by his long-term residency at Chicago’s infamous “the warehouse”; and he continues to be an integral part of the underground electronic scene. Jes has the technical skills and musical talent to give us all the soulful energy that only music can communicate. While his style can be varied, his quality is never compromised. The recent venture of Jes’s label, fresca recordings, with its tenth release has received well deserved media and industry attention. Jes continues to showcase and collaborate with other talent producing for labels such as NRK Sound Division, Siesta Music, and Camouflage Records. Jes keeps himself and fresca recordings involved in the cultural arts in Chicago by performing at several events for local nonprofit associations. Since the proiekt’s inception, Jes has been an integral part of the musical aspects of these events bringing art and music together to create unique environments to propel the artistic aspect of our digital culture, many sound breaking events have taken place through the Conjugate Project including, Motionness: the Chicago El Train Event, Resonance Part One: An Afternoon of Audial Stimulation in Grant Park, and the original Conjugate Project which inspired us all to continue this artistic endeavor.
